For Hartley Peavey, amp building is a way of life. And for a guy who built his first amplifier in 1957, there's not much he hasn't seen or done. Now, more than half a century and 180 patents later, Hartley has returned to his roots with a trio of new hand-wired amplifiers, hand built every step of the way to your specifications.

Whether we're designing in collaboration with a respected artist or developing new technologies, we focus on bringing to life the tones that appeal to players' individual ears and styles. Blues benders love our Delta Blues™. Rock and country pickers gravitate to the Classic®. Hard rock players crank the 6505®. And steel players prefer the Nashville™.

So what is the Peavey sound? As you can see, there isn't just one. The same is true of our hand built 19th Street Custom Shop amplifiers. Plug into the Sensation™, Masterpiece™ and Studio Special™, and you can embark on three unique journeys of tone discovery, with more available to adventurous players who take advantage of our custom tube, speaker and configuration options.

Hand Wired
Every 19th Street Custom Shop amplifier is wired, fitted and finished by hand, one at a time from start to finish.


Solid Cabinetry
Our custom enclosures are made of the finest solid, finger-jointed pine.
