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.
We offer many custom tolex coverings, as well as several grille cloth options. Want a two-tone with wine taurus and gray with a white pinstripe border? No problem. Don't see an option that you want? Envision your perfect amplifier and call us at 601-483-5365 ext. 1271 or contact your local authorized Peavey dealer for a quote.
Sample packets of covering material options are available upon request to evaluate before making purchase.

Below are some examples of custom amplifiers built by the Peavey custom shop. More photos coming soon!








Peavey is the only major amp manufacturer that designs and makes its own speakers. Why? It's simple: maintaining the highest standards of quality is a big job. Peavey Custom Shop amps feature our own custom-voiced, USA-made loudspeakers, but if you have an old favorite that you'd like to try instead, we also stock 17 other popular models.

![]() Specially voiced Blue Marvel® speakers are built into each Classic Series amplifier, like this Classic 30/112. |
With their responsive gain structure and warm/punch tube combination, Classic Series amps are revered by rock guitarists, blues benders and country pickers for their wide tonal versatility and 15 years of road-proven reliability.
"Peavey's Classic 50 amp has become a favorite among tubeheads, delivering great clean and overdriven sounds at a very reasonable price—and at very high volume levels. While many Classic 50 owners are proud of their ability to drown out an 800-watt bass rig, players seeking that same tube magic at a more intimate volume have turned to the Classic 30. The Classic 30 fairly glows with the wooly, ragged tone so beloved of blues and classic rock players." —Guitar One "The Classic 30 is the same solid affordable and versatile combo it has always been, but with a cool 'limited edition' look." —Vintage Guitar |
