Product Detail
Peavey Electronics shook up the guitar amplifier industry in 2008 with the original VYPYR guitar amplifier. It was a game - changer, introducing industry firsts like on - board USB, stompbox presets, a looper, 5 - effect simultaneous operation, and the revolutionary TransTube analog/digital hybrid technology. In 2012, Peavey upped the ante with the VYPYR VIP, the world's first Variable Instrument Performance amp suitable for electric, bass, and acoustic guitars. They were also the first to add instrument models to a feature - rich amplifier. Now, Peavey continues its legacy of innovation with the VYPYR X modeling amplifier. This latest addition to the groundbreaking VYPYR series has a fresh look, a top - notch cabinet design for excellent acoustic performance, and improved TransTube technology. The VYPYR X comes with Peavey's exclusive TransTube technology, providing true analog distortion that not only sounds great but also leaves processing power for effects. It can run up to 5 effects at once, making it stand out in live performances. Unlike many modeling amps with poor digital distortion and practice amp EQ, the TransTube technology emulates real tubes and fits well in a live mix. Thanks to its revolutionary cabinet design and world - class processing, you can switch between electric guitar, bass, and acoustic on the same amplifier. One amp meets all your performance needs. You can even make your electric guitar sound like an acoustic or bass. The WYSIWYG interface, a Peavey original, makes it easy to identify knob positions. When the preset changes, the LEDs around the knob show the correct position, preventing confusion. The VYPYR X gives you full access to all its features right from the front of the amp or with a footswitch (for the looper). No need to hook up a computer to edit presets or change effects. Key features include 20 Watts RMS, variable instrument input, portability, 2 instrument models, universal delay and reverb, a headphone jack, analog TransTube distortion, an 8 - custom - voiced heavy - duty speaker, 16 user - assignable presets, 12 stompbox effects with dual - parameter control, an on - board looper with an optional Sanpera footswitch, a custom cabinet for enhanced low - end response, a semi - open back for better volume and tone, a 3.5mm aux in for external audio, and 36 on - board amp models (6 acoustic and 6 bass). Unpacked weight is 20.28 lb (9.2 kg), packed weight is 22.05 lb (10 kg), packed width is 16' (40.64 cm), packed height is 9.2' (23.37 cm), and packed depth is 19.5' (22.04 cm).
Using the Peavey Vypyr X1 Guitar Modeling Amplifier is a breeze. First, plug it into a power source. You can use the variable instrument input to connect different types of guitars - electric, bass, or acoustic. Simply switch between them as you need during your performance. To select different presets, use the knobs on the front of the amp. The WYSIWYG interface makes it easy to see the settings. If you want to use the looper, you can connect the optional Sanpera footswitch. For adding external audio, use the 3.5mm aux in. When it comes to maintenance, keep the amplifier in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. If there's dust on the amp, use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it gently. Don't use any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. If you need to transport the amplifier, make sure it's packed properly in its box to prevent damage. And always follow the safety instructions in the manual when using or handling the amp.
