Peavey BAM 210 *CLEAN* Includes footswitch and cover! High Res Pics!**

I have a Peavey BAM 210 in GREAT condition. In my opinion (and the opinion of many owners) these are the most versitile Combo amps ever made. 350 LOUD watts, and if you hook up an extension cab, 500 watts is possible. I used to rock this with a 4ohm 4x10 when doing outdoor events, and it was incredible. That said,the combo alone is all the amp you'll ever need for most gigs. This amp also has built in modeling, and can do an SVT, a B-15, an SWR, GK..the list goes on. It also has several built in effects...chorus, flanger, synth octaver..and a GREAT compressor. The effects are all fully adjustable, and actually sound great. The amp models are good, too. The SVT actually sounds like a real SVT; much more convincing than a VT pedal IMO. Another cool feature is that all of the knobs have led lights encircling them to show your settings. It looks AWESOME on stage, and is really great for those dark stages so you can easily make adjustments. There is also a built in tuner. Also included is the Footswitch (these go for $100 alone on ebay) and the cover. There are wheels on the back of the cab, and a built-in telescoping luggage handle so you can lean it back and roll it around like a golf bag. Google it for more info..these amps are loved.

IMO, this is the ultimate gigging amp, and is more amp than most will ever need. I'm really torn about selling it, but I'm mostly going DI through the PA these days, or using my LMIII and a small cab as a monitor. This one has been kept in my smoke-free practice space for some time now, and I need to start getting some $ some space back for baby #3!

It was always transported wearing it's cover, and was never abused (or turned up past 4 since I've owned it!). The rat-fur is pristine, this baby could pass as new.
I'm pretty firm on my price...I won't lose any sleep if it doesn't sell. Thanks!

$400 Picked up in NE Philadelphia (19116)

Would love this but shipping would kill me!

SubSectorSucker · #3 03-27-2011, 02:13 PM

Trying to keep it local for now. I may look into shipping in the future if it doesnt move, but I'm really not in a rush to sell it. I LOVE this amp

Had one of these babies, loved it, regret ever selling it. Bump for the love of the BAM!

Cool amp, I own one! Have you gigged with this guy? My band has booked a few shows in the future and I'm wondering if I should grab a head or if this guy would suit all my gigging needs.

bam rocks.

great amp , with a 15 extension , all the amp you'll ever need. wish i still had mine.

I wish peavey would bring these back. You would figure if line 6 is coming out with stuff like the LD series others should compete.

Anyways, bump for Philly bass players! Pick this amp up!

Medford Bassman · #10 05-03-2011, 02:34 PM

big question...how much does it weigh?

I do light the telescoping idea though...

srxplayer · #11 05-06-2011, 11:14 PM

Another bump.

This is one of the best amps Peavey ever made. Played through one of these several years ago at a church gig. It sounded fantastic on the SVT settings. At the time I think it was only modeling bass amp on the market. It's a much better quality amp than the Line 6 stuff.

Bump-Gasm!

i can attribute to the fact this is a wonderful amp. I have the head and it's simply amazing. The SVT (or TVS as Peavey calls it) is very very good, as well as the Peavey Max setting for clean Hi-Fi sounds.

If I didn't get a GK 1001rb-ii IK would still use this all the time, but alas, it is now my back-up.

Maybe I too should consider selling my head? Decisions...

Bump for a great combo. I bought a used one a couple years ago and I can't imagine ever needing anything else. Sound is terrific, and it is plenty loud (350W) without an extension cab. If you need more power add an extension cab for 500W @ 2 ohms. The only effect that is not so good is the octaver, which doesn't track well.

I found it was still too heavy (95lbs) for me to lift alone so I removed the amp and made it into a head, then picked up 2 Ampeg 210BXT cabs.

Really, this amp is easily worth $400, especially in this pristine condition. Don't miss out on this one

I bought one when they first came out and loved it. Sold it like a dummy, and just bought one from my local music store. Great amp and a great price. Good luck with the sale.

The OP sold it a couple of months ago.
