    Trace Elliot, then and now.

    Long story, but we do have engineering in the UK and the US as well. We also still have some manufacturing here in the US. It more or less depends on the product whether it makes sense to do here or not. The reason for this thread is I just wanted to do some recon on what true fans miss about...

    Sorry for the late reply, I was on the road in Canada and then on to Sweetwater for Gearfest, where I got to spend a lot of time with my buddy Dino from Ampeg! What a great guy and a true brand ambassador. I'm glad to see all these replies. There's some great stuff in the works and it's good...

    Hello all. Michael Smith here from Trace Elliot/Peavey. I'm curious about your experiences with Trace Elliot gear all through the years. What did you like about the old stuff that's missing from the new? Thank you!

    Peavey MiniMega 1000

    So...If this is called the MiniMega, there must be a full sized Mega in the works. :) Very curious what that might be!

    Peavey Headliner Class D amp.

    You don't have to look for the old gear, just don't buy the cheaper stuff. The VB series cabinets are fantastic, very high quality and made in the US. Yes, they are more money than the Headliner series, of course, but they are much less money than the competitor stuff. Check out the 115 and...

    Peavey Headliner... not what I expected from Peavey.

    You should try the VB series cabinets. The Headliner series is entry level stuff, like everybody has to have. The VB's are fantastic. The VB-115 has a Black Widow in it.

    peavy amps

    I played a VB-3 in at a show through the new VB-215 cabinet with the Black Widows and it killed! Really great round "old" tone, if that makes sense.

    AMERICAN made

    No doubt, so I guess the "assembled in the USA" Heritage series is more or less like free range chicken. Just a bit bigger cage!

    AMERICAN made

    The reality is that most things manufactured in the USA these days use many Chinese parts at best, and in the case of some amp companies even sub assemblies. That's why they say "assembled" in the USA. I'm sure Peavey uses as many imported parts as anyone else, because you more or less have to...
