Not bad for the price
Very good sounding amplifier with surprising volume for two EL84s. Effects loop is nice, but a bit hot. It plays nicely with higher headroom delays, but older delays might not be so happy. My Boss DD3 distorted in the loop, but my Digitech Hardwire worked fine. The emulated outputs are marginal. USB and XLR emulated outs both sounded muffled and narrow. The crunch mode drops the output, so switching between clean and crunch yields a quieter crunch sound. Reverb is just ok. But the amp really shines in its tone. It has all the tone you'd expect from a 6505-series. The clean is very nice, and can be pushed into blues territory. The crunch takes that blues territory and can go to heavy classic rock. The lead channel begins with the 80s and ends in modern high gain. EQ is very musical. Resonance and Presence are surprisingly effective for a low-wattage amp. I've actually used it at rehearsals through a 1960b 412 and had no trouble keeping up with the other guitarist's 50w head. It has its shortcomings, but overall is a great amp worth the price.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Peavey 6505MH Is a Keeper!
I purchased this mini 20 watt head on eBay based on user reviews on here and on Youtube. I ran the head through the paces and I'm quite pleased! I wish I had this when I gigged out! The clean channel sparkles and the EQ section responds nicely. The reverb adds depth to any tone you can get out of this amp. Using the crunch channel, you can dial in from slightly clean/crunchy to all out dirty and yes, it does react to your touch and the use of your volume knob. The lead channel is all you'd want it to be. Some people use a drive pedal in the front of it, but for my style it's not needed. I love the build in attenuator, headphone out/speaker defeat. This is VERY useful when you HAVE to be quiet and play. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who gigs out or plays at home.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Falls short of the original
The 6505 MH is not quite like the actual 6505. Likely due to the EL84’s, it lacks the famous grind and aggression of its bigger brother. The attack is much softer, though the actual voicing of the amp is largely the same. The clean is hard to attain without the low gain input option, but the crunch/rhythm channel is actually pretty close to the real deal. Definitely skip if you are expecting the aggressive metal tones of the 6505/5150.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Giant Little Amp
This is a great little amp for all types of music. It cleans up nice with low pre-gain and raised post-gain on the rhythm channel. It has gain for days. I tighten up the sound with an over-drive pedal. It's light weight and loud. I plug mine into a 4x12 cabinet. You can use it with band practice.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Light with a lot of might
I like this amp. It's my first mini head. Still loud enough to gig with the band. The built-in reverb and attenuation are nice. The headphone feature is stale and it could be better. It's nice to play while everyone is asleep. The foot switch stopped working after 3 weeks of playing.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Tone King disguised in a small package!
For a 20 watt amp, this thing has more features and tonal options than most of the big boys!! Just got a 4/12 cab and I could totally gig with this... whenever THAT becomes possible...this amp gets put in the bedroom amp category...it's got more gusto than amps 3 times it's size.

6505 tone at a smaller scale
Don't let the small size fool you, unlike other mini heads, the 6505MH is all valve. Previously I had a 6505+112 and didn't like the sound of it too much, I barely played it, so i sold it and got myself a 6505MH. I also got myself a Randall RD112-V30 cab with vintage 30's it makes an awesome combo! You can do any tone with this amp, from blues to hard rock, to brutal in your face metal. I am very please with my amp, and I don't have any intentions of buying another amp since the 6505MH does it all.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Mean in a small size
Got at great price. Also very good rock/high gain metal amp. Play it through two different 212 cabinets. One with vintage 30s and the other with HM75s that are like g12t75. Sounds great.

Heavy Metal Goodness.
Sounds Killer, This is a Metal AMP m/! If you desire a nice clean sound look else where. Tube Screamer and Noise Gate a must have. I removed the wood Face-plate, reversed the metal grate and put a led strip inside. My own Screws and Nuts and Washers for the Tags.
