Peavey Transformer 112

I'm not sure when this amplifier was manufactured.
For all the styles that I play (i'm in three bands!) this little charmer makes life easy. I bought it mainly for the different amp models, although Peavey is more like SansAmp in that they give you 12 basic sounds...you EQ them into what you want. I don't use the effects other than reverb and chorus so I won't comment. Good speaker, which I have to think is a full range without much sound of its own because it has to be neutral. The headphone output is mono. Not too heavy and built solid, in the USA.

With humbuckers it is great. I don't have any single-coil guitars so no opinion. It's not noisy unless the gain is way up. Reverb sounds very good. The chorus is ok but nothing like a boss pedal. You can get almost any sound from it. Good cleans and distortions.

In the time I've had it (since 2002) there has never been any trouble.

Pretty good!

This is great. I wish I had one of these back in the late 60s when rock was experimenting with sounds. I'd be rich! Hey, this is a very good, versatile amp. Love it!

An interesting guitar amp.Pretty versatile and enough power for a small gig.The footswitch is great.Love the reverb and delay,modulation effects are ok.Got this amp for practice but it can do a lot more.Nice surprise.Wish it had an active presence control.

I am using it with a Gibson Les Paul and a Peavey Odyssey both guitars with humbuckers.I play rock and blues.You can get a good variety of tones through this thing clean and dirty.It is not noisy and can play and feel good even at low volumes thanks to the T/Dynamics control.I really like the vintage british and the modern american overdrives plus the tweed american clean tones.It's not a tube burner but if you tweak it you can get close.Not bad at all.

I've had it for about a year and it never broke down.Played with Peavey gear before and it's always been reliable.

I dealt with the company once regarding some info on my Peavey Odyssey and they were ok.Never had to repair something.

I've been playing guitar for twenty years.I use a Marshall Super Lead 100 with 4 x 12 cab, a Peavey VTM 60 with 2 x 12 cab, Peavey Transformer 112, Gibson Les Paul Standard and Peavey Odyssey.If it were stolen or lost I'd be playing sad,sad blues !!! What I really like is that I can practise at home at low volume and get a good sound and feel out of it.Keep up the good work Peavey.

Features...now there's a question. Would I say that an amp was superior because it came with a ton of digital effects with endless tweakable parameters? I think not. For me the question is simple: Does the amp in question provide the player with the tools to craft a good tone signature? Does it provide enough variety in these tone-crafting tools to be able to give the player a lot of options for good tone, depending on the style(s) he or she plays? If that's what features is about, then I have to go with a 10. This amp is very easy to use and set up for my diverse styles. It flat out does the job. I play squeaky clean, chime laden surfy, reverb stuff, 60s and 70s rock, 80s shred, 90s grunge / punk / modern and even a little White Stripes stuff. The Transformer does it all without the angst of having to endlessly scroll through menus, parameters...blah, blah, blah. Takes just minutes to set up great patches and store them. Sounds good with all my guitars. Let me put it this way...if I were going to record a CD for "XYZ record company", I might want to use a LINE 6 Vetta. As it is, I play live performances in clubs and halls. For 1/4 of the price (including a good midi controller!) I will stick to the Peavey. No one can hear the difference in a dance club...and nobody cares, either. Price / performance ratio is the best feature, by far.

Already mentioned the styles I play. Today I was rehearsing with three other guitarists. One was using a Les Paul through a nice Fender Princeton chorus, one was pushing a PRS through a Marshall combo and the third guy was playing a Nighthawk through a Peavey Transtube amp. It dawned on me that I was able to very nearly mimic each of their tone signatures with the Transformer, as I had created patches that emulate that sweet, Fender clean tone (w reverb), the famous Marshall crunch (Plexi / Greenback and JCM 800 / Vintage 30) and the Peavey Hi-Gain / Ultra tone / Sheffield 1230. Now ask yourself...just how much more do you REALLY need? I stepped on the midi-controller for some boost and phasor for soloing, then backed off for rhythm to the Marshall plexi / Greenback. Plenty of cut for solos and plenty of fat crunch for rhythm. Folks, it really doesn't get any better. You can talk yourself into a $1600 dollar amp way to easily. This amp sounds excellent for about $450. Do the math, people. Duh-NO BRAINER!

This is not my first Peavey amp. I never had any problems with any Peavey equipment I owned and cared for. Can't say the same for the Fender stuff I owned. Peavey is very reliable.

They really are the best in the business.

I still own a few old, small, tube amps and a few other solid-state amps. I own some rack gear, a lot of pedals and BBE stuff. Since I have had the Transformer 112 (for about 7 months, at the time of this review), I have become very familiar with the tone shaping functions / features / tricks and I have been able to sucessfully copy and store some of my all-time favorite amp tones in one box. (I have the PC editor software. It opens up the amp's potential and is well worth downloading-it's free)
What's It like having a lightweight, amply powered, portable, versatile amp to club with? It's like going to a gig with all my favorite amps, in one box. THAT is amazing! Of all the modelers out there, I'd rate this Peavey way up there...with the high-end VOX and LINE 6 stuff. A lot of people won't even give Peavey a second look unless it's a 5150 or the XXL, but let me tell ya...Peavey KNOWS how to do solid-state designs that bring the sound and feel of the classics to life, in their products. The "Transtube" circuit is a huge step toward the true emulation of tube tone / feel. I consider this amp to be a true sleeper in the midst of much higher priced units from other manufacturers. It's a damned shame that the amp was not marketed properly or positioned correctly during it's debut and marketing window. For those of us who now are fortunate enough to have picked one up...I doubt you'll be seeing many of us let them go. I'm keeping mine and I'd buy another one if it were lost or stolen. Are there other amps that boast better tone? Sure, but unfortunately they simply are priced so high as to make them unreachable for the average working musician, like myself who has been playing in clubs and on "B" stages for 25 years. The Transformer gives me all of these wonderful amps for $450. I figure I saved somewhere in the neighborhood of 3500 bucks, PLUS another 25 grand for a great big van to haul it around in! Fantastic value? HELL YES!!!

Made in 2000. The best features of this amp are 1. Analog amp with REAL amp sound. 2. Free footswitch. 3. Easy to set up and use. Effects are not the best but I'm comparing them to your standard digital rack processor. "Best" is subjective...for my taste, the effects are fine, since I use a little reverb and maybe an occasional delay. Players who are majorly anal about creating complex effect algorithms will be better off elsewhere. The reverb is digital, but it's very good. The variety of sounds is adequate. I use this amp for live performances. Great features

I run a variety of guitars through my Transformer. Since I prefer the sound of my Les Pauls, I have to say that the patches I set up for them sound awesome. I never try to emulate this or that kind of amp, I just set up patches to sound good and save them. For someone like me, this amp is perfect. With my Strats I have to use different amp models, but I'm able to get a very woody, strat tone going with them. It has all I need to create great sounding patches and nothing I don't need. Simple to get great sounds from this amp.

Peavey is reliable.

They are very good. I've been to the unofficial website and it is great. The software update is worth downloading and playing with.

I own a lot of gear. I started playing seriously in the mid 80s, but I started playing in the 60s. This amp is my main amp nowadays because it contains the tones of all my other amps (or nearly so) and I can step on a switch to get them all. I love this amp because it's not complicated, not too heavy to move around and it sounds so good. Yes, I'd buy it again.

I think it was manufactured in 1999. I think this amp is sort of like a 12 channel amp with lots of effects and 16 different patch locations. Anyway, you can look at the other reviews for all the features. The effects are the typical ones you'd expect, with reverb, delay/echo and modulation stuff grouped seperately. Fifty watts with T Dynamics to bring poweramp levels from 10 to 100 percent. Plenty loud for what I do. I have the newer software level and I create patches with the software and a PC. I highly recommend this. It extends the amp into a whole 'nother realm.

I use this with strats, Ibanez RG series guitars, LP and SG copies and some Turser jazzboxes. Classic Rock and hard rock is the style I mostly play. I use clean mostly but I use some distortion, too. One thing I notice about this amp is that it can be setup to keep the sound of the guitar intact or it can be setup to create a sound that makes all my guitars sound the same. This is a handy thing. Noise-wise it's not bad except at high gain levels, which is what you'd expect for any amp. I am particularly impressed with the clean tones of this amp. They are very nice and extremely adjustable for country twang to jazzy warm. Sounds good for single coil pups or humbuckers. Bear in mind that I'm reviewing this amp with the full software package in play when creating presets. This is a totally free feature (download it from Peavey's website) that adds some cool stuff to the tone and gain circuits. It's very easy to use and you can create and store presets on the amp AND in the computer. As a stand-alone I rate it as a 8-9 but in the framework of the software and a PC...I gotta give it a 10. So I'll compromise with a 9 in this category.

Had a problem with the pedal. They took care of me quick and with no charge. That's the only problem I had. It was a minor problem with the pedal cable, actually. Peavey makes reliable products. I own several and have never had any serious problem.

Perfect in all respects.

This amp is highly underrated if you ask me. I use it to gig with and as a rehearsal amp. It gets a lot of work. Great amp. I've been playing since 1983. I'd buy another one.

Made in 2000 I think. This has 12 models and cabinet switching. I never did the math but let's just say there's plenty of versatility when you switch models with cabinets. The stock speaker sounds surprisingly good. Plenty loud enough to gig with. Wish it had a stereo headphone jack (the 212 version does) but it's really not a stereo amp so maybe I'm asking for too much. The amp models are good starts. You have to take it from there to create your own sounds, which is easy to do. Excellent sounds for a SS amp. Decent effects section. Excellent midi-controller.

Teles, Strats and a few choice Gibsons. I have set up presets for the different types of guitars I use but it's very easy to do that with this amp. To be honest, I don't do a lot of switching between presets during a song. I use the boost for solos but that's about it.
As far as sounding like the amps that are modeled, who cares? I can make the amp sound like just about any other amp I want by fiddling around with it and storing the newly created "amp." That's the beauty of this. It can be set up to do anything.
By far, my favorite feature is how it lets the true sound of my guitars come through. I don't use a lot of distortion or effects and the versatility of the clean to just slightly overdriven amp types suits my styles perfectly. If I want a little chorus or tremolo, I can set them up in the EFX mode and step on a switch. Easy. Mind you, for the shredders there's a lot of hardcore sounds available too.
I play classic blues, rock and surf. My styles call for clarity and a lot of chord & note definition. The Transformer allows me to step on a footswitch and reliably cop an amp that perfectly suits my guitar's sound. That's what I was looking for when I started hunting for a modeling amp. The Peavey Transformer is the only amp out there that stays true to the guitar, which is why I chose Peavey.
Like most amps, the Transformer sounds best at higher volumes.

So far so good.

Here is where the men are seperated from the boys. I've emailed them and called them. They have been more like friends than customer service reps.
The amp's designer has his own webpage and he answers mail personally. Impossibly good service and customer service.

I have 20+ years of playing & gigging behind me. I wish I had one of these when I started out. Would have saved me a lot of money!
I compared the line 6 and Millenium (Digitech) amps to this when I was hunting for a modeler. Of the products available in 2000, there was no comparison. Peavey was superior in sound, hands down. Now there are other modeling amps that sound like real amps, too. I lke the Behringer and Vetta modeling amps. I would buy one. As it is, the Peavey does what I need it to do, very well. I'd buy another one for the features, sound and price.
Right now I own a Laney LC 15 and a Newcomb 12 watt tube amp that I made from an old record player chassis. They are nice sounding amps but nowhere near as versatile as the Transformer.

Mine is a 2000 model, I think. Twelve starting points (amp models) from which to choose. Effects are sparse and not really outstanding at all, which is a good thing because I want to depend on the tone and power to get my thing across, not a bunch of effects. Having a bunch of cheesy effects doesn't float my boat.
This has 16 different preset locations for storing your selected sounds. I use 8 regularly and with the 2nd set of storable preset parameters, I have gain boost, reverb, modulated effects and delay settings on standby for each preset. This is all that I need to get the job done. (What's the point of having 128 choices? Nobody ever uses more than a handful, it seems to me.)
Has an effects loop, headphone jack and master volume & master power (power dynamics.) For building the right sounds, this amp has all you'll ever need.

Les Paul and Strat. I mostly use a Les Paul for gigging. In terms of settings, I like to have a blackfaced Fender Super Reverb sound, a crunchy Marshall JCM sound, a clean Peavey Classic sound and a nice VOX, class A sound. I can get them all with this amp.
As for the great tube vs SS debate, I've gotten over the tube thing. Just give me a good foundation for building my sound and I'll do the rest. Solid state amps have come a long, long way and Peavey is on the cutting edge of the SS tone thing with the Transtube stuff.
As far as the different models go, I suggest that Transformer 112 owners buy an A/B/Y box and compare the Transformer to their favorite amps in an A/B "side-by-side" test. That's what I did with a 66 Super, a Marshall JCM 900, a Peavey Classic 30 and a VOX AC30. I was pleasantly AMAZED at how close I could get to the sounds of these classic amps. Just punch the store button and you've got your favorites saved in the Transformer. With these 4 basic preset sounds I can cover all that I want to do. I have two sets of these 4 settings with the post-gain volume set being the only difference between the two sets of four.
Basically, this amp operates as if it had 16 different "channels" to choose from.
The Transformer has a bit of hiss at higher preamp gain levels. Not really a big deal. There is a built in noise gate that is very effective. There is a tiny bit of breakup at high volumes and 100% power, on the clean settings. The overdrive and distortion capabilities are pretty intense and can get brutal. Feedback is controllable from the guitar volume. The picking nuances come through on the clean to overdrive settings.
I don't use a lot of effects but the reverb and delay settings are both usable and the modulated effects are okay, too. If effects drenched presets are your thing, you can create them.
By the way, I tried out a Transformer 212 too. It has a nice stereo sound but not nice enough to offset the price / weight factors, IMHO. You can run the Transformer 112 in stereo if you want. (I use an old 30 watt Crate as my slave amp in this configuration. Sounds fine.) The bottom line with the Transformer 112 is that it is versatile, compact, lightweight and sounds like a lot of great amps.

Bank One, Patch #4 drops the pre-gain parameter regularly on some models stored there. I just don't store those models there. That's the only glitch. The pot shafts are plastic. Gotta be careful with her.

Great web page. The designers have a web page, too. Cool. Software is available (for free) to update and expand the functions. Never had it in the shop.

Overall, I like Peavey products. Like a lot of people, I thought Peavey was a low-budget, junk-amp manufacturer for a long time. I never bothered to even try them out. When I did, I was surprised at the way they sounded. I bought my first Peavey amp two years ago, mainly because the Transtube thing sounded excellent. Now I own three of thier amps; two SS and one tube amp. I like the way they voice their amps and I like the different approach to things that Peavey takes. The Transformer is different than most of the modelers out there in that it gives the user a bunch of possibilities instead of trying to nail perfect renditions of classic amps. That's more in line with my way of doing things. I would buy another one of these, over the competition.

I reviewed this amp last year. Now, I have some playing time under my belt with it so...Here we go, again.
Twelve amp models?the usual stuff?Peavey gives you what you need to emulate amps and cabinets, allowing you to mix and match them. As "raw" canvasses on which to paint your own, personal amp "pictures" I have to say the amp models and cabinet type renditions are pretty good. Sixteen presets (32 if you count the second set of preamp, tone and effects settings that the footswitch allows you to set up) to create and choose from) PLUS the 16 factory settings. MIDI controller included. Lightweight cabinet. Plenty of power?loud enough for stand-alone use. It mics up very well, too

Let?s start at the preamp, which has high and low input impedance jacks. I use the low input with humbucking pickups. As for the gain pot (good old Peavey pre-gain), it serves up the same gain structure as the amp type being modeled. Fine job of it, too. (Using the "TWEED" amp model for example, I was able to put together 4 distinct clean textures, each of which was a winner. Same goes for the other 11 amp model types. Get it?) Suffice it to say that the versatility of the models & cabinets makes for a wide range of possible tone palettes to choose from. (Can you say virtually endless??!)
It?s also very easy-surprisingly easy-to get this thing up-and-running from the get-go... you?ll be building favorites in no time. More importantly, you?ll be SAVING and KEEPING them because this machine has a real analog preamplifier to play with, which makes your presets breathe and flex with your pick attack and your guitar?s volume & tone pot settings. This is a feature that is worth the price of admission: it?s a real preamp instead of a virtual electron generator, like TRON. Post gain is the channel volume and sets the preset level.
The passive tone controls available on most of the amp models mimic the actual tone stacks of the amp types offered?a nice touch that saves editing time and gives the user yet another "quick & easy" tone shaping tool. Straight to the point, without the need for a doctorate and a 50 page tutorial. The active tone stacks on some models are EXTREMELY sensitive. Trust me, you can make the darkest, wide-bodied jazzbox sound like a Telecaster if that?s what you want, with the active controls. Otherwise (when used tastefully, NOT in the extreme) the tone controls allow for the wood & electronics of the guitar to show their personalities. This feature ALONE is worth the price of admission.

Okay?on to the effects section. If you?re one for having a million parameters, each with a million adjustable sub parameters? then what you really want is a computer hooked up to a speaker. (The Peavey Transformer is NOT for you guys. You guys want the NASA, white lab coat models.)
The effects section on the Transformer gives you only what you need to color the tone, nicely?they are not overpowering and certainly NOT NASA approved. I don?t use them very much, except for reverb and delay?and only sparingly in my presets. The modulation stuff is adequate, even fun to mess with, but this is an amp that is pretty much a performance player?s amp as opposed to a NASA approved mainframe computer with a connected speaker. I?d rather PLAY MY GUITAR than program a computer.

Onto the power amp section. This is where Peavey shines. I don?t know how they get so much power from such a nice, compact machine but they do it, real well. Master volume is the way to go with this class of amp as it allows you to dime the power section and use the T-Dynamics to influence compression, top end presence and overall power level. It?s good for sculpting the SPL to the venue, if you know what I mean. Transtube, T-dynamics power attenuation is a very happening thing for moving from stage volume to bedroom volume, too. I can cop harmonic feedback at levels you can?t even hear in the very next

Blah, blah?double blah. Tone is in the ear of the beholder, so this is MY opinion. I?ve played a long time and I know what I like. Once again let me say that this is a performance player?s amp. Sure, I play it in my living room, too?but I bought this to gig with, pure and simple. No more pedals and processors to lug around.
As a performance machine it is everything I ever dreamed of wanting in a portable package. I love ALL the sounds I have created and I use them all. For surf music-clean with reverb-it is perfect. For bluesy rhythm and solo work with subtle, muted delays it smokes. For the BIG AMP (can you say Mr. Marshall?) sounds of the usual suspects?no problem. Whacko-Recto, dropped D or C or B(?) "wall-of-death-dry-tone" sounds?yep?rrr! Good enough renditions to do it all with conviction.
So what else is there? Can you do Jimi?s rotovibe stuff? yeah? it?s in there somewhere. Nobody will mistake you for JIMI (he?s dead, God rest his soul) but you?ll get the song across to the listeners. That's what you want to do if you're a guitar player in a band, folks.
Is it what you want when you go into the big rockstar studio to record for "XYZ records?" Nope. Get a lab coat or a boutique amp for that stuff. For a performance player?it rocks, big-time. Ten ring!!!

Peavey makes things that just never die. Their gear rarely breaks. I?m too old to gig w/o a backup (seen too many tragedies, broken gear-wise), but I trust this amp. So far so good. Never had a Peavey break on me but I did have to re-solder a BRAVO PC board, once upon a time. Pretty reliable stuff, overall

Customer support is excellent. You can go to different websites and download a PC editor stuff to store presets or download them from other sites. Peavey has a Forum and I think YAHOO has a users group. If you call these people, they?ll treat you as if you are family. Gotta go 10 here.

Okay?so that?s it for my (second review) humble impression the Transformer 112. I?d buy it again?no question. It has WAAAAY surpassed my expectations for this class of amp. I own a Peavey Revolution, too. The transformer is in the same class as the Revolution, which is to say that they are both excellent sounding, above-average-feature laden, "choice" amps in their classes, for performing guitarists. I have played a lot of modelers and I have to say that I made the right choice to buy this one. I know it sounds mean but I have to admit that I still get a chuckle out of watching the "NASA guys" lug all the huge MIDI-pedalboards and ten-ton, stereo modeling amps to shows. (Some of those $300 dollar "extra-cost" midi-pedals have larger stage footprints than the amps they "control"?Yikes!) Not for me. To add insult to injury?those high priced ($1300-$1800 with pedalboard) NASA jobs sell for 3-4 hundred on ebay nowadays. That?s a load of dough for that new-car-smell?know what I mean?
For the long-haul Peavey Transformer is the way to go. Small, lightweight and self contained (there?s even a Velcro tie-down for the PFC-4 controller in the bottom of the amp?s cabinet. Can you say, "thoughtful?") It?s a beautiful thing, sports fans. As a performance player?s tool, it is unbeatable for its price / features ratio.
Sincere apologies to you Johnson Millenium owners...say hello to your chiropractors for me! See you at the Kennedy Space Center. Aloha!

Versatility, decent tone, flexibility, adequate power. The guy who reviewed this amp before me said the Transformer got built on the back of the Transfex Pro. In a way it's true. I own a Transfex pro 2 X 12 amp. It IS unbelievable. In terms of its sophistication it blows away every amp I ever owned. But I still bought the Transformer to use for gigging because:
1.) It is very easy to carry (36 pounds?)
2.) It is very easy to set up (5 minutes.)
3.) It sounds great, with plenty of power.

"SOUNDS" is a very subjective category but I'll give it a whack!
I have experimented with the amp a lot. I have it set up to give me the sounds I use for a wide variety of different styles. It's very versatile for this. Somebody said it's more like a "SansAmp" than a true modeler. I think that's one of the best features, actually. I don't give a shit if it nails a 1964 Blackface Fender Twin with JBLs at Carnegie Hall (Fender chassis serial number OICU812. GIVE ME A F'KING BREAK!!!) All anybody cares about is if an amp can cop good tone or not. Perfectly modeling all the different amps is a load. Everyone is going to dial in the sounds they like, anyway. Why else would amp makers give you the option of tweaking presets? So just give me a lot of different choices and I'll set it up myself. That's what makes this amp easy to use. It's very easy to get a good sound (actually, LOTS of good sounds) from this amp. Brutal distortions? Hell yes...what modern, full-featured amp doesn't do that, these days? This is a little chunk of dynamite...it sounds great for everything without all the bullshit that comes with the high price tag.

No worries. Peavey is rugged.

Excellent.

Read on. The other reviews sum things up. I agree with mostly everything that has been said. It is a great buy compared with the other amps in this category. For one thing, the Transformer (and the mighty Transfex Pro) has an all analog preamp and poweramp. That alone is a good reason to choose it. It comes with a midi pedal and it's lightweight, too.
Gripes? The one thing I don't like is the lights on the control panel. I think they are embarassing on a dark stage. Makes me feel like I'm on the bridge of the f'king Enterprise...Beam my sorry ass up, Scotty!"
Overall, I'd choose it again...it rocks.

Sixteen user & 16 factory presets. Midi controller, made of steel. 12 amp models, lots of cabs to choose from (you can mix and match them too) and a master volume. Built in tuner. Nice features in a 40 pound package pushing a twelve-inch Blue Marvel speaker. Headphone is not stereo. Very flexible and a loud 50 watts. Transtube amp, which means it sounds kind of tubey, which it does.

I have a lot of different guitars. What I like most about this amp is that the character of all my guitars stays consistent, no matter what model that I'm using. This is the main reason that I bought this amp. Have you ever played through a Line 6 or a Johnson Millenium of the Fender modeling amps? Sure, they sound cool when you're at the store, changing presets and messing with them. I was impressed with all of these different amps until the same realization came through all of them...NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE PLAYING GUITAR-WISE-IT SOUNDS THE SAME. I started to hate that flat, lifeless digital tone. You can't EQ it away or shine it up with all the effects chains. There is no tone in these amps. You get the same flavor, no matter what you choose. It takes a while to figure out what's "not quite right" with the amp modelers, but I think I figured it out. They have no souls.
Enter the Peavey boys with this new idea (stolen from the unbelievable TRANSFEX PRO?) about shoehorning a nice digital control engine under the hood of a transtube (aka ANALOG) amp and tossing in some effects along with midi control. Dud it actually sounds like a REAL FUCKING AMP! A star is born. It isn't the holy grail of tone as some have mentioned...but it's pretty easy to dial up a whole shitload (16, as a matter of fact) of cool sounding amps, all in one box. The coolest part is that each of them behaves like a real amp, not some cheese factory fartbox digital shitbox like the also-rans. I've had this box in my house and on the road for a couple of years and I'm keeping it. To be fair ro the other guys out there...VOX makes a decent amp...but it tries to be a Peavey Transformer (same idea...analog amp w/digital controls) and it doesn't quite make it. Peavey rules the modelers, period.

10! reliable...unlike most of the others...
