Peavey has invested a lot of time into developing innovative technologies that accurately reproduce the sound of a tube amp. Considerations such as damping, speaker response, cabinet size, bracing, wood, and thickness have all been taken into account. The result is an incredibly versatile and well-rounded transtube amplifier that can adapt to any environment.
The Rage 258 is perfect for rehearsals, as it offers a range of controls that allow for additional sonic options to enhance your creativity. You can choose between vintage lead tones or a more modern stack sound. The amp also includes turning dials for pre-gain in the lead section, which can add extra noise when driven hard. The preamp section tailors the gain to meet the player’s needs, from crystal-clear to thick, smooth sustain. The power amp reacts similarly to a tube output section, providing natural compression that increases as the amp gets louder. It also features an AUX input/direct output for playing along with your favorite tunes and a headphone input for silent playing.
The Rage 258 maintains the classic Peavey styling, with signature picture frame edges that are reinforced for added protection. The amplifier has a silver/black woven mesh front and parallel silver panels, giving it an edgier look. The classic Peavey hieroglyphics and Transtube logo are prominently displayed on the amp.
