Would you rather Peavey Mark IV or Micro Terror?

[rsfc]

So I’m looking For a fun, cheap second amp head. I was thinking about picking up a micro terror or even saving up for a mini dark terror. However, an old Peavey Mark IV popped up locally and it looks like a bit of fun (I’d be using it for guitar thoug). I realize it’s apples and oranges but which would you do and why?

I would mostly be using either for doom/stoner/drone stuff

I have an old Mark IV head, it can be a joy to use in doom/stoner/drone stuff. Not the bee's knees on the tonal front, but it's easy enough to carve in power points with the EQ.

I'd say Micro Terror if you're in a recording space (no experience with that amp, it's just my philosophy with smaller amps in general) and Mark IV if you need backline reinforcement.

So, both, obviously.

I'd go with the KVLT all day long

odontophobia, spacelordmother, and invisibleman all agree

if you want a decent amount a versatility the Mark IV is probably the way to go

micro terror sounds awesome and if you are looking for tiny and portable it's a beast but I have owned and flipped 3-4 of them so far because at some point it just feels super limited

I play in a doom band and sometimes use my micro terror at band practice when I don't feel like lugging my heavier stuff around. It can hang but just barely. There is no clean headroom at all in a loud band situation so forget about using delays or reverbs unless you don't care about actually hearing the notes you are playing. I do like how it sounds when I play at lower volumes but I am looking to replace it eventually.

micro terror = shit.

the peavey is built like a brick shithouse.

peavey kvlt all the way

If you're getting something just to have fun and try something different, get the Peavey.

[hbombgraphics]

one more vote for the peavey although I already voted, you will pretty much always be able to purchase a micro terror, the peavey's won't be around forever

You don't speak for me.

But I agree.

[voerking]

[Invisible Man]

Just remembered I had a Micro Terror. Too busy shitposting.

Yeah, it wasn't very good. Peavey, please.

At first I thought you were naming bands.
