Robb Flynn

According to a Peavey article from April 2012 celebrating 20 years of the 6505 amp, Robb Flynn is a longtime user of it: "Machine Head’s Robb Flynn has used the amp since the recording sessions for his band’s debut, Burn My Eyes, in the early ‘90s. “We were trying to get a modern, heavy tone,” he said. “And when we came across [the 6505], it was crushing. It’s got a really incredible midrange growl that works so well.”"

"We're mainly running a Bogner Uberschall and a Peavey 6505+ simultaneously. The gain was coming from the 6505 and then we rolled back the gain on the Uberschall to give more of a crunch and tighten everything up. I use the 6505 live, for me they're the most consistent amps in the world – every single one of them sounds the same. They're brilliant made, whereas with a lot of other amps you have a good one or a bad one."

Ben and Cameron both from the band, say they use these amps because "they're the shit" and "they're not very good guitarists so that they can sound full and good. They're all the most "durable heads" for a touring bands.

A machine made to kill.

What can I say? When it comes to brutal metal guitar tone, Peavey 6506 is an absolute classic and class for itself. The amonunt of powerful, beefy tone it generates could feed Africa for, like, a decade.
