Thoughts on Peavey[edit]

(Just to get a discussion page started)

Peavey has (or at least has had) a reputation for making very solidly built equipment that sounds... just OK. Hence, the occasionally-heard aphorism, "Don't buy a Peavey, the damned thing will last forever." Like most generalizations, this one's a bit unfair. I can personally attest that they have made some very good-sounding bass cabinets, and they certainly deliver a lot of "bang-for-the-buck". And you've got to love a company that was founded by someone who made his own first electric guitar and first amp as a kid when his dad wouldn't pony up for them.

Good anecdotes. Of course, if they made lousy equipment (and I'm not saying they do!), there should still be a Wiki article about them.

It appears that a good portion of the article material comes from Peavey's PR department. At the moment, the only sources are Peavey's own Web site. The current article reads a like an advertisement, with uncited phrases such as "grown massively", "humble beginnings". The article on Peavey himself could use more material, too. This might be a good source: http://www.peavey.com/corp/history/index.cfm 67.180.48.127 (talk) 01:42, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article lacks sources and is pure marketing. This is not in the spirit of Wiki. Someone should edit the article and moderate it.

Fair use rationale for Image:Peaveylogo.png[edit]

Image:Peaveylogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Joe Talica - (Dr Bin Laden)[edit]

I don't think this is a real player or band. Confirm? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.171.192.130 (talk) 15:45, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What! No mention of Peavey keyboards or synths? Ggggrrrrgh.[edit]

What! No mention of Peavey keyboards or synths, e.g. the Peavey DPM line of synths, including those that were designed, engineered, marketed, and sold as "end of obsolescence" software upgradeable? Someone should definitely dig up that branch of company's instrument history from some of the better known keyboards/synth sites, and add a section to round this article out (if I don't get a chance to do that first).

Pedal Steel Amps?[edit]

Thought I would put out their that Peavey has always been one of the most widely used pedal steel amps so if someone is going to edit the page someday maybe they could include that too. --Brian Earl Haines (talk) 20:34, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
