Re: Peavey Vs/&/Or Mesa Boogie?
I think all of those amps are decent, except the Peavey Ultra (Never played through one, so I can't comment on it). I have a series II Single Rectifier and I like it a lot for lead or rhythm. I also think the MKIV is an excellent amp, but Peavey makes a great amp for the price. I like the Triple X, the 5150II somewhat and the JSX a lot. For what it's worth, that's my opinion. I also sound like me, no matter what equipment I use and I always try to play before I buy. My advice would be the same as others gave you, play as many amps as you can and select the one that you like the best.
