Description

Peavey 5150 (1990 Block Letter) – GREEN AND RED Channel Preamp Capture Epochs: 1000 | Reamp Box: Countryman 85 ⚠️Disclaimer: The online preview player does not accurately represent these captures. For the best tone and true-to-source results, please download the files and use them within the NAM plugin alongside a high-quality impulse response. Step back into the era that defined modern high-gain with the original 1990 Peavey 5150 Block Letter — captured on the Lead channel to deliver the raw, iconic tone that launched countless metal and hard rock records. This profile brings the unmistakable Block Letter character: thick, aggressive saturation, tight low end, and that gritty, biting upper midrange that cuts through any mix with ease. From tight palm-mutes to screaming leads, this capture delivers the classic EVH-driven voicing that made the 5150 a legend. Please Note: This is a preamp-only capture — no cabinet IR is included, giving you full freedom to match with your preferred IRs, cabs, or power amp sims.
