A faithful NAM capture of the legendary Peavey 5150 — the iconic high-gain amp head co-designed with Eddie Van Halen that became a cornerstone of rock and metal guitar tone, renowned for its aggressive attack, thick saturation, and unmistakable high-gain character.
Paired with a Mesa Boogie 4x12" cabinet, this pack captures the complete amp + cab signal chain for powerful, ready-to-use tones straight into your DAW or rig.

🎶 INCLUDED TONES
This pack includes 2 captures, covering the raw 5150 high-gain sound and a tighter, boosted version for more aggressive rhythm work.
- RIG
The 5150 straight up — thick, saturated high gain with the amp's signature aggressive bite, powerful low-end, and cutting upper-mid character.
A raw, full-bodied tone built for heavy riffs, rhythm parts, and saturated leads.
- TS9 BOOST
The same 5150 + Mesa 4x12 rig pushed with an Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer in front.
The TS9 tightens the low-end, adds midrange focus, and pushes the front end harder for a more controlled and aggressive response — ideal for tight metal rhythm playing and riffs that need extra definition.
---
Both captures include the Peavey 5150 + Mesa Boogie 4x12 cabinet, giving you complete tones with the amp and cabinet baked into the capture.
From the raw, saturated 5150 sound to the tighter TS9-boosted version, this pack delivers the aggression, sustain, punch, and high-gain character that made the 5150 one of the defining amps of modern heavy guitar.
Trained using the standard NAM sweep signal for maximum accuracy.
ENJOY! 🎸
