And Eddie’s amp model, the Peavey 5150. It’s become the de-facto standard for the more extreme metal bands.

When Eddie took the rights with him to Fender and they made the EVH 5150 (another fantastic amp), Peavey renamed this line to the 6505 series, so there you have another four-digit code to use.

Well the 5150 was Eddie’s Studio Postal Code, but if we are going down this road :-) I would like to point out at some point in time they run out of Sylvania 6L6 Power Tubes... then Peavey started with Chinese Ruby 6L6 Power Tubes for the EVH5150 and they dont sound the same...
