Frequently Asked Questions - DELTA BLUES PEAVEY

How to connect an external speaker to the Delta Blues?
Use the rear EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACK. The total impedance of the combination (internal + external) must be at least 16 ohms.
Can I use a footswitch to change channels or disable the tremolo?
Yes, connect a remote footswitch to the REMOTE SWITCH JACK. Insert the plug fully (second click) for correct operation.
What type of tubes does this amplifier use?
The Delta Blues uses a tube preamp and a tube power amplifier. The exact tubes are not specified in the manual.
How to adjust the tremolo for a vintage effect?
Use the TREMOLO SPEED control for modulation speed and TREMOLO INTENSITY for depth. Turn clockwise to increase the effect.
What are the connections of the effects loop?
The effects loop consists of an EFFECTS SEND jack and an EFFECTS RETURN jack. Connect them to the input/output of your external effects processor.
Can I replace the speaker myself?
It is not recommended to open the unit. Have the speaker replaced by qualified personnel to avoid any risk of electric shock.
How to activate the boost?
Set the BOOST SWITCH to the 'In' position to increase the overall system gain.
What is the difference between the Normal channel and the Lead channel?
The Lead channel offers higher gain for saturated sounds, while the Normal channel stays cleaner. Use the channel selector or footswitch to switch.
How to clean the tweed of the cabinet?
Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemicals or water that could damage the covering. For stains, consult a professional.
Is the warranty international?
The warranty described in the manual is valid only in the United States and Canada. In other countries, the conditions are set by the national distributor.

PEAVEY DELTA BLUES - 1

Intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

PEAVEY DELTA BLUES - 2

Intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

CAUTION: Risk of electrical shock – DO NOT OPEN!

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

WARNING: To prevent electrical shock or fire hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Before using this appliance, read the operating guide for further warnings.

PEAVEY DELTA BLUES - 3

The 15" speaker, borrowed from its big brother, the 50-watt Blues Classic ^49 , is specially voiced for rich, full range tone. It has both more low end and more high end than the 12" speaker in the Classic@ 30. The extra high end also makes for an exceptional sounding acoustic guitar amp – with a bluesy edge.

An obvious choice for an external speaker would be the Classic ^® 115E which uses the same speaker in a larger cabinet. This combination creates a huge sound that is more than capable of keeping up with a rhythm section in a small club.

POWER SWITCH (1)

Switch to “on” position to activate.

PILOT LIGHT LED (2)

Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the unit.

TREMOLO SPEED (3)

The speed control determines the rate at which the signal is modulated. This control varies the speed of the Tremolo master oscillator and should provide any speed desired for modern music. Clockwise rotation of the speed control increases the speed of the modulation of the tremolo. The Tremolo feature is defeatable from a remote footswitch.

TREMOLO INTENSITY (4)

The intensity control is used to vary the amount of amplitude modulation of the clean signal. It can be adjusted from barely perceptible to dramatic modulation. Clockwise rotation of the intensity control increases the depth of the tremolo.

EFFECTS RETURN (5)

Input for returning signals from external effects or signal processing equipment.

EFFECTS SEND (6)

Output for supplying signal to external effects or signal processing equipment.

TREBLE, MIDDLE, AND BASS EQ (7)

Passive tone controls that regulate high, mid, and low frequencies, respectively.

BOOST SWITCH (8)

Boosts the overall system gain. Depress to the “in” position to activate.

REVERB (9)

Reverberation is an echo effect. Rotate clockwise to increase the effect.

POST GAIN (10)

Controls the overall volume level of the Lead channel. The final level adjustment should be made after the desired sound has been achieved.

PRE GAIN (11)

Controls the input volume level of the Lead channel.

CHANNEL SELECT SWITCH (12)

Allows selection of the Lead or Normal channel.

NOTE: Channel selection may also be achieved by the remote footswitch. If remote selection is desired, the channel switch must be in the “in” (Lead) position.

NORMAL GAIN (13)

Controls the volume level of the Normal channel.

INPUT (14)

The input jack will accept signals from all types of guitar pickups. Be sure to use a high-quality shielded cable to connect the guitar to the amplifier.

  3. Obey all cautions in the operating instructions and on the back of the unit.
  4. All operating instructions should be followed.
  5. This product should not be used near water, i.e., a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, wet basement, etc.
  6. This product should be located so that its position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. It should not be placed flat against a wall or placed in a built-in enclosure that will impede the flow of cooling air.
  7. This product should not be placed near a source of heat such as a stove, radiator, or another heat producing amplifier.
  8. Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
  9. Never break off the ground pin on the power supply cord. For more information on grounding, write for our free booklet “Shock Hazard and Grounding.”
  10. Power supply cords should always be handled carefully. Never walk or place equipment on power supply cords. Periodically check cords for cuts or signs of stress, especially at the plug and the point where the cord exits the unit.
  11. The power supply cord should be unplugged when the unit is to be unused for long periods of time.
  12. If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
  13. Metal parts can be cleaned with a damp rag. The viny1 covering used on some units can be cleaned with a damp rag or an ammonia-based household cleaner if necessary. Disconnect unit from power supply before cleaning.
  14. Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the unit through the ventilation holes or any other openings.

  15. This unit should be checked by a qualified service technician if:

a. The power supply cord or plug has been damaged.
b. Anything has fallen or been spilled into the unit.
c. The unit does not operate correctly.
d. The unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.

  1. The user should not attempt to service this equipment. All service work should be done by a qualified service technician.

  2. This product should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by Peavey Electronics.

  3. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S. Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise level exposures.

Duration Per Day In HoursSound Level dBA, Slow Response
890
692
495
397
2100
1 1/2102
1105
1/2110
1/4 or less115

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss.

Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation.
