The Backstage emulates the sound, high output, warmth and "push back" of tube amplifiers and includes features such as high and low EQ controls, a 6 inch heavy-duty speaker, switchable TransTube® overdrive, a tape/CD input for jamming along to your favorite songs and a headphone input for doing so quietly. Guitar Player reviewer Barry Cleveland raves about the tone and value of the Backstage in his March 2004 hands-on product review. "This is easily one of the best-sounding mini amps I've ever heard," he writes. "It delivers a great assortment of tube-like tones and offers excellent dynamic response, all in a pint-sized package and for a very modest price."The key is Peavey's exclusive TransTube technology, which emulates the sound of tube amplifiers without the hassle or cost of dealing with unpredictable tubes. The TransTube preamp tailors the gain level for any amount of drive, from clean to crunch to scream, using a patented approach to emulating 12AX7 tubes and their ability to create even, harmonic distortion. It also mimics the "push back" response of real tube circuitry, which is essential to emulating tube dynamics, distortion and chime.

The Classic® 30/112 has been redesigned with an all-new chassis design, but still features the distinctive sound and circuitry of the renowned Classic® Series amps.
Peavey's exclusive TransTube® technology truly creates the sound, warmth and "push back" of a tube amplifier through its patented solid-state design. The basic building blocks of the TransTube® sound are the exclusive designs of the preamp and power amp. The preamp section tailors gain to meet the need for any amount of drive, from crystal clear to thick, smooth sustain. The power amp reacts just like a tube output section by responding to the preamp with natural compression that increases as the amp gets louder. With TransTube®, you get a killer amp with widely ranging dynamics and natural "grit," just like a tube amp!
Get boutique quality at an unbelievable price! For starters you'll get an all neck-through-body design laminated from mahogany and maple with a rosewood fingerboard. This combination gives the Grind Bass 4 BXP NTB resonance and sustain you won't find on any other bass in this price range. Beautifully crafted.
The revamped TransTube-driven Bandit 112 has footswitchable clean and lead channels with a three band EQ on each, great sounding reverb with level control and a footswitchable effects loop. Other great features include the 3 position EQ/Gain voicing switch on each channel and footswitchable boost with level control. The amp puts out a powerful 80 watts at 8 ohms into the face melting Blue Marvel speaker and a cool 100 watts at 4 ohms, so using an extension speaker is no problem! TransTube technology does make a difference.
