Guest cruster Posted April 28, 2005 Posted April 28, 2005 Where can one find out more about the Peters Wolverine? A google search yielded very little useful information.
DEMENTED Posted April 28, 2005 Author Posted April 28, 2005 Where can one find out more about the Peters Wolverine? A google search yielded very little useful information. www.petersamps.com(403) 220-9345It's a very aggressive high-gain amp, similar in a general sense toamps like the 5150, Dual Rectifier, and Uberschall (although with its owntone, of course).The tone is a bit more like a very aggressive Marshall, sort of "if Marshallmade a modern high gain amp", I guess. That's to say it's a bit warmer, hasa bit smoother of a tone, and doesn't suffer from the "cold" aspect of someother high gain amps. It also never gets saturated to the point of beingmuddy. It's tight and chunky with lots of gain, and has lots of snarl andgrowl. Turning down the gain control gets a pretty good classic rock tonesimilar to a 20W Marshall (the PA amp commonly used nowadays as a guitaramp, since it sounds really tight and chunky for an early Marshall).The EQ is simple but very functional. Scooped "death metal" tones are easyto get by classic treatment of the EQ (turn the mids down, lows and highsup), fat lead sounds are on tap (turn the highs down and mids up), and forthe more "classic rock" tones with lower gain, it can have enough shimmerand plexi-esque mids by keeping the highs on 7 and the mids on 4.It takes three 12AX7 tubes (using 5 preamp stages), and one power tube. Thepower tube can be an EL34, 6L6, KT66, or variants of those tubes (5881,6CA7, etc.) It's self biasing so you don't need to bias the amp for any ofthose tubes. Just turn the amp off, wait for the tube to cool, yank out thetube, put a different one in, and turn it back on.The lower volume tones are what the amp is primarily designed for, but italso fares well at somewhat higher volumes too. The oversized outputtransformer (larger than a lot of amps' 50W push-pull trannies) keeps thesound smooth and full without saturating at higher volumes. You will getpower tube distortion, but you won't get saturation in the outputtransformer (which can make an amp sound like it's "struggling", especiallywith lots of bass).It's 13.5" wide, 9" tall, and 9" deep, and weighs 25 lbs.

I loved the Peters Wolverinr but I have to sell some stuff off to buy more, so whatever went, went!I am surprised it took so long too. these are rare and killer little amps.
