Peavey Rage 258 Guitar Combo Amplifier

The Peavey Rage 258 Guitar Combo Amplifier is built around Peavey’s exclusive TransTube technology, which forms the foundation of its dynamic, tube-like tone. This design focuses on the interaction between the preamp and power amp sections to deliver a highly responsive playing experience.

The preamp is engineered to shape gain across a wide range of tones, from clean, transparent sounds to rich, saturated sustain with smooth breakup. The power amp is designed to react in a way that closely resembles a traditional tube circuit, introducing natural compression as volume increases. This interaction creates expressive dynamics and the familiar “grit” associated with tube-style amplification, without the need for valves.

Fitted with a robust 8-inch Blue Marvel speaker, the Rage 258 delivers focused, powerful sound in a compact format. It features two footswitchable channels—clean and lead—along with a 3-band EQ for flexible tone shaping. Additional controls include a modern/vintage voicing switch for tonal variation and a headphone output for silent practice. An auxiliary input allows players to jam along with external audio sources.

With 25 watts RMS of output, the Rage 258 Guitar Combo Amplifier i258 provides enough power for practice and small performance settings while remaining highly portable.
