Peavey Rage 158: 15 W RMS (into 4 ohms) solid-state guitar combo with Peavey TransTube circuitry, driving one internal 4-ohm speaker. Two channels, Clean and Lead, picked with a front-panel Channel Select switch (later version, per Peavey's 2012 manual: up = Clean, down = Lead; earlier version, per the 1995 TransTube Series manual: push switch, out = Clean, in = Lead). The Clean channel has only a Volume knob. The Lead channel runs through a high-gain preamp with Pre Gain (sets the amount of distortion) and Post Gain (Lead channel level). Both channels share a passive Low, Mid and High EQ. The
