Peavey TNT 115S

Bought mine back in 2002 and started using in gigs right away. Power was never an issue in any of the gigs I did with it. I never used the effect loop.
The only thing that might have been nicer than the "Chorus" effect would have been a Compression effect.

I only used this amp with a Hofner and a Rickenbacker bass, both feature passive pickups. I only played Beatles tunes, so I EQ'd it to reduce the bottom end (which have nothing to do with the 60's sound). I also used EQ to remove a bit of the high end, as I was playing with a pick, but didn't want the picking sound to be amplified.

Never heard any noise from it, nor distortion as I only used the pre-amp and master volumes at around 5.

This is the most reliable bass amp I've ever seen. I have friends with their own amps and they always had some kind of trouble with theirs.

Mine was transported through very harsh streets (I'm in Sao Paulo, Brasil) in old, beat up cars. I has been shaken, droped (from low heights, but still), especially since this amp is SO heavy, it's very hard to move it (like from the car to the stage etc) with too much care.

Still, it never let me down.

Thankfully, I've no idea about customer support because I never used it.

I'm no longer in a band these days, but I stil play it from time to time. It still works.

The only thing I hate about the amp is its weight. I can only move it a few meters by myself. For more than that I certainly need help. And they put a ridiculous handle on the top. They should have put some heavy duty handles on the sides, and wheels (though I could install those myself).

So basically this is a very powerful, very reliable amp. If you're playing gigs and have someone to help you move/transport it, it's excellent.

this is a 2002 TNT 115S model

it has a 7 band EQ, bright and punch controls, plus low, mid, and high controls, making it possible to aquire a completely custom tone.
it does not have a headphone jack, (or i havent found one yet), power amp inputs, two instrument inputs, a low gain and high gain, effects send and effects return.
i wish it had a bass overdrive control, but most bass amps dont anyway, and i never use the chorus, but thats just me because i like pure, unchopped tone. also, its quite heavy, so i wish they had put two side handles on instead of the one on top.

i am using passive P/J pickups, a bass MONSTER cable (i HIGHLY recommend getting one), and Ibanez soundgear. this amp has great low end with very minimal distortion, if any, even when cranked up, and cutting highs. i play in a death metal band (www.myspace.com/aslongaspeopledie) and its loud enough to hear over two guitarists, one with a peavey something with 2x12 speakers, one with a crate 2x12, a vocalist using a fender rumble 100, and a drummer with a LOUD(er than most) double bass drumset.

this amp has been to many MANY MANY MANY gigs and it just started to wear down (after almost 4 years). but, when i took it to the shop to see what was wrong, they told me the only problem was that the speaker blew, so i still say this amp is very sturdy. i take it in the back of a truck to practices where it topples around a little bit, and it still works like its new.

the only company ive dealt with this amp with has been Holzes Music Co., so i cant really say anything about the Peavey customer service. I havent gotten it repaired under warranty (because it hasnt needed any repairs for a while), the blown speaker is the only thing ive needed it repaired for and the warranty has already expired.

I have been playing for 3 years, like i stated earlier in a death metal band (www.myspace.com/aslongaspeopledie). i also own a Peavey 112 200 transformer combo, a 50 watt stone bass combo, a studio pro "400 watt" amp (with an 8" speaker, haha 400 watts), an Ibanez GRS-200 with soundgear, and a BC Rich Platinum Warlock 5. If my TNT 115S were lost or stolen i would deffinitely buy this again (unless i somehow collected enpugh money to buy a good Gallien-Krueger half stack). I love this amps sound quality and volume capability (with no distortion) and theres nothing i hate about it. i deffinitely reccomend it over anything BUT a Gallien-Krueger.

I've had the TKo 115s for a a while and had no real problems with it. The only thing that I really hate si the fact that you can't turn the thing up to above 7 or 8 without getting a drastic distortion on some levels of the note. Sems to be more in the mid-range, other than that , it is a very reliable amp. Of course the thing is heavy but so is a tank; Ithaink is will stay in the mix without going down. I also have TNT 100 that I have had for 27 years, bought it new in 1975, it needs a little work lile a couple of control pots but other than that it still can kik but. I play a lot of really contemporary gospel and country music with Fender American Jazz Bass one five string string Pro-Custom and a an American Jazz 4 string which I bought the same day as the TNT. Thais has been a good combo since 1975. The Peavey has never let me down, I do wish the cabinet weight was less and that all these very heavy units had side handles and caster standard instead of having to add them as I did.

a 2001 model with the "Blue Marvel" speaker & horn loaded tweeter.

Sounds good for a mid-priced solid state bass combo amp. I play rock, so it sounds good for that.

One channel. It does have a headphone jack & fx loop, though I never use them.

Whatever genius at Peavey r&d that though you could market this beast without casters or at least side handles is a fool. It weighs in at almost 100 lbs & it only has a top strap handle. Make sure you have friends that will help you lug this monster around.

I use this amp for practice & gigs. Mostly just for practice now because it's just too heavy to move around.

Plenty o' power. I swore off Peavey years ago because I had a TKO 65 combo that was ABSOLUTE GARBAGE.
I bought two combos & returned them before I eventually settled on this new Peavey. My friend at the music store said that Peavey was making a great effort to improve their reputation. If this amp is any indication, they've done well.

I play a Rickenbacker 4003 & 3001, a Gibson T-bird, & a Fender jazz bass through this amp. All with a pick with various effects.

Nice bright & contour switches. The EQ is adequate as well. No one will ever mistake this amp for a 70s SVT, but it's just fine for those of us in the real world.

As stated before - a good solid state bass amp.

Seems solid. Way better than my old Peavey in terms of reliability.

Has been banged around while loading/unloading at gigs...one tough little monkey.

No reason to as of yet....

I've been playing for about 19 years now. I also have a 70s Stage 20w practice amp & a Fender BXR 400 head with a Fender 4x10 cab & a Eminence 1x15 cab.

If it were stolen I may get another one. In that price range for combos only Yorkvilles are comparable.

I initially bought a Fender Bassman 100. What a joke that was. Fender has apparently farmed their amp labor to Mexico now. It sounded like a cardboard fart & couldn't keep up with the most delicate of drummers. Thanks to Ken Stanton Music for allowing me to return it in favor of the Peavey.

I hate the usless handle on the top of the amp. That is an instant hernia kit. Also the logos are UGLY. That coupled with my past experience with Peavey were reason enough to remove them & cover the logo on the face plate with a NHL sticker. (Go Maple Leafs!)

I wish it had it's own roadie....or at least casters.

I use this amp as a keyboard amp. I don't use the bright or punch switch's. I do use the 7 band eq and I send the low range output to a monitor.

The sould that I get out of this amp is awesome. Much better than the Peavey KB/A300. I tweaked the eq for the organ/synth/piano sounds and was able to get great tone. I don't find it noisy and this amp is capable of club level volumes.

Built like a tank...........no problems.

Don't know, have never had a need to contact Peavey for support.

As a keyboard amp I have to give it a ten. It does not have a horn in it but that does not seem to make a difference. The big thing I noticed is the sound is rich and full, like a wall of speakers in your face. I play in a band with 2 guitar players and I can tell you this amp cuts thru cleanly. If your a keyboard player looking for an amp, try this one, you will be supprised. I don't think Peavy makes it anymore so you could probably pick it up cheap on ebay. It is heavy but if you mount casters on it, moving it will be a non issue.

I think this is the amp I have; who knows. Its the new style with the red trim stuff. All it says is TNT115 on the front, and a feature I haven't seen on a Peavey is that the power switch is in the back. 85 watts, contour switch, 9 band eq (I think; either 9 or 10, I'm too lazy to go look), its own bass and high adjustments, gain, main volume, BBT speaker protection (crap), bright switch, eq on/off, head phone out, active/passive input switch, line out, effects loop, external speaker jack; I think thats it. Just go to Peavey.com and look at the TNT115, and thats mine. I give it an 8 because I'm spoiled on my last amps limiter and compressor.

I play an Ibanez EDB690 which is basically the EDB600 with a curly wood paint job and a 5 piece maple and wenge neck. First off, is the speaker. I have to run another cabinet along with this speaker so it won't rattle out. And the BBT protection thing works good, but I'd rather just blow the speaker for an excuse to buy a new one. I do run a lot of bass through this amp though, just to keep up with the mid-range punch of my bass. Very distinct highs, but you can't run too much mid with this amp either or it will just sound bad. I play a lot of slap bass, and the highs of this amp are suited well for that. Just get a JBL or something to put in there.

This amp is very dependable, as well as all of the newer model Peaveys. I also own a Peavey 5150 combo (Signature). I have owned many other Peavey amps in the past, and they are well made, quality amps. I've gigged without a backup, but with a 410 cab...

Peavey has always helped me out, as well as the Peavey dealer that I purchased from.

The only weak point of this amp is the speaker and in my opinion, it could use a limiter and/or compressor, but thats just me. It is a beast though, even though mine has casters installed. I think Peavey.com said it weighed 94 or something. I beleive it too, its a hoss. It could also use an ohm selector so maybe I could play a little louder without the speaker farting. Burping, whatever you call it. If you come across a good deal with this amp, get it, and spend about $50 on a new speaker. Like I need to do...

this is a 2000 i believe, only one channel, chorus effect which i never use but i admit is a cool effect, not for my style though. Has a 7 band equalizer i believe, but no matter how much you play with it does not seem to make adifference. Has a punch switch which actually seems like it takes out hte punch when you turn it on, brightness switch, etc. its got 1 15" speaker. SOunds like a good amount of features but really not.

Sucks! Sometimes it will sound pretty good actually I admit, but for some reason it will sound different the next time i play and different the next time. I dont understand it. The tone is tought to get right. Does sound good when you do get it right, but usually you get way too much bottom end and nothing else, or way to many highs and nothing but that and string rattling. Rattles at high volumes, not as loud as it should be.

big amp, but seems to be cracking on side as well as something rattling inside liek crazy adn ive taken very good care of it.

i belive the warranty is 2 years. Never actually dealt with them. Asked about the rattling and they offered to fix it for free but only if i drove it to a shop an hour and a half away and left it there for an unkonw period of time. I guess thats pretty normal, but it sucks.

Not a bad amp for maybe 300 bucks.500 i think is pushing it. If you get a good used deal, buy it its loud but im not surre the 500 was worth it.

This is a 2002 Peavey TNT 115S. I bought this thing because all my other amp's were shot because of the Active Electronics on my 1998 Fender Precision Bass LYTE artist model. This amp has a lot of power and versatility and straight up rock's my world. I play in an emo-punk band and this baby keeps up on the 3rd volume level with both of the guitarists and drummer. It has 2 channels, one with low and high knobs and one with a 7 band eq. It has an effects loop, headphone jack, external speaker jack, and an xlr input.

I use a fender p-bass LYTE artist with active electronics and this amp picks up EVERYTHING. I play ska, emo, speed punk, etc. using this amp, it works for everything I can throw at it. I have one complaint about this amp's sound... some of the higher notes tend to be harder to hear (high on the d string and anywhere on the g string). But other than that, it kicks complete ass. I havnt really turned the volume up past like 6 or so because i have no need to... volume 4 is loud enough for shows. The amp has no distortion at all.

This thing ways 85 friggen pounds. It is built like a tank. No need for a back up, it will never break down.

Never had to deal with Peavey yet, and dont plan on it. I believe it has a 1 or 2 year limited warranty.

I've been playing for almost 2 years now. I have owned a bunch of small practice amp's and a Johnson 65 watt, all of which i have blown the speakers in. If it were stolen i'd be really pissed off, i'd most likely buy it again, or i would buy a Gallien-Krueger half stack. I love everything about it, it would be cooler if it were a 2 by 12 instead of a 1 by 15 but it still kicks ass. I compared it to a crate bx amp and i chose this one because it was louder and more versatile.

I am not sure when this amp was made, probably mid to late 90's. Has plenty of tone shaping capabilities with the seven band eq but lacks a few common features that would really make this a nice amp. Those features are: a high frequency horn/tweeter, an external speaker jack and side handles (amp is extrememly heavey!) IT does have a Hi/Lo crossover out and pre amp out so you can run a line to a separate power amp and cab(s). Amp has good enough power/sound for me since I go direct to the house and only use it for stage volume.

To me the sound of the amp is a little dull. It has plenty of bottom but just doesn't seem to have any character in the mids. Also doesn't have much hi frequencies due to lack of horn/tweeter. You can tweak the sound a good bit with the eq, with a bit of work you can get a decent rock/blues tone out of it, or even a good retro slap funk. Definitely no modern tones here! As far as the built in chorus effect is concerned... don't even bother touching it!! It is horrible and very electronic sounding! The chorus in my Zoom 506II pedal even sounds way better than this. Also the amp makes an annoying mechanical buzzing/vibrating sound on certain lower notes when played loud.

My main bass is an ESP 5 string bass with EMG pick ups and electronics. This combo seems to take away most of the growl and brightness of my bass. My bass sounds fantastic in the studio and through every rig I play it through except the TNT 115S.

I don't want to totally trash the sound of this amp, some people like the sound of a single driver with no horn. And if your playing blues or rock you may actually like this amp.

This is where Peavey really shines. Their stuff is built like a tank! I own a couple other Peavey amps and have never had a problem. I still own a '79 TKO 80 that has been seriously abused but still works perfectly.

I have emailed them several times with questions and they have always responded quickly (many times within the same day) with the exact information I was looking for.

I've been playing bass for 8-9 years. In addition to the TNT I also own an old TKO 80 and a Microbass. I have three basses, an active 5 string, a passive 4 string fretless and an old modified Gibson EB-0. I own a SansAmp Bass Driver DI and a Digitech BP200, both I use for amp modeling and effects which I run direct to the house. The TNT amp is only used for stage volume. If it were lost or stolen I would probably buy something else since there are a few other inexpensive combos on the market now with more desirable features and weight. I love the fact that this combo is reliable and durable. The crossover is a big help for bigger gigs. The weight is a bit of a problem, especially since it only has a single, narrow strap on top. What engineer at Peavey thought to make a big 85lb amp with out side handles?! Over all this is a good amp for the money. Especially when you look at a $ to power ratio. For relatively little money you get a pretty big sounding combo with plenty of low end and volume to fill a small club. But you'll probably want to invest a few $$ in a hand cart if you want to haul it around.

2001 with a Black Widow speaker
This amp is an amp that was built with one style in mind... rock. However, you can play other styles with it, but it was meant for rock and roll. It has one channel, effects loop, headphone jack, preamp gain, master level, extension cab output, 7 band graphic EQ with bass and treble EQ, Contour switch, active/passive switch, tweeter, bright/normal switch, and eq on/off switch. I use this amp mostly in my home studio/jam room. It is 150 watts solid state, but I don't feel the volume it produces is sufficent for medium to large gigs, but works great for small gigs. Wish this bloody thing had side handles and casters!

Right now I am using a Mexican made Fender Jazz Bass V. This amp is alright for my music style, but I do not like the sound when the amp is turned up loud. It seems to distort past my likings, but the distortion is not that bad. I play mostly rock and blues, and it sounds good for those styles. The amp tends to be a little noisy with the highs boosted in the EQ, but that is expected since it has a tweeter.

This thing is built like a beast. However, it does weigh close to 90 pounds, and is hard to move with just one top handle. Has never broken down. I'd gig without a backup.

Never dealt with them.

I have been playing four years... I think. I own fender guitars, basses, and amps, peavey amps, hartke amps, and digitech effects. If it were stolen I would probably but a different amp... something with tubes and a lot more wattage. If you plan on moving this amp frequently, buy casters and side handles.

I purchased the Peavey TNT 160 Scorpion new in 1990. I hope I am using the correct review. It is a 1x15 160w (solid state of course) combo that proudly displays "Scorpion Equipped". Has low and high gain inputs, Gain has two push buttons: Bright and Punch. I suppose they could be useful for a sudden burst of uncontrolled volume. (ya cant control how mush punch or Bright) There's a crossover section for biamping ( I tried this only once). The chorus that I have never used when playing with other musicians....hmmmm...Anyhow, There's a Pre Amp out and a Power Amp in. I have bypassed the pre amp and have gotten better tone. The back has a ground +- switch. I used this amp for rehearsal and several party gigs only. It has a hard time projecting enough punch competing against two powerpop guitars. I?m considering selling it or modifying it because it has no speaker in jack. A headphone out would be nice. But most of all it needs two side handles. It must be pushing 75lbs. The day I bought it I built a cart to set it on.

I'm no longer using it, but I was using a Rickenbacker and before that, an Ibanez Pstyle. I eventually started upgrading and bypassed the pre with a SWR Grand Prix. I have trouble getting a warm sound out of it. (I know...go tubes) It handled my style fine. I play Post punk, power pop, Emo...Frank Black,Possies,Weezer, etc. This amp is pretty versatile at mid volumes. At low volumes the noise will drive you crazy....It hums loudly with nothing plugged in. At loud volumes the big 15" speaker starts to get flabby and you start to hear solid state distortion....not pleasant noise. This amp would need some help competing with two guitars in anything bigger than a large living room, or garage.(if you play Rock)

Never had a problem. I would use it without a cab backup, but I would bring an extra pre or DI like the Tech21 Sansamp BassDriver.

I never had to call support

I have been playing for 15 years. I now have a SWR Grand Prix preamp, QSC PLX1602 powering an Eden 210XLT...much more expensive and better sounding. I would not replace the Peavey with this old model. For big sound without the back ache go with a modular rig, not a combo.

Don' know when it was made. I bought it in 1999 from a pawn shop so its prob 1997-1998. It's the black with silver trim model (as opposed to the black/green early 90's, or black/red 2001 and later)
Extremely versitile as bass amps go. It has shelving compression, 7 band eq, bright, punch, and contour switches, master volume, chorus. The only thing that I wish it had is a speaker out jack. WTF??? It's a sealed cab with no speaker out so I would have to mangle it to put one in it. Oh, it also has an effects loop and a built in crossover to bi-amp with.
I currently use it at home. It's so freakin' heavy you would definitely want to add wheels if you gig with it.
I'll give it an 8 in this cat because the speaker out is a big issue.

I bought it originally to play bass with, but my bass sits in the closet and I focus now on my guitar playing. Thing is, this sounds so much better than my guitar amps that it has become my primary rig for that! I own several tube amps including Music Man, Peavey classic, and Fender Hot rod deville and silver face deluxe. For most playing styles this thing blows them all away. Unfortunately there is no reverb so I have to use either my zoom unit or Digitech valve fx preamp for that effect, but the built in chorus works just as well for guitar as it does for bass. It sounds outstanding on bass, being able to go from a dull foggy vintage bass sound to a tight slappy funk to a chorus'ed Les Claypool with a few button tweaks.

This is where it falls short. I have no knowledge of how it was treated before I purchased it, but it has a problem. Every time I move it from room to room, the power will not come on afterwards. I give it a solid kick in the side, and the power then comes on and it works until I move it the next time. This would be a serious problem if I were to need it for a gig...It's probably just a loose wire though. One of these days I will take it apart to find out.

Don't know about support. I bought it in a pawn shop, so I doubt they would be too willing to fix it :)

I've been playing either bass or guitar for about ten years now. If it were ever stolen, I would probably replace it, depending on how easy it would be to find one of these used. Peavey product prices are set by the individual stores, so they are usually ridiculous. I try to only buy used peavey products. I think this one runs about $600 new...

I bought this as my first real gigging bass amp. The amp has a lot of features which I don't understand e.g. why have a shelving control and a 'bright' button and a graphic equaliser - there is too much crap on it to decide. No headphone socket is stupid. I get the sound I want, but it took a while. One big handle on the top is useless - I had to get side handles fitted myself - one person will hurt themselves trying to carry it with it's handle. Never used the in built chorus effects, surely something like a tuner would be of more use.

I use a Rickenbacker & a Fender P bass through this amp. It does produce a powerful punch or 'bang for bucks' as they say. I find it noisy at low practice volumes. I mainly play pop/rock & heavy rock which it is ideal for, in pub/club environments. I DI into a larger PA so volume is not an issue - but you could not play a large venue without some help.

It has broken down twice - the speaker blew during gigs - which is stupid as I never play above 5/6 on the volume pot & the gain is always on 5/6 also. I was not happy. I always gig without a backup - we have a big PA I can DI into if necessary. Does anyone actually take spare bass combos to gigs? Surely moving stonehenge would be easier.

After the speaker blew second time I demanded a replacement - it was less than 6 months old & I was angry as hell. I sent them a strongly worded letter outlining all the issues I had - they did respond quickly & sent me the new amp within seven days and a decent set of handles for the sides. When I bought it there was loads of bull about the'peavey users group' which seems to be non existent - I have never had any literature off them ever, which is a shame as I thought Peavey would be keen to keep users up to date with new products, especially if they want to sell any.

I've been playing for a while, but this was my first 'brand new' amp - if it were lost or stolen, I'd invest much more & get something louder, and preferably lighter. It needs wheels, handles, a headphone socket and a decent manual or less buttons for the sake of it - things like effects loops and crossover need explaining to be of any use. It is a good first amp, and if I had bought it second hand, I would be happy (as long as the speaker didn't blow). I own some Peavey Eurosys speakers (for the PA) which are outstanding and have never been any problem.

Well, I'd say this thing is a nicely packed bass amp! It's got high and low gain inputs, high and low EG selving, "bright" (treble boost) and "punch" (mid range boost) knobs. It's got a 7 band EG which I love, an effects loop (wtf, I never use that, but, whatever, maybe someone else will have a use for it), and it has a lil chorus thingy. Oh yeah, and it has 150watts, which I think is gonna be enough for whatever I feel like doing. 1x15 speaker, so um, yeah.

ya know, I've heard some bad stuff bout this thing, but I personally think it's a pretty awsome combo amp. I know, the chorus prolly isnt some billion-kazillion dollar vintage crap thingy, but ya know, it's a damn chorus, it does what I want it to do. The 7 bands of EQ gives some real nice versatility. If ya dont like it, then just stay calm and TWEAK THE LIL SLIDERS!!! It's all it takes.

Umm... yeah, I could depend on it. I never really broke or anything..................... that good enough?

Um........ yeah...nice....

I know, people cry and people moan about WHATEVER that this amp doesnt have as oppossed to Ampeg stuff or whatever. BOTTOM LINE- I LIKE IT, AND I HAVE NO INTENTION OF BUYING A NEW AMP ANY TIME SOON.

"..and if it comes out bad, these people are just gonna hafta wait"(Kurt Cobain)

I bought this amp used, but think it is an early 90's amp because of the set up. (NO limiter - LED) This amp has two inputs for high and low gain, a knob for gain and a knob for master volume. A shelving system of two switches one for added punch (low end) and bright (high end). The one I own has a seven band equalizer and a switch to control it on or off (graphics) and another switch labled "contour" which I have never notice any difference when on or off. There is also a cross over channel and a built in chours effect. Plus a line out jack and a pre-amp jack. Over all the features of this amp are versatile, even though I never use the contour and or the chours effect. I use this as my giging amp, it is plenty LOUD, 150-watts. When I turn the gain and volume to 6-7 it starts to get to the ear bleeding ground shakin' level. I have played this amp in small bars to outdoor gigs, everytime you'll hear to BASS.

I use this amp mostly with my Washburn Bantum playing styles from punk slap pop to folk rocky IM stuff. I find the shelving to be very useful for the combinations of my styles. I can quickly change from a deep and low fat round sound (ie IM'ing) having the punch in and low on 6-7, bright out and high on zero (keeping the EQ in a V with the dip closer to the high end and more peak for the lower end). Turn around push in the bright turn down the low a bit and crank to high to 7 and I'm ready to get the funk out. I don't use any effects and prefer the clean tones of the bass and this amp is able to do just that. There is full tone even when playing on lower volume and no noticable noise when cranked to the ear bleeding levels.

What really surprised me about this amp was when I first plug my Dean acc/elec guitar into this puppy. The range of this amp is broad and can be tweeked to many differnt sounds; with a simple design. It is after all a bass/keyboard amp, hence the built in chours effect.

I've had this amp for over a year and a half and have never seen a problem with it. Backup? Never heard of such a thing. But to note, a fellow musician had the same amp and the speaker went on him, that was replace by finding a reasonable priced cab, and cutting off the head of the Peavey. His amp still ticks though now as a partial stack rather then a combo.

Only dealt with their website to get a manual, which was downloaded and printed, only costed the price of paper and ink. No snail mail or middle man involved. The manual didn't give me ANY useful information on the "contour" button, which is why I wanted to see it. Overall the manual isn't very informitive if you're familar with musical electronics. "Turn this up get more of it" type stuff, well DUH.

I have been play bass now for six years and guitar for longer then that. I think it might be rather hard to lose this thing it's 2x2x1 feet in volume and wieghs 90 pounds, kinda hard to miss. But if it was stolen or something I would concider buying another one, and hex the thief that fork lifted it away. It's a combo amp so it is on the massive side, 90 lb., so I just wished that Peavey had put side handles in the cab instead of just one top handle, like they do on their non-combo cabs. One person can break their back twice if they move this sucker to far, two people or a hand truck is the way to transport this thing.

this is a solid state peavey 7band equalizer low high... four buttons for to enhance punch, bright, contour and button to turn the equalizer on and off. two inputs for high and low gain there isnt that much of a difference one is a little louder has pregain master it also comes equipped with a built in cho.rus which im not a big fan of using. one thing that drives me crazy about this amp is that i doesnt have is a speaker out for an extention cabinet ahhhhh!
also if you dont have an active bass the 150watts this thing puts out isnt enough

this amp is a bit noisey... all the time you konw the sound that crackly eeerrrrrr i play a lot of different styles this just doesnt cover them very well. i can get about one sound i like then ill go tweak the bass or something and ill loose the other sound. i cant get a good balance out of this thing. i also cant get nice tone it just sorta sounds weak it has quite amazing bass im sure the neighbors can hear it three houses down. sometimes i cant get the sounds i like mostly dead ones one thing i dont understand is that when you take out the punch selector switch it gives more bass

what can i say i roll it up the stairs to get it back in my room because its so heavey and ive had no problems yet

never dealed with peavey

if it were stolen ide rejoice besides the fact that it was a waste of 500 dollar amp that i only paid 380 for mabey ill sell it for 400 ...
i wish it had a different preamp and a better range of sound damnit!
oh well on thing that was sort of weird was that my grill kept falling off seeing as how it was held on buy little tiny velcro squares its a very very average amp could be a good way to rip someone off. peavey you should have taken a bit more time on this one instead of just spitting it out.
oh yaeh did i mention that it weighs about 100 pounds and it only has one top handle two side flip outs would have helped

this is the 1998 model. and i like it alot. It is a solid state 150w 15" speaker beast. it only has one channel to which the inbuilt chorus can be added as well as having effects loops and power amp inputs. As well as this it has punch, bright, a 7 band graphic eq with an on/off switch as well as being able to defeat the amps default contour. It also has shelving options and pre gain with 2 inputs, both high and low.

It sounds great with my bass, a split coil 4 string. I hav etried it with different basses and different musical styles and it has enough control to be able to adjust it to your needs and get a superb sound. And it barely distrots at high volumes, i love it

This amp is the most reliable i have ever had, i would definatley play a gig without a backup, mainly because i couldn't afford one but it awsome. It's basically bulletproof

never had to, use it

i love this amp, i've had it about 3 months now and it's still great. It has enough grunt behind it to play gigs with that big booming sound as well as optional external speakers. If it was lost or stolen i would hunt the person down and proceed to slowly stab them to death with a blunt screwdriver. I would definatley buy it again although if i had enough money i'd have to go for an Ampeg head with amesa/boogie stack

This is actually a bass amp, I got it for my bass but a year ago I started to use it with my 6 string. It has Post and pre gain. High, Low nine equalizers (I am not sure of the frequency range). It also has a chorus, but I tend to stay away from using it. It also has a amp limiter that protects the speaker from any demage.

I play classic rock, this amp gives me what I wont. It not noisy, it works great for single coil clean sounds. If you really wont to use the amp to its fullest, get an overdrive (Chandler Tube Driver if possible) and pull the high eq. down and the high to 10. You will get a great juicy, tangy, saturated overdrive.

I must say I got ripped off! When I got it I only played for a year and I had no idea about anything! As time passed I wonted to get rid of the amp but I soon realized that good sound is were you find it. If I would have the chance I probably would buy the amp again but for 300$ not 500!
