We will have more to report on this amp soon as we are doing a lot of research on it at this moment, but it looks like the amp that is going to be the monster of all time.

Even bigger than a 12-string Franklin guitar?

I don't know if it will be "bigger" or not but it will make a Franklin sound pretty cotton pickin' good, as good as anything will. (I did get the humor here though Earnest).

Bobbe, a couple questions:

I got the big amp covered (Webb614-E)
And the smaller amp...Peavey's answer to the fender twin tube(Classic 50/212)
I love both these amps.

1. Does this mean I have to buy another amp now?

2. the 112 has a blue Marvel 12" right. Must be a pretty dam good speaker then. Should be no need to uprade then from the TWO BM's that come with the Classic 50 then.

3. The Standels were a solid state and had there own unique "classic" sound still desired by some like BE. Specially with a Bigsby or maybe a p/p right?

4. How much are they?

Keeping topics in the proper section is important to future search engine use.

Bobbe.

I need to know some real facts here as it's gonna be "time" here pretty soon

I find that for performing live the Nashville 400 is all I need. It does have some small failings and like my Session 500, from 1979, it's getting bush whipped. Neither one has missed a stroke for more than ten years. I always play them til the heat sinks are hard to touch and they are always right there.

OK/

How does it stack up to the Nshv400 power wise? Does it clip at outdoor levels?

Does it have a Low Z line out for PAs?

Is the reverb deeper than the 400?

Is that Blue 12" speaker as heavy sounding as the BWs?IS a BW an option?

What I'd like to do is just a 112 for most medioum club gigs. If it indeed does stack up in dou with my Nvl400, I'd use it in dou.

The Session5 with the Biamp capability is always an option, but damn, it's really hard to lug. There aren't many places I can't cover with the 400/500 combo, but would like to see about a smaller duo.

Thanks. I doubt SHowcase in town here has one, and I don't like doing business with them anyhow.

if 599 is MSRP, could we expect 450 to be a good price?

THanks for any answers.

Tired out tonite ...

I use a Peavey EDI for direct out of a Nash 400.

It sounds like it's built into this new amp.
Is that correct?

Joey, Yes, it does,

My new Christmas CD will be recorded with one, and I usually go direct.
My 112 is in the studio now. Do I love it? What do ytou think.
Try one Joey, you'll love it.

This is all I'm saying on this subject.
