Nashville 112
Peavey's Nashville™ Series has long been the standard for steel guitarists, and the company's support of this genre continues with the introduction of the Nashville™ 112. This new amp is smaller than the industry-standard Nashville™ 1000 (not available in Europe!), making it ideal for rehearsals and intimate live performances. Having said that, I hook up two of these for my regular gig with Albert Lee & Hogan's Heroes. One of them is mic'd up for the front-of-house P.A. I find the 80 watts more than adequate. It is extremely portable, unlike previous steel guitar amps from Peavey, like the Session 500! It has incredibly adjustable EQ, to allow you to get exactly the tone you're after! It is also amazingly good value. £589! "I can already (after 1 week) feel an improvement in my playing due to the increased enjoyment and confidence the amp gives me with it's excellent sound and range of tones..... also the CD input is great for practice ..... and when using headphones the amp's amazing tone range can be adjusted for optimum sound." - PH, Cheshire |

Check this user's review out! - and then phone me to order yours! Hi Gerry, I realize we have already spoken about this, but I just wanted to write to you anyway to say thanks for all your help and advice regarding this matter. I bought this amp purely on the basis of seeing you use it with Hogan's Heroes a few years ago and also I have been reading various test and user reports on the Pedal Steel forums on the Internet. I have been using an all valve Traynor combo that has been supplied to me by Talon, the Eagles tribute band that I work with, and as my main instrument is Guitar, ( I have been playing with Wishbone Ash for the last few years), the Guitar sound is also a concern for me. It only took me the time to set the amp up and dial in some basic settings (that I am more than happy to pass on to anyone who is interested) to know that this Peavey Nashville 112 is a very special little amp. Over the years I have used most of the top amps, both valve and solid state ranging from Mesa Boogie to the Peavey Session 400 and the Nashville 112 is as good if not better than the best of them. The sound for Pedal steel is just first class, straight out of the box; I understand they improve once the speaker is broken in, but for me that will just be a bonus. The more prickly subject of Guitar tone and suitability was next on my list to check and this amp also passed that test with flying colours. I ran a Pod XT live into the front end of the amp, only using the effects for the steel, and amp models for the guitar: the model I use is called California Crunch, and with very few tweaks managed in no time at all to find some smooth tones and great solo sounds (the secret being that this amp is very clean, loud and warm sounding) before adding any pedals or amp models. All in all, my final conclusion is that I will be using this amp for almost everything I do, from sessions to live work, for both pedal Steel and Guitar. Many thanks Gerry. Keith Buck |
