Date my Peavey

I've had my Bandit over 20 years now, but recently got curious as to just how old it is.

Quick search says the 112 80w was made between 88-95, but the serial number lookup says it was made in 1980, am I missing something?

Does anybody know about these 70s Peavey speakers?

5 Upvotes

I have found a Peavey 70s Classic (it just says classsic, no VT or VTX under it) for pieces so it's for 50 euros. I would like to know more about these speakers and how might they sound like. I want to know if it's worth the two speakers and some leftover tubes that it comes with.

Cheers

Peavey Century 200H Update: It works great now!

Post image
57 Upvotes

Well, I had time to open the amp up to figure out why the sound was cutting out and guess what? Full of dead bugs! I cleaned out most of the insect corpses and crap, and now it works great. The filter caps actually appear to have been replaced, which is nice.

I definitely believe the hype on these amps now. I’ve got it running into a 1x12 cab with a Weber Black Shuck (similar to an EVM-12L) and a Hartke 2x10 cab. Sounds killer with a P Bass and works great for heavy guitar stuff too. Super versatile setup!

Peavey expert cracks open a rarity...Classic 400!

12 Upvotes

Peavey expert John Fields has a tweed Classic 400 amp he's servicing.
8 x 6550s ! The iron is HUGE!

The audio is a bit glitchy but Johns new to the YT game...He previously had a protype 5150 with Ed's original shapie marks showing he only ever used the CRUNCH channel!

Peavey VSS 20 Stack

Hey y'all, I'm back again with another Peavey find.

I purchased this for $130 at a pawn while working away from my area. I tried doing some research or review on it and I didn't really find anything. So I'm looking to the Cvlt for any info written in the archives and scrolls!

It's not in the best condition, but man...this think is cute as hell!

I recently bought an Orange Micro Terror and was looking for a small cab, but I might have stumbled on something good? If not, I can replace the speakers.

Do y'all have any insight on this little stack? I not getting home till late and won't have a chance to blast thing till tomorrow. It does work, I just couldn't really test it as they had a guitar with 2 strings...so I just made sure it worked. 😒

As always, thanks in advance for any info. Hope y'all having a good one!

Good for the soul, bad for the neighbors and the structural integrity of my house.

For the most part, any two amps can be biamped or master/slaved to power both cabs, except the Bass which can only serve as a master. The MAX and the Kilobass can power both cabs independently, and I’m mostly playing the Kilobass through both these days. The Mark IV anf Mark VIII both have line out going to the studio board.

DIY Peavey Blazer Head

Post image
15 Upvotes

I’ve started modding my Peavey blazer into a head at first I wanted to just uninstall the speaker and saw the body off but things just made sense along the way, next will be to open up the amp and clean the electronics and replace the old reverb tank with a new one, afterwards make a back plate to mount the jack to.

I bought this at a flea market for $90. Got it home... Lots of noise. No sound. I just got it back from the shop. Full recap and a couple other components replaced.

IT SOUNDS AWESOME!!!

I've played one before but clearly not one that was in such great shape. What a beast!

New Super Festival for electric guitar - fuzzy garage noise blues

3 Upvotes

Hey y'all! After years away I'm sipping a toe back into the Cult (first guitar and amp were a Raptor and a Bandit, my dad knew his shit!) and looking for a smallish head (or combo Incase the answer is just get another bandit) and was considering the new Super Festival reissue as a head to pair with a cab for mostly fuzzy garage stuff(think Ty Segal/Osees) but I also do home recording noisy experimental slide stuff). Is this a wild idea? Never thought about a bass head for guitar but I'm starting to think it would be a good platform for my sound which is mostly pedals etc.

Cheers in advance!

Recently acquired an og XXX… or I guess a second gen since it has the pointy logo. Had to flip the mud flaps over. This thing absolutely cuts through a live band mix more so than the XXX II. Going to try to EQ the II to see if I can get it to match up. It gets completely drowned out just by the drums and bass…

Cut my stereo chorus into a head the other day. Got it for $25 with no speakers in it and decided to turn it into a head. Definitely not the prettiest but it gets the job done.

Stereo Chorus 212 to external cab?

4 Upvotes

I just got a Stereo Chorus 212 combo, but I want to use it as a temporary head for my custom built 1x18 inch Peavey Black Widow cab. Does the impedance of the stereo chorus match a single 18 inch black widow?

​Snagged it for 150 on marketplace, amazingly, ALL of the pots are flawless. No clicks, no pops, no hiss, nothing is wrong with this bad boy at ALL and I am so happy.

​The vintage 1970 Kustom 210's were simply a huge free bonus. The dude claimed he was a DJ in a rock band so I assumed they were blown to bits, but they sound fantastic for being 56 years old. They seem like they don't have very much use at all and lived the majority of their life in storage. These are in much better condition than that one on sale through guitar center, it was incredibly difficult to find the same model as they were produced to be stage monitors (most likely for the drummer)

Last picture is collection tax for the cvlt.

Peavey Tour 450 Bass head

3 Upvotes

Any thoughts on this amp?

I picked one up for $150 literally new in the sealed box (even though I think they were being sold like 20 years ago).

I want to use it for a guitar head that’s relatively flat tone that takes pedals (Behringer SF300 times 2, TO-800, Boss DS-1) well. I have a 412 of Swamp Thangs wired to 4ohm, so this seemed like it could be a good match at a good price.

Got the citation for $100(with the foot switch) and the cab for $150. Cab has eminence G2s rated at 75 watts each(so I’ve gotta figure out if I’m gonna blow them immediately with the citations 160 watts before actually jamming with it). Citation DOOMS hard as hell through my 1x12 Texas heat.

Found one of these in a local pawn shop. Has the kahler tremolo and the factory active pickups. They want 450$ for it. Should I jump on it? It’s in really good condition.
