??? for Mike Brown at Peavey

Skip Mertz · Post by **Skip Mertz** » 30 Nov 2003 3:18 am

How extensive is the Peavey mod for the older Nashville 400s? what is the cost, and can it be installed me (ie: easily)? Also the mid control is making a hellasious noise
cracking and popping? Thanks Skip

PS Has Peavey ever thought about making a 2 pc. rig? separate session 400 or 500 head with 2 spkr outs? sure might help, since most of the steel players are up in yrs!

Mr. Brown, while we're on the topic, how do I know if my amp has the mod or not? (Obviously, I haven't checked the serial number lately) but, assuming mine is older (I think it is), how do I know?

Other than the serial number, the only thing that you can do is pull the chassis and check the components for identification. Here is the parts list;http://www.peavey.com/media/pdf/steelgu ... h400mo.pdf

Also, here is a board layout to check the identification of the IC's; http://www.peavey.com/media/pdf/steelguitar/Nashville400.pdf

All Nashville 400's were modified at the factory before shipment after serial number 08575482. fyi.

Thank you Mike, you are a scholar and a gentleman.

As I suspected my amp is an older model (# 05911167), so I'll have to crack her open.
