You could easily build a wooden frame and attach black marshall grille cloth to it, then mount a Peavey logo to that. It would look sharp!
Wow Johnny Mack, you have no need for Tolex, do you?
no sir (or ma'am, whichever applies...)
been looking for some good shag carpet or possibly real tacky 70s wallpaper design material
. but bare has done me good for awhile now.
Count me in. I've got the Classic 400, a 5150 II and a Butcher. Those guitar amps are excellent for bi-amping.
Favourite setup is: Gibson RD Artist--> Peavey BAC-2 crossover/chorus pedal---> (low freq.) Classic 400/Ampeg 810HPC---> (high freq.) 5150 II/Marshall MF400B
MAGIC!!!

Because not all Peavey amps are made-in-the-USA, and since I personally am not made-in-the-USA (I am made in Taiwan), I didn't want people to feel that if their favorite Peavey amp was made in an Asian country, that it was somehow lesser of a product. I remember back in the 1980s when people thought that made-in-Japan Fenders were somehow inferior, and now they are generally recognized to be of higher quality then the US Fenders of the same time period. I also remember how people ridiculed Japanese cars for so many years.
Asian people (Chinese people in particular) are the only group of people that it is politically correct to be prejudiced against here in the US. That is why this club is not part of the US Peavey Club. I hope that answers your question.
Shamelessly swiped from another thread here in the Amps section...

I'd like to join the Peavey Amp Club as well...
My one and only bass amp is a Peavey TNT 150 which is in very fine condition. Since I do not gig, I need nothing else. In the studio the Producer runs myself and the other session bassist direct. At church we have a GK (600 watts) for usage there.
I own a bunch of other Peavey amps... all of them for guitar thou.

I LOVE the blue lights! Maybe since becoming the US distributor from Trace Elliot, they realized just how cool those little lights look on stage.
Do you know if the new TKO's are any lighter then the last generation? The specs don't say whether or not they're using neo speakers.
Here's an old photo of me with my Peavey MkIII atop of my 2 old Fender bassman 412's.
The MKIII is in a coma at the moment and I might get around to getting it fixed one day, but not sure that it is worth fixing.
If anyone wants to buy it as is (Not working) drop me a PM.
It was a great amp and served me very well for many years. It's done a lot of miles but anyone that ever owned one of these would appreciate what a powerful monster this is.

Darkrider1.......Well, I'm not sure if it's a copy. I posted a thread trying to identify the model of what I purchased, and nobody, including Peavey, could tell me what I had found. It's has Peavey handles, a Peavey front screen, and Black Widow drivers. But the speaker configuration is unheard of in any Peavey speaker cab combo. It has 2x15 speakers vertically on the bottom, with 2x12 speakers up top horizontally positioned. So either I found a rare "one-off" production model that was short-lived, or somebody went through painstaking efforts to try to build their own Peavey cab. But no info is listed anywhere on the cab about it's orgin. So I only have all the Peavey components to identify it. So in my book it's definitely Peavey!
