    Does peavey make good bass gear? I just sold my behringer setup and now I am looking into something else. I have a small little peavey practice amp that I use and I like the way it sounds. I was wondering if a 4-10 cab with a nice amp head would be good. I drive a car so I need something that can fit in the car with out being too heavy or too big. Any advice that can point me in the right direction?

    I like my 410TVX cab. It's really heavy, though. Hard to say whether you'll like anything without actually getting a little time in on the equipment, though. Go try out some before you drop the cash on it.

    Peavey is like almost all other mass-production brands, in that they make a wide range of gear from the crappiest beginner toy to the most primo professional rig, and all points in between. However they generally have a reputation for being durable and a good bang for the buck.

    Here's a thread worth reading: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=404158

    Name your budget and the genre(s) you play in if you'd like useful amp/cab suggestions.

    Peavey makes good gear. Some will say they don't like the tone, some will say they don't like the look, but everyone will agree that peavey bass amps are very very reliable and if taken care of will out live you but..........you said nothing big or heavy. Peavey gear is both big and heavy unless you are buying on of the new tour heads and neo cabs.......If you are looking used and dont have a lot to spend a peavey head will be great but if weight is an issue look for other cabs....perhaps avatar
