Tele through a Peavey 400

Post by Brandon Roper »

Hello gentlemen,
I am contemplating buying a nashville 400 from fellow forum member Richard McKinney. I really shouldn't spend the $ but it seems like a great deal.My question is can i play my Fender Tele through the 400 w/ a distortion stomp box or orher effects box and get a good sound or is this Peavey designed to be a "clean" sounding, steel guitar amp only.
Thanks, Brandon

I haven't played Peavey amps is years, but yes the Nashville 400 is designed to be clean. Any dirt will have to come from an effects box. I'm sure others on here play guitar through one and can give you their opinions.

Brandon: The Session 400 is a very clean amp. I had one for 17 years. I now have a Nashville 1000. I will tell you this. Through either one---A tele will suck!
