i,ve got chance to get good buy on peavey l.a. 400 amp with b/w speaker with foot switches. being new to psg i don,t own dedicated amp for psg as of yet. but for 200.00 i think i,ll hate myself if i don,t buy it. i read some use nashville 400. was wondering if l.a 400 would get job done. it,d be just stay home practice amp . any input appreciated. Thanks James

I used an LA400 for a couple of years, and I liked the steel sound I got. I play at Church, and use a Digitech 2112 processer / preamp, I then went to a direct box which split out a balanced output to the house system. I went from the direct box to the LA400 for my monitor.

This amp had way more than plenty of power in this situation. The amp is a little smaller than a Nashville, but it's probably as heavy as one. I also played lead guitar which also sounded good through it. About 6 months ago I went to in-ear monitors and so I don't use an amp at all anymore.

The L.A. 400 was a very powerful amp in a small package. Thanks for your support.
