Robert, Without sounding like a smarty pants, try the search on here. There are more discussions about which amp, pedal, and guitar, than you could ever hope to find. You'll even find that Hilton makes a fine pedal, Nashville 1000's are nothing like Nashville 112's, and rosewood guitars sound best. Or something like that.

Some of you guys kill me.A new member signs on. Ask a question.You tell him to do a search. Since he's new.Maybe he don't know were to search? And who should he listen to?There is a lot of good advice here.However there are plenty of guys giving advice that don't there a$$ from a hole in the ground.

If you really want to help the guy? Maybe do a quick search for him? To me it just comes off as rude.I know all we old timers are tired of gear questions.Unless their our own. But maybe it's not so bad to let a newbie start a thread and get answers like the rest of us did.Robert struck gold.

Thank you Mike Brown for actually contributing something.You always do.I know it's part of your job. But thanks anyway.

Robert, Welcome to the Forum. It's kinda like being at a new school.They'll warm up to you after a few days.

Hey Robert welcome to the Forum...
Like Bobby said you struck Gold Mike Brown is the man to talk too about any question about Peavey Equipt.
The amp settings will vary with every Steel Guitar and Volume Pedal, but Mike can give you a good starting point.
I have a NV-1000 and love it with my Emmons LeGrande II.
Good Luck
Larry

Mike's the guy for Peavey advice.

I'll add that amp settings should vary depending on what your playing venue is at the time. One set of settings does not work in all sizes and shapes of rooms. It takes time, but learning how to tweak your amp is invaluable to getting great tone.

Hi Robert,

If you do try a search, I would do it in the Electronics section. Just plug in "Nashville 100 settings" and see what turns up. If that doesn't work, just try Nashville 1000. I don't think I've heard the 112 is better. My understanding is that you've got one of the best-sounding Peaveys ever made for steel -- lucky you! I don't have one, or I'd give you advice for settings. The 112 has simply amazed steelers due to it's light weight and sound for a 12" speaker. I don't know if the 1000 has the same type of mid dials the other Nashville amps have, but a common setting for those is 10 am on the left dial and 2 p.m. on the right dial.

Good luck, and if you're new to the forum, welcome!
