Thats an easy one, Nashville 400 with LeMay mods for me. I also use a Fender Steel King. Never cared for the Session 400, 500, or the newer 1000

sorry terry i didnt see your question
some players say the nash112 is a little
low on power for them.......
i use one on all my gigs and it does great for me it depends on how much stage volume you have to overcome i guess
i also have and use the nash 400
it rocks!! but its heavey man
to answer your question i would use the 112 over the 1000 and the 400

I own at this time the NV400, NV1000 and the NV112. A couple of years ago at the HOF show we had at out FSGC Scotty asked me as we were packing up "Is that a Nashville 400?
I said "yes". His reply was "don't ever sell it". That was good enough advice to me from someone who knows. If it wasn't for the weight I'd use it more often than my NV112.
My two cents worth.

Does the Nashville 400 weigh more or less than the session 400? I sold a session 400 and session 500 because of the weight. I was thinkin the N 400 weighed less than the
session 400. Maybe I should just keep my two 112s.
Thanks for your imput guys.

Well I was wrong, I did not think there was a better amp than the Vegas 400. I just bought a Session 400, I pluged in and did not touch a knob, It put a smile on my face the first note till the last.
The more I tuned the farther away from that first sound.
I had a N400 Ken put in the Mod, still did not like it, sold to a friend, he likes it.
I have a n112, do not like it, nor the 1000.The weight problem, it is not like you have to move it every few minutes, I am 76 bought a folding hand truck, slide it under the amp and roll it to the car, pick it up and put it in the trunk no big deal.
I sure like the sound of the Session 400, enough to deal with the weight.
