Peavey KB-4 Amplifier

Post by Patrick Helly »

Greetings all ! 8)

My first post, but, been here listening for a few months. This site is great!

Has anyone tried the Peavey 75/100 watt KB-4 1-15 inch & piezo horn?
I needed a new keyboard amp and found it gives a warm sound for our 4-5 pice band. Cuts through well and I can double duty it for keys or PSG through the multi-channel inputs and it also has great tone for my Gretsch WF.
I'm also building an extension cabinet for a BW 15 for outdoor gigs in North County San Diego area.

Looking forward to Dallas/TSGA in March !

Chuck, hey thanks,

for me, I usually play keys through our mains and a floor monitor, but decided to go with smaller set up on-stage for more local control when we don't have a PA tech. Now for the PSG, I did say it added a warm deeper sound,,, but I didn't say I played well just warm ! >:-)

there is a weight trade off though... 85 lbs !

I'll also be going to my first PSG show in Phoenix,,hope to learn alot!
