Sweetwater Advice

Brian Cravens
The Peavey Bandit has been around as long as I can remember. They introduced it in 1980, and it has stayed in the line since. The Bandit 112 is in its ninth iteration, and it sounds as good as ever (better actually!).

Great solid state amp.

My first amp was A peavey back in the 70's. through the years I have played Marshall, Fender, Carvin etc First the price, you can't go wrong. I tried this amp at A local music store, it sounded good. I came home and ordered one from sweetwater. When I finally got it. WOW, I was so blow away.After A little time tweeking, I got A great sound. In some cases I would even go as far as saying better than some tube amps. If you want A great sounding amp and don't want to spend a lot. Get this, You won't regret it.

Peavey Bandit 112

I don't have much experience with amps. I still have a lot to learn about setting them up. For what I need, this is the perfect amp. I just use it to jam and practice.

I think it was misnamed. True, this amp could steal the show with it's superb, tube like quality output; but, it gives more than it takes!

80 watts is probably a bit too much for the living room jam session. The power level switch is a big plus for this application. Now, I can use the amp in different settings!

I love it!
