Peavey Tour TNT 115 Bass Combo Amp 

Comments about Peavey Tour TNT 115 Bass Combo Amp:

Between the great sound the power and ruggedness I love it. The only thing that is questionable is the shape of the back for the tilt back design. While it does allow you to tilt back I wouldnt stack it on top of another amp as well as the control panel is on top so you cant see it. But one thing that is nice is that when you transport it you can face the speaker towards the front of the car and sit it in the back seat peffectly and this is in a little 2001 nissan altima! When carrying you can do it by yourself easily if you put the top of the amp flat against your chest it isnt light but very managble, I've even gone up two flights of stairs with it without too much trouble, just watch your step becasue you can't see your feet. Overall it's a big win in terms of power portability sound control and durability. So seriously buy it!
The features that allow you to shape your sound to almost anything the tweeter is strong and it has one heck of a kick. The only thing it lacks is a strong midrange. I hooked it up to a 410 extension cab at guitar center and it was the absolute perfect balence of lows mids and highs, not to mention the additional volume.
I've had this bass for 9 months now and it has taken its share of abuse. Ive taken it to many jam sessions and pushed it when playing with a drummer. The toughness is unmatched I had a leaky pipe that dripped water on my amp all night I dried it off waited a few days and it worked without a hitch. I then fixed the pipe and it broke again the exact same thing happened and it came back just as strong.

Not my big rig; bought this for little jams. Addtion of an extension cab gives this thing a lot more breathing room, of course. Without, it can keep up with a big combo amp and drum-kit if it's pushed, and they hold back. I have a headroom bias, though. Tone is good and fairly transparent.

Consider geometry; Is it for you? Awkward to carry alone but do-able. Easy to carry with a friend. Front heavy. No sensible way to add casters. Can sit on a hand-cart but not as easily as most. Tipped back, amp controls are inacessible. 1) Tip up. 2) Adjust. 3) Tip Back. 4) Evaluate. 5) Repeat. or just leave the thing square. And if you add a cab, it's likely not to stack.

EQ, Compressor, and other controls are good and functional. Hard to determine positions of push buttons -- LEDs would have made a big difference. Watch rear rocker switch to exclude tweeter: it's easily bumped in transport. Nice long electrical cord, but no place to store it on the amp - don't leave it behind.
Got mine on the cheap in Used Condition C 'Good'; broken cabinet. Yet, despite it's violent past it is rock solid with no rattles. Pushbuttons sometimes stick or pop up.
Great value in Condition C. Otherwise, I'd wait a few hundred $ more and go bigger or better.

This amp is, without a doubt, the best I have heard in this size. I have turned it up to 4 in my local store, had the neighboring business two stores down come in and ask me to turn it down. It is VERY loud, raw, bassy, bright, punchy, raunchy, elegant, and wonderfully inexpensive. I say inexpensive as a relative term. i understand this is not an easy price to swallow for some people, but this amp was so much worth it, I took up a job (mostly for the fun of the job) to finance this amazing thing, so that I could own it for myself.

I could say that the tilt-back is a little weird and annoying, and it is, but that is something small to overlook. This amp is well worth the price and strange tilt-back feature. Trust me on this one, I have honestly played everything from a very cheap Ibanez GIO bass on this to a Warwick thumb bass, and a Spector Pro series 5 string.

Aslo, for the djentlemen and ladies, I HAVE tested out the amp's hnote handling, and know that it registers things below G1 very indly, and if needed, F# should be no problem. ;D

This amp has a lot of features; ones other amps don't have, and that makes it impressive. I giving it all these features, one might sound not up to par with the others, but rest assured, they are all fully dynamic and pretty. I myself am not a fan of the crunch, but that is just my taste. Some one else in store (I have played it a million times at a local store and am finally paying it off.) thought it sounded great.
THe 7 band EQ really gets me going, because I have a VERY specific sound, and without a visual EQ, I feel lost/without my tone. The low end is SO strong. I usually have the treble turned way up because of how wonderful it sounds; no horrible distortion from high gain! If you are lookingfor a good sounding amp with a few fun adjustments to be made to the EQ and overall tone, this is the one.

I have to say, it would have gotten a 10 if it were not for the tilt-back. It might be nice if it was a little wider. or having it be an option. It becomes a little iffy when playing at a store with an amp you don't own (yet), with a bass you don't own in your hands, with no strap on, and you have to very gently lift it up or lower it down to make sure it doesn't roll all the way over. It does project, but at a show or practice, I would not want it to fall over and some how break the AC adapter, or ruin any AWOL cords behind it.
It would also be a nice feature to have a light on the EQ board, but it isn't really neccisary if you own a flashlight/phone
This amp has quality construction, EQ options, cab design, and the blue logo is a fancy additive. The amp is pretty, and prettyu sounding. Everything is clear coming out, and I can honestly say that it will give life to ANY bass; I have played the cheapest, gross sounding bass on this, and it sounded wonderful. Surely not as wonderful as studio quality, but a GREAT touring bass tone. My point there is that if you have a not-so-great bass, this is a great amp to get. This will spice it up a bit.
Totally worth it. I think the bass amp completely blows all other competition out of the water.
I hear people throwing around the Hartke X3500. That amp is absolute garbare next to this thing (and any other amp.) Where the... er... beautiful X3500 decides to distort my high C string because of my personal EQ set-up, I have to mess up my tone. THat is upsetting.

THere is no need to do this with the peavey. Please take my word when I say that this is so much more worth while. I have played other competition amps all over the place, and there is no comparison. I have a great freind with a Peavey TNT 115 from the 90s that is still in working condition. It's not pretty looking, but it still plays loud and fully punchy and wondefully. I own a Peavey Cab and head for practice, and the thing is still working just fine, aside from the cab speaker being destroyed from storage problems. THe head still sounds great, has tone, and definition. Peavey is completely capeable of long-term use. Be prepared to have this for a while.

Could not be more pleased with the product, just be sure you have a larger vehicle to haul it in if you are moving it, its a pretty big amp. 1 person is capable of carrying it, but 2 is safer.
Everything you could possibly want. From a crunch feature, a brightness feature, all kinds of gains, an option for your type of pickup, whether active or passive, a speaker protect feature so you dont blow your amp. Its amazing.
I have never had any problems with this amp and I have owned it for a year and a half now. Great sound, great performance.
I am pretty cheap when it comes to spending my money, but let me tell you this amp is more than worth what is asked for it. I have heard amps upwards of 1,000 dollars sound worse than this one. For the price, its the best you will get.

I would recoment this amp for someone who wants to play outdoors because for a medium venue its overkill.its kind of heavy.you need to carry it with two people and it tends to roll when you lift it.but I think thats the price you have to pay for an amazing tone.much better than the hartke vx3500
this is an amazing bass amp.I can dial any tone for any style and it won't let me down.alot of power!I have not pass 4 and if I do you wouldn't hear the rest of the band.I can't wait to buy the peavey headliner 2-10 and feel its full power.
I only wish that it was built out of plywood!
I Don't like that is a kick back cabinet

I just bought this from a local music store, and I love it. It is easily one of the best values for an amp on here. The crunch is awesome if you don't have the tweeter on as it will feedback. I love the 7 band eq. The blue logo is pretty snazzy. My only complaint is that for 600w it's not loud at all. I am most likely gonna get an add on cab.

This amp has great sound. however, wished it had a Chorus and Flanger on it. One very Important note> the Kick back is great to get the sound out there... however, CAREFULL, it will keep going all the way ! had to make a stopper bar. really sucks when your DI cord gets trashed because someone at Peavy was NOT thinking ahead.

My Dad had a Peavey TNT and now I have a Peavey TNT. I love it! It sounds great and is plenty portable. I liked the GK too, but when I turned it up it was too light and scooted across the floor. Go with what you know and buy a Peavey!

Just got this amp to save me from hauling my svt around to smaller jobs but seems to have the power to do any job just fine. The true power is 300 watts rms by its self or 450 watts with external 8 ohm speaker connected but still has all the power you will need. People who have complained about it buzzing need only to take a screw driver and tighten the speaker and all other screws. Any equipment that comes from the orient needs to be gone over because of the difference in humidity causes wood to shrink slightly. I have found all guitars from there need to have fret ends filed because of fingerboard shrinking from humidity differences and this is no exception. The first thing i did when i got mine was to remove the grill and tighten the speaker then tighten all other screws. Every screw is loose but once you have done this you will have a great buzz free amp. The amp seems to be a great amp so far with great volume for its size and good bottom end. I highly recomend this combo.
