I'm not great on computers, but I couldn't find a peavey page with serial number data for a Nashville 400.
I have one that is 00-05590373 MFG LOC-04
Anyone know what all that means? Year? Other info?
Thanks |

I don't know of any link to serial info, but the first two digits, are the year. In this case, 2000.  |

The first two numbers are usually the year, but was the NV400 still in production in 2000?

| A friend got one from the last production run and if I remember correctly it was before 2000. |

I believe the first was 1983 (not positive). Mine is an 84. It would really surprise me if the NV400 was in production for 17 years.

| There is not an accessible s/n search on our website. Actually, the Nashville 400 was in production since 1983, so apparently you own one of the early models. |

| I can help you with determining the year of manufacture if you provide the serial number of your amplifier. |

By his first post, the number he posted appears to be a serial number. Mine says 4A-{8 more numbers} similar to his. I was told that the 4A meant the first quarter, or maybe they said month, of 1984. I bought it pretty early in 84, not more than 6 months after I used one in a show in Nashville in Octocer of 83, that the backline was furnished by Peavey or a dealer. The 00 at the beginning is what puzzles me.
Mike... When was the last NV400 produced? By the way, it's nice to see you active on here again.

| The 4A usually indicates 1984 "amplifier". |

Hi Mike Brown,
I still have a Peavey Nashville 400 with serial number: 7A-02953949. Can I assume that this amp was built in 1987?
It's an "Export 220-V" amp (I'm in the Netherlands) and it also has a "878" number printed behind that. I have no idea what that means.
On the bottom of the serial nr. plate there's a handwritten thing in black marker saying" DB 71375""although the second 7 could be a 1.
Lastly, from an (PDF) article you wrote for Peavey I understand that my amp has a 1501-
4 ohm version speaker. Is that correct since it doesn't have any sticker on it?
Thanks in advance for your reply. |

The 1501 has a smooth cone and the 1502 has a ribbed cone.
Donny and Lane. Good points. I have always used the high gain input with every guitar I have had during the time I have owned this amp. Never noticed any distortion, and I have played in bands that are so loud, they would drown out a jet's noise. I never even thought about the lo-gain input. If I ever gat to play out again, I'll have to take it for a test drive.
