Hi guys, I just got a Peavey Bandit 65, when I looked in the back I realized it wasn't a Scorpion speaker. Can anyone identify this speaker for me? Thanks

| I have a few older Peaveys that don't have speaker labels on them, but there should be an ink stamped number on the frame that would tell you about it. |

What would that be? I had three Bandit 65's and they all have different speakers.
1: Scorpion Plus
2: Scorpion
3: This unknown speaker |

| I am not sure sure what it is called, but it might be (blue marlen)....if you will look in the amps for sale section there is a nv112 for sale, it looks like that one....thanks jack |

That could very well be a Blue Marvel...they come in NV112s and have no labels.

Scorpions are made for 6 string guitars. Some guys like 'em for steel, but I don't. I think the Blue Marvel sounds better for steel, but won't handle as much power.
Now, a Black Widow is another subject. I think it sounds better than both the Scorpion and the BM. And more power handling ability.

| I blew my scorpion speaker last month at a church service and replaced it with a scorpion plus. |

I put a Sica neo in my 80's Bandit 65.. great improvement for pedal steel..it's a fine rehearsal,lower volume gig or studio amp now...way better than the scorpion..
