Having owned and played a '70s Session 400 w/ the flat back/spider label Black Widow, how does the tone of the Nashville 112 compare -- E9 neck only, don't have a C6 neck, and don't plan on one for a long time if ever.... I've had Nashville 400s and a Session 500, and the tone of those was good, but nowhere near as 'right' as that of the old Session 400... would I be disappointed in a N-112 (dont have access to one around here!), I have to admit, the weight and size is attractive... but the old '400 tone... hmmm

Tone wise, I would rather the 70's model Session 400 I used to have even though I currently use a NV-112. They have a totally different tone!

I have both, and they are two WAY different amps. The 112 will NOT be an improvement on the Session. You are good with what you're using. Smile

wellll right now, I'm using ummm nothing short of a headphone amp!.. I mistakenly sold the Session 400 about 4 years ago, and now am looking for something to fill the gap, and was wondering if I should pursue an old 400, or try one of the newer lighter Nashville 112's...

The Peavey LTD. (Not the Session LTD.) would also be a good catch, they weigh around 50-52lbs. Same as a Session 400 only in a smaller package. The Peavey
LTD. & Session 400 or 2 great sounding amps, pleanty of tone & power.
Good Luck
