What kind of Amp is Peter Nylund playing thru (the Peavey with the horn)?
Looks like a Reno 400 but I didn't know they came with a black widow. |

Yes, it's my Reno 400 and it does have a BW speaker. They're intended for fiddle. I found it in Dublin music shop and bought it for next to nothing. It didn't sound too good for steel until I disconnected the horn. Now it's essentially a Nashville 400 with a taller cabinet. It has been my gigging amp for ten years or so.
Since I live fairly close to the venue I brought it with me intending it to be available as a spare in case any of the "decent" amps gave trouble. Since I was first on and had a bit of time to spare I hooked it up. It sounded ok mic'd through the PA so I went ahead and used it myself. It remained on stage for most of the first day. Everybody sounded great to me but then, it's all in the hands isn't it |

Yes, I used it too, thanks Paul. I thought it was some sort of keyboard amp, it certainly sounded good to me. I would keep hold of that one if it aint too heavy.

Thanks for the feedback on the Reno.
I recently picked one up and have done two gigs with it so far.
Mine has a no-name (non-BW) 4ohm speaker in it (possibly the original).
It sounds really great for electric guitar, and very good for Steel, as is.
I bought if from a fiddle player. |
