I am looking at a Peavey 2000 that a forum member has for sale. If it is not to much trouble, could some one give a estimate on the weight of the amp. I am thinking that my peavey session 400 limited weights around 71 pounds. Hoping the 2000 would be lighter. Thanks in advance..Jr. Watts _________________ Sierra 12/10 gearless, Gibson Console Grand, Homemade dobro, Gretsch 5122, Peavey Session 400 limited, Peavey Classic VTX, Spectra 30-7. |

Those weigh less than a standard size pickup truck, but not much else. |

The Nashville 1000 weighs in at 57 pounds, may have to add a pound or two for the on board processor in the '2000'. If you replace the stock BW speaker with the Eminence EPS-15C, it should shave off around five pounds or more and still maintain (or perhaps improve) the tone.. |

Amp weight is 56 lbs. I just sold one and weighed it on my commercial scales in the shop. As it does npot have a reverb tank, I suspect it would weight a bit less than a Nashville 1000. A N112 weights right at 43 pounds. So that is not all that heavy of an amp, especcialy compared to an older Session 500 |

Thanks to all who replied about the weight of the peavey 2000. I was looking around today and came up with a 4 space rack with an ETA power conditioner and a peterson rack mount tuner in it. I already have a trans tube fex and 2 12" black widows with new baskets out of a Peavey VTX series amp.I think I may try to build a rack system when I find a 1 space power amp.I am going to see if I can build my own cabinets. New experiences never stop. Keeps my brain busy. thanks again everyone.
