What size and type of speaker does the
112 have? Is the amp a 85 watt output?
I am interested in getting one and
would welcome the info. Thanks!

There are tons of (positive) posts about the 112 on here. Do a search.
It has a 12" "Blue Marvel" speaker and is rated 80 watts. |

More and more steelers are discovering the Nashville 112 and are very pleased with its performance.
Thanks for using our products.

I think some folks give up too soon on the 112. I think it was about thirty or forty hours before mine started to sound like I thought it should. Do these things break in to the guitar and the picker ?

| It takes about that long for the speaker cone to get broken in and soften up a bit. When the speaker is new, the cone is stiff and doesn't flex as well as one that is broken in. My 112 is about a year old and it has a sweet, mellow tone that is clean and clear through the entire range. |

I need to echo what Willis says. If I were to have judged the sound of this amp new out of the box, I would have said "it's not the sound for me". But I had heard that the Blue Marvel takes some break in time. So I set up a break-in system in my garage. A great Hal Rugg CD played loud for about 20 hours over a period of a week. To my ear, there is a HUGE difference in the sound of the amp. Back in the early 80s I played a Broadway show and bought a new Session 400 and used it right out of the box. It sounded fantastic at first and after about sixty performances, I thought it degraded more than just a little. Most likely it was my brain that degraded

I to have a 1980 Peavey Session 400.
After this long time of use it died.So I
put the chasis from my Peavey 100 hybrid
in the cabnit with the 15" black widow
and never looked back. Made the 400 sound
like the last rose of summer. The reson
I was wondering about the 112 is if it
will take the lows on the c-6.That was
the reson for relacing the chasis.

It will handle the low notes without breaking a sweat. It'll handle the C and even the low A without any noise at all. These are great little amps. I love mine.

I play a great deal of C6, and the N112 handles the low notes brilliantly. A pair of N112's will blow you away if you decide you want that power, and they are small and light, easy to carry around, one in each arm. Either as a single or pair, they are fantastic amps.
