Ya i'm not very happy about peavey i bought a peavey combo tnt 115 with a black widow speaker in it and the dumb thing weighs like 104 lbs. and it does have a punchy sound but the vol. is only at 1 any more it buzzes and pops and truly for that size of amp it doesn'have alot of vol. to it and get this for a 104 lbs. amp it only has a handle on top and no casters i think i will sue peavey for my sore back
so for all my posts i will put at the end
PEAVEY SUCKS

The 200 series weight differs depending on the speaker load..but I'll tell you that I've been loading a pair of the 2x15 cabs since I was 16, am now 47 and just used them again this past weekend...casters, side handles in the right position..Ross put a whole lot more thought and care into his rigs than any manufacturer these days...heck, he's got more screws in his cab than any 3 rigs by the other guys...just a huge difference in the quality and amount of materials that went into those old kustoms...I'm a believer...you'll love your 200 2x15 rig...even better when you snag the second cab for it...oh, and highly recommend CTS for warmth, but the best load is the old Altecs...just ask BC...he's the bass master!

well I must agree,I have a 1970 Kustom 250 head and a 2 15 bottom (Blue Tuck), had to throw that in.lol. But this amp still amazes me everytime I use it. I do wish I had 1 more matching 2 15 cab but I forgot to buy another in 1970. must of had somethin else in my mind ..oops. well you can not go wrong on a Kustom for sure..Peace

Hi there folks, there are some mouth watering Kustom amps for sale on ebay but this seller appears to be real flakey. Here's the amp I'm dying for http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3700333853&category=4713
Anyone here know the seller? I'd love to own this amp but caution is wise.

He did answer my email and said everything works on the Red one. It's about 400 miles from me. If I go for it and ask him if I can pick it up COD. His feedback is frightening, John

Man is that scary feedback..only way I'd do that auction is to hand him the money in person as I was loading the amp into my van...I remember this guy from a couple years back when he was buying like crazy...he's not making any real profit cause he always paid premium bucks...if he came up on an auction I knew I was not going to win it cause he'd always out bid me. I remember emailing him to be friendly and he did respond several times, nicely..not freindly, but nice..he sent me a couple pics of his rigs..mostly he has marshalls (hence the name)..had a room with them around every wall and a pool table stuck in the middle that could never be played for all the full stacks he had around it..the guy has some serious gear and primo condition stuff, but yeah, he'll want/need full price..sounds like hard times may have hit and he's ready to unload..feel for him in that situation...but with multiple negatives.. I'd really watch out..ya gotta piss somebody off pretty bad to get negative feedback cause you just don't want to risk it coming back on you. .but for these other guys to be complaining this bad...watch yourself dude..face to face if you can...and that's a real shame..and 400 miles is a hike!..let us know how it comes out...we might have to call the kustom gang together and go pay this guy a visit

ET, thanks a lot for the scoop. I'm waiting for his reply now about possibly picking up the amp if I win. From the pics the amp looks mint! Might be cool to see some of the other stuff he has up close IF he's willing. He has more good feedback than bad but your right I've been rooked a couple of times and was worried about the getting in a feedback war. It's usually not worth the trouble in the long run. I plan to take due care while dealing with this guy. If the amp is as it appears in the photos and I can get it $600 what do you think, is it worth it? Thanks again, John

never ask me about price cause I'm always on the emotional side of the line...translation..heck yeah!..its worth it!
but yes, a minty clean sparkle rig...used to be you could find some real bargains..sometimes you still can, but thanks to ebay and to some of these rigs having been bought and sold several times within a fairly active group..the prices are just about saturated and the sellers really aren't making a heck of a lot..some are just trying to get out from under, as I suspect our marshalman is doing...sounds like he's planning to move or something..he sounds a tad stress on the 5 day requirement, and yet he's not listed a fraction of what he owns, although I'm guessing the marshalls are probably selling locally just fine..he really has some nice ones....youre being cautious and that's good...if you love the amp...get it...$50 here or there in the scheme of things....
