Congratulations on your purchase of the Peavey Nashville
ª
1000. As the leader in steel guitar
amplification, we are proud to combine innovation and tradition in this new model. Our digital amp
provides the clean power you require and reduces the weight, while the enhanced tone circuitry
eliminates the desire for unnecessary after-market modifications. We still offer a premium spring
reverb, our famous Black Widow
¨
1501-4SB speaker, a back-panel preamp output and power amp
input, patented DDT
ª
speaker protection circuit, a pre EQ effects patch (recommended for volume
pedals), and a post EQ effects patch point, which is now footswitchable.
We know you are anxious to start playing, so weÕve included a ÒQuick StartÓ section and a
ÒRecommended SettingsÓ section. These are certain to get you on your way. However, it is
important that you read the safety precautions first. Scan through this manual and locate
these safety icons:
Each safety icon is followed by a warning. Read that warning carefully before continuing. Once you
have read all of the warnings ,refer to the ÒQuick StartÓ section below if you so desire. It is
recommended that you read this manual in its entirety to fully understand the functions of each
feature.
