- I picked up the Peavey 2x12 Tweed combo for the that price, and I love it.
- The 4x10 had a great sound for blues, but I didn't want to spend more nor
- lug a bigger box around. I'm more used to the 2x12 sound anyway. I love
- the feel and old-fashioned simplicity of this amp. It's built better than
- most other amps in it's price range (or even beyond).
