  • OK, it will never be a valve amplifier but the three switchable output power levels mean you can dial in a surprisingly good tone at reasonable volumes.

    Forgive me if I sound like a dick, but you may want to review your price. Old USA bandits typically change hands for around £50 - £60 on here. Best off putting it on eBay where you may get a bit more. Of course it's up to you what you ask for it.

    Hi jonnyburgo,

    Thanks for your comment. However, this is not a beaten-up Peavey Bandit with a clapped-out speaker that has been gigged to death as you can see from the pictures above. As stated in  my description, I bought it as a back-up amplifier in case my Peavey Valve KIng broke down during a gig but it was never needed so it sat at the back of the stage in it's flight case every night and then I took it home again. The Bandit is still under the manufacturers guarantee and has had around two hours use at home and I doubt whether the speaker is even 'run in' yet. I'm quite prepared to do a deal around the £100 mark if anybody is interested and wants to collect it. If it doesn't sell then that's OK but I'm not giving away an almost unused amplifier in mint condition. By the way, I have already sold the flight case separately.

  • Any interest in an 'as new' amp still under the manufacturer's guarantee?

    It's a great amp for the money.

    To be honest I would sell the Valve King instead (assuming you haven't already) and keep the Bandit. I honestly think it sounds better, as well as not having the potential reliability issues. The VK is not brilliant by Peavey's standards either for tone or build quality.

    Used to jam with a guy who played a vk, always thought it was pants. Much prefer my bandit!
     so if you fancy a reissue of a guitar they never made in a colour they never used then it probably isn't too overpriced.
