Congatulations on your purchase of the Peavey Nashville 112. As the leader in steel guitar amplification,
we are proud to offer you this smaller, more portable, lightweight cousin to the popular Nashville 1000
amplifier. This amp has all of the same front panel features as the 1000 along with a newly designed 80
Watt power section, an added headphone jack, and a CD input which makes it an ideal choice for practice
or small venues. The Nashville 112 also features a long-pan Accutronics reverb and a newly designed 12"
Blue Marvel speaker that has been carefully voiced for steel guitar applications.
We know you are anxious to start playing, so we’ve included a “Quick Start” section and a
“Recommended Settings” section. These are certain to get you on your way. However,

imperative that you follow these precautions for the safety of yourself and your amp.
Step 2. With the amp turned off, plug the power cord into the proper voltage supply indicated on the back of the
unit near the cord retainer.
Step 3. Plug your guitar into either the High or Low Gain input and turn all knobs counterclockwise to their “0”
position.
Step 4. Using the “Recommended Settings” on page 8, find the type of tone that most closely resembles the tone
you wish to obtain.
Step 5. Set the knobs on the front of the unit to match the setting you have selected.
Step 6. Turn your guitar volume down and turn the amp on via the power switch on the back of the unit.
Step 7 Gradually turn the volume of your guitar all the way up or until you are comfortable with the level/tone.
Step 8 To adjust the overall level, use the Master Gain control.
Step 9. To adjust out any undesirable distortion, use the Pre Gain knob. Turning the knob counter-clockwise results
in a decreased level, thus reducing the overdriven signal. Any external effects units can also cause the signal to
overdrive.
Step 10. You should be able to play at this time. Vary the Reverb and/or EQ knobs to get a feel for their effect on
your tone. Most importantly....
