I think the Renown sounds way better, by a lot. Like, no comparison better.😐

Renowns are great! Like the hair on the distortion with it. Maybe it'll get the same exalted status the Bandits have in the future..

I have a peavey Triumph 120 head from the late 80's in perfect condition. Do you want to borrow it and have some fun?!

Thanks again!

I wonder what it would sound like with the picjups lowered. ?

Bandit for the win! Sounds like some designer tried to make the other one sound like a fender copy. They shoulda stuck to their big Peavey Tone

Holy smacks! That sounds great!

Love it!

I agree....i had both like you do

I love my PEAVEY SPECIAL 112 !!!! best gigging amp ever!

I love Bandits. I have a 2004 Bandit 112 transtube (made is USA). I still gig with it. these are built like a tank. every rock/metal guitarist should have one Bandit in collection.

WTF

Nice video. I've got a Weber Axis speaker in my Bandit 65. However, I'm pretty sure that Scorpion has been reconed, so not quite stock. A Scorpion should have a non-ribbed, non-seamed cone. That one apppears to be ribbed and seamed like an Eminence 1258 cone. The guy at Hempopotamus sells a recone kit for Scorpions with that style of cone, could be his work.

Every subtle nuance of a guitar is lost when you run a wireless system.

Slight clarity advantage to the cream back! Scorpion a bit scooped. But hey it’s been around the block :)

There are so many jewels they made ! Getting recognition from a new generation of players already seeing prices rise !!! ❤

I have a Bandit 75 from the mid / late 80's. It is damn LOUD. and heavy. I love the clean channel though. Great amp.

OK, people who make videos, please learn how to mic things. You didn’t mute your camera’s mic so we can’t actually hear the amp, we hear the room the amp is in.

I have 1 Bandit with a creamback in it. Love it

Not much of a peavey guy but if I has to play one I would prefer an 80s era Heritage. Much better sounding amp with much better response to your playing style.

Back in 89 my band opened for a band/ artist whose videos were at the time on heavy rotation on MTV. My gear at the time consisted of a Japanese copy of a Gibson Flying V and a good ole peavey bandit. lol.

Ended up preordering that guitar in ebony. Really excited to get it in at some point.

Listening to peavey amps is akin to rubbing a cheese grater across your head.

I have an old 1987 Bandit 75 with the original Scorpion 8-ohm speaker, and it's big brother the Special 150. Love them both! Great transistor amps and plenty loud!

Enjoyable video, thanks for sharing! Perhaps the Renown just needs a different speaker. Eminence describes the 1518 has having big low-end and mellow top-end. I wonder what a Black Widow would sound like? Looking at the manual's for the Renown and Bandit on Peavey's website, the Renown has an active tone circuit (meaning flat is with everything at noon) while the Bandit has a passive tone stack (most likely where Bass and Treble are nearly all boost-only and the Mid is nearly cut-only). The two circuits behave quite differently. That written, I think both sound great. I'm curious how they sound together!

Uuuhhhhh is there something wrong with the reknown? Sounds like that amp needs time on the bench

I prefer the bigger sound of the Renown! Great in the room sound and detail from that Legend speaker

Bandit all the way

Nice Guitar , I have the very same guitar awesome playing as well , many thumbs up :-)

Lovely! Way back when, I didn't care for Ebony fingerboards so I never considered an ES-355. Having owned a few Carvin guitars with Ebony fingerboards, my opinion has changed. I saw this and got excited, but $1300 for an Epiphone scares me as much as current MIM Fender pricing.

My cherry one is on the way! Super stoked!

Nice demo! I desperately want one of these! The price is nothing to sneeze at, but it seems like a smoking deal for what it gives you. Awesome instrument.

Sounds really nice!

i just picked one of these things up from a guitar center except the tolex is black and its a great sounding little amp i got it for 225 bucks u cant beat that

Sounds great! Any plans to do a video on the original crate enclosed Crate IIR we see hiding off to the side?

Great video! Thanks for sharing!! Do you know which coil of the middle pickup is active when it is split? Thanks!

Lol “ go and get one right now” I might just do that. I found one near me for less than $200

Sounds great to me.

This sounds awesome as im a fan of good 90s solid state amps like Peavey and Crate ive never tried Randall as their prices have skyrocketed since dimebag Darrel it seems but im sure they are great i dont like tube amps price or their fragile nature and upkeep costs i llke the plug and go nature of good solid state amps and this sounds great

I like both speakers but i wonder if youve tried a wgs retro 30 in your bandit as this guy on here called Johnny Roggio put one in his bandit and gets the best Van Halen tone from a 112 ive ever heard by doing so if you like that sort of tone,thank you for this video as i own a teal stripe bandit with a scorpion and now i see its not a priority to change out the scorpion as i didnt hear a big difference in sound between the 2 and i love celestion speakers but i think the scorpion held its own pretty well so thank you

Ha! You played Armed and Ready! Great song. Schenker is awesome!

I got my Peavey Bandit back in 1980 when I was 16. It would have been one of the first models and I still have it today. Would never part with it. I love that amp !

now try crate preamp > valve poweramp > Vintage celestions better than CC deville tone

The market for old Crate amps is gonna skyrocket after a few thousand views😊

De cuantos ohms deberian ser las bocinas del gabitene respecto al amplificador. Ya que creo la bocina del amplificador es de 4 ohoms. Espero respuesta. Gracias, saludos desde Monterrey mexico

Another great example of how much speakers matter.

If someone is looking for a Crate amp, he's got them all, stop searching for one! lol :P

Does the 8" speaker turn off when the 2x12 is connected?

Further proof that speakers are by far the most important part of one's tone...
