new Peavey amp

I drove to my old hometown near Buffalo for Thanksgiving and managed to
survive all the lunatics on the road (although I strained a muscle in my
middle finger).  I visited the music store where I used to hang out with
the idea of trying out a Peavey Bandit II since I'd heard such positive
things about it here, especially from Bob R (and JAZ too, I think). 
They had just sold their last two Bandits the day before, but a Peavey
Studio Pro II 112 had arrived literally minutes before and was still in
the box. I had my Heritage archtop with me and tried it out.  I've known
the store owner for years and he quoted me a price that was below even
the MF price of $319.  Thirty minutes later it was in my car.  I really
liked the sound, and 65 watts (vs. 80/100 for the Bandit) is plenty for
my needs.  I later played through a Bandit that my friend bought for
jazz a few months ago and, while I didn't have 'em side-by-side, I
couldn't really tell much difference.  Maybe someday I might wish I had
more power but so far the Pro is great.  Nice warm sound and plenty of
clean headroom in an inexpensive amp that weighs only 34 lbs.

Thanks Bob!
