Bad points:
1. Weight, it's a hernier with handles, should at least be on castors, but when you look at the speaker it's easy to see why it's heavy - it aint gonna meltdown without a fight.
2. A bit expensive, but hey it's got the grunt and the solidity.
3. Biggest bad point: I didn't have it 30 years ago.

The big thing about this speaker cab is the sound that the Black Widow 1 x 15" speaker grunts out. Its so deep, smooth and makes you want to dance.
It's good for Blues/Country, Rock -with or without slap,and although that's all I've tried so far, I cannot see why it can't handle any genre of music. A 4x10" cab might suit some style better I assume but as a single 15" it is a great speaker.
If it's a 1x15" cab you are after, definitely look at this one! Its a case of simply plugging in the speaker lead and playing through it.
The Black Widow has replaceable parts, is built big. It is a very heavy unit that looks as if it would take a truck to destroy it. NO doubt about this on it is built heavy and to last, or take a lot of use. If you have ever seen a Black Widow you'll know what I mean.
My one and only complaint is weight. IT IS HEAVY!
I'm glad I'm not a roady. The first thing I did when I got it home [after a cuppa tea] was to fit heavy-duty castors on the corner of the cab. I used the ones that can snap out when not needed. It's a pity Peavey didn't do this as standard.
