I have a peavey bandit 112 and i love the tone of it. Only issue is, i need it louder because my band's drummer plays to loud.
Does peavey make a solid state head along the same lines?
If so, where could i get it and about how much $ would it cost?

Peavey has made MANY MANY solid state amps over the years. Their current thing is "TransTube" solid state which is supposed to be more tube-like than otherwise. I got into tubes over 25 years ago so I'm not "up" on current solid-state offerings. Your best bet is to go on ebay and do a search for "Peavey solid-state amp," and click the "completed auctions" option. That will show you how much used Peavey solid state amps are currrently selling for.

In general, Peavey solid-state stuff goes very cheap. Their tube "Peavey Classic" series is also a great bargain, though tube amps almost always cost considerably more.

I bet you could easily find a used Peavey solid state head for well under $200 US. For example:

Another possiblility is to get an additional speaker cab if you have an existing "additional speaker out" jack.
