18" is uncommon but not unheard of. I once demoed a 21" driver using my CMI SuperBass-style head and that pushed the shop windows out. Not my thing, but impressive.
Shake, I forgot to ask; does your brother use pick on bass much? I know Tim and I do, and the Peavey driver (especially the Black Widows) really react badly to it. I recently worked on a song with the guitarist and my bassline was very reminiscent of "Breathe" on Dark Side. Using my usual valve amps, my (not usual) vintage 2x12" and (importantly) almost no attack from a soft-part of thumb near the neck playing style, the tone was very Watersy.
