Peavey T-40 Bass - Vintage American-made Coolness
guitarz.blogspot.com:
In more recent times you could pick up one of these all American-made high quality 1970s Peavey guitars or basses for a mere song. I mean why buy a Squier if you can get something as well-made and playable as this, often for less cash, and with that coolness factor that it's a little bit different from what everyone else is playing, a little bit retro.
I mean, this
Peavey T-40 is an absolute beaut... with a volume and tone for each of the two pickups, you're not going to get the same variety of sounds out of a bog-standard P or J Bass.
But I think maybe the tide has turned, and with a Buy It Now price of US $599.99 this bass is priced a little higher than most I've seen over the past few years, and to be honest it's a much more realistic price for an instrument of this quality. Grab them while you can and as cheaply as you can because I predict these will be fetching a lot more money in years to come.

guitarz.blogspot.com: This 2002 Rickenbacker 4003S8 8-string bass is quite scrumptious. What would you call that finish? It looks like Fender's Aztec Gold but what is that in Rickenbacker-speak? Aztecglo? However, bearing in mind the eBay seller...

Gibson Explorer Shadow Bass From 1986 - But Where Are The Pickups?
guitarz.blogspot.com: Graphics like these appeared on a number of mid-1980s Gibson Explorer guitars and basses, but more unusually this 1986 Gibson Explorer Shadow Bass appears to have no pickups. Of course, it does have pickups but not of the magnetic...

Peavey Mantis, Another Pointy 1980s Made In The Usa Guitar From Peavey
guitarz.blogspot.com: A few days ago we looked at a Peavey Razer from 1983, which drew mixed comments from Guitarz readers. The only real criticism that made sense to me was that the shape lacked forearm support for the picking hand. Now that isn't...

Peavey T-40. An All American Classic.
Peavey T-40. Made in USA. One of my all time favourites, something a little different. The pics are for one that I no longer have and were taken for the guy who now has it. I sold this one after owning it for just over a year, to fund the Red one....
