  3. Hi there folks, having to shift a bass to balance purchases and justify them to my girlfriend

    Bought this off funkle last year:

    Peavey G-bass,
    Carbon fibre composite neck, 35" scale, thin and very playable
    Peavey active humbucker and 18V 3-band EQ
    Gotoh Bridge
    Red sparkle finish (doesnt show well in pics, no were near that orange, I will get some better pics soon)
    Peavey hard case
    [b]US made, pretty rare, no longer manufactured[/b]

    Damage. dint in front is were piezo control was installed and then removed, there is a small empty cavity in the back were the piezo pup was, these don't affect the bass at all other than aesthetics but do leave it open for re-modding and putting a piezo in.

    nice bass, does and awesome super Pbass style and a Flea/Stingray ish tone with a little coaxing, the pup is further neckwards than the latter giving a different tone

    [b]more pics further down thread, give better idea of colour[/b]

    actually this colour:



    looking for what i paid: [b]£200[/b]

  4. pm'd an emailed, I spend ages waiting for interest and now I have lots, woohoo

    for everyones info, I'd be wanting around £220 for this bass carefully boxed and posted with the straplocks and spare strings.

  5. [quote name='Alastair' post='253160' date='Aug 2 2008, 09:53 AM']You can get even tension across strings on a normal bass by choosing the right gauges though.

    Anyway, all this fanned fret business makes my head spin. :)[/quote]

    you in glasvegas...wanna try a Dingwall? It aint as hard to play with fanned frets as you think.

  6. [quote name='bnt' post='252441' date='Jul 31 2008, 11:44 PM']I wonder about the effect of the right hand position on tone.[/quote]

    to get a totally even tone you pretty much have to play diagonal, roughly following th line of the pickups. I have found thought playing straight down as you woul on a non fanned works well giving more bite to the G and C especially becoause you end up playing closer to the bridge.

  7. Posting would be involved but would a peavey G-Bass tickle your fancy, it isnt aesthetically perfect cause the previous owner tried to mod it but the playability is perfect, 35" carbon fibre neck, red sparkle finish and 18V three band Peavey electronics. these are pretty rare as they arent made any more, kinda like a Peavey Flea bass but the p'up is more of a precision placement

    ooo and a hard case
