King Tut

Dang, blooming autocorrect!!

If they are XM8500’s I think they’re actually better than SM58’s. They reject feedback better and to my ears sound crisper in the upper middle. When I was doing a trio I used them in preference to 58’s, one for my Vox and one in the kick drum. Great little mics!

Ironically I was playing the Red Dragon festival there a couple of months ago. Look Tim, I’m gonna try to avoid ousting it for now, once it’s in the case it’s a two man lift and gonna be a pain in the backside to get posted. If I don’t have any luck I’ll drop you a line.

And where do you live?

Are you in the uk Tim?

I might’ve oiled it. Can’t remember. If it was dry I would have!!

price drop and trades added type bump!

Classic Vibe Mustang in Olympic White. There's a slight imperfection in the body close to the control plate but hard to photograph - I've tried. A previous owner has drilled two holes for a thumb rest. These are covered by the aftermarket mint pick guard. It includes the original tort guard (with extra holes!) It was a bit microphonic when I received it so it went to Andy Viccars for a set up and sort out. He opened out the pickup aperture on the pick guard a bit which sorted the microphonic issue and gave it a good fret dress etc. I have a box so if you want to arrange a courier, I'm happy to box it up. Alternatively you can collect from Milton Keynes or meet me at a railway station on the West Midlands Trains network (within reason!!). Also happy to drive not too long a distance for fuel money. Quite sad to be selling this but I'm finding the neck really narrow and prefer the width on my old Musicmaster, Not really wanting trades but would consider a deal towards a later edition Ashdown ABM head, a Barefaced Super Compact or something 2 x 12ish

After a brief dalliance with valves, I'm moving this on. It was bought as B Stock from one of the big stores during lockdown. It's in pretty much as new condition apart from the slightest nick in the tolex on the top edge just to the right of the 'Peavey' logo. It also has a strip of velcro attached th o the top which should come off pretty easily. Included is a well used but sound flight case. It's not bespoke but the Peavey fits inside well with some room for a small backup amp. It's been gigged twice and I've used it a couple of times at rehearsal. Despite the fact we have roadies, it's just such a ball ache to move about and I've had some back issues so not really wanting to risk it. When I bought the amp, I did some research and read that some of them came out of the factory with an incorrect valve in the preamp. I checked and sure enough my valve was wrong, so i purchased the correct valve (balanced) from a valve supplier in Sheffield. It certainly does the business. Sounds just like a valve amp should with six power valves and a pretty versatile EQ. There's absolutely no way I'm going to post this so it's collection only from Milton Keynes or would be prepared to meet within a reasonable distance for petrol money. More pics available on request. Not really looking for trades but could be tempted to deal if you have a later Ashdown ABM head, Barefaced Super Compact, a 2x12 cab or something Rickenbacker flavoured Here's the specs: Three Band EQ A three band EQ lets you dial in your ideal settings to match your sound. Making this amp highly versatile. Including high and low controls, as well as a mid control that has a four-way midrange selector that will allow you toset the mid-frequency shift at 200, 400, 600 or 800 Hz. Resonance and Presence You'll be able to adjust the dampning factor on this amp with Peavey's patented Resonance and Presence controls. A three-way impedance selector enables you to match the Peavey Tour Vb-2 Bass Amp to any bass speaker. A footswitchable mute/tuner circuit and front-panel effects loop gives you additional flexibility. Specs: 225 watts of all-tube power from six EL34 pentodes Clean and overdrive channels with footswitch selection Custom-designed, oversized power and output transformers Impedance selector switch for 2, 4 and 8 ohm loads to match any bass cabinet Two parallel speaker output jacks Two shielded 12AX7 dual triode preamp tubes Shielded, 12AT7 cathodyne phase splitter for increased power amplifier dynamics Ceramic tube sockets Inputs for passive and active basses Tuner send jack Footswitchable mute/tune switch with flashing LED indicator Bright switch Three-band active EQ with four-position mid-shift switch Front-mounted, series effects loop Resonance and Presence damping controls Balanced, XLR direct output with ground lift and pre/post EQ switch Weight: 54 lbs (24.5 kg)

I don’t think you can, but you can edit the title and add that it’s reduced there!

Mines been gigged quite extensively and bears the scars!!

I’ve got one of these albeit without the special edition neck plate. Same colour, mine’s got the checking too! Great basses, taking mine out for a rehearsal this afternoon! GLWTS
