Recent update from Reverb........................... [b] Peavey T-60 and T-40[/b] [color=#515251] In the late '70s, Peavey introduced the T-series as its first attempt to break into the guitar and bass market. These instruments were built in Mississippi and included a number of different models of varying size and pickup configurations. The most common models were the dual humbucker T-60 and T-40 bass, which feature particularly thin neck profiles and shoulder-pain-inducing body weight.[/color][color=#515251] The pickups on these guitars absolutely wail, and the thin neck profile makes this a totally suitable metal guitar in addition to other rock styles. In recent years, a new wave of players have uncovered the appeal of these instruments which is definitely starting to drive prices up. A few years ago, T-60s were selling in the range of $300. More recently, we've seen sales topping $700 for specimens in really great condition.[/color]

So let me know what 6-string you'd like to trade! Would prefer something Japanese or Korean, but I'm open minded!

Just bought a Mk 1 USA Fury as well...............

Thanks @kodiakblair. It was dispatched yesterday so about ten days to get to UK. Will post photos when someone answers my support question!

Nice sunfire red T40. Just awaiting delivery of a black, A1 Dyna bass Mk. One, 1987, twin super ferrites, active/passive switch . Not cheap but worth it. See how it compares to the T40 and G bass

Found a new one in Germany! The company found it after they moved premises........................... http://www.station-musicshop.de/epages/64398533.sf/de_DE/?ObjectPath=/Shops/64398533/Products/0003239

Just put a bid on a Dyna bass, A1 supposedly, in excess of $300. Searching for a T20 and T45 but nothing around. I let a T45 go as it got close to $425 so with shipping it would take it to $625.....I can wait but the Dyna has een recommended by an old blues player in the States. Lives in Alabama and worked for Peavey for 30 years. Another T40 at $700........................... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Peavey-T-40-Bass-Black-82/282378589909?_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109&_trkparms=aid%3D555012%26algo%3DPW.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D41375%26meid%3D1137641a8d1a4d03bb6b7c6d0c75913f%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D282376099358

Although A1 condition you can see that a good T40 is now over $700 in the States................................................. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222418309478?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

[quote name='longtimefred' timestamp='1487540474' post='3240683'] Does that mean you gonna let me have a sniff at the white one mate? [/quote] Thinking......................

[quote name='kodiakblair' timestamp='1487542668' post='3240702'] Simple really. One Peavey generally leads to another. Your G-bass lead to white T40 which lead to another T40 and bids on T45 & T20. If you don't count factory fretless,5 & 6 string options and variations like Ferrites to VFL pickups then there's at least 24 Peavey models for you to explore. [/quote] I thought you meant different versions of the T bass!!!

Just found this thread. What a great bunch of members. How is the centre getting along?

Bought another from the States. Shipped from Illinois to my pal in Virginia, then $150 shipping to UK (27lb weight with ohsc and packing) via USPS/Parcelforce. Then a further £50 tax/duty. This purchase only based on a few photos but I have spent about six weeks due diligence and searching out the good ones. My experience tells me that the average sell price in USA is just over $500. Spares are expensive, it cost me $29 for a tone knob. A T40 is worth more in spares than as a complete bass. Am now bidding on a T45 and a T20. The maple one turned out to be in as good if not better condition than my white one. Both 1980 builds. Great sounds/tones and built like tanks. Also trying to source another G bass but there are none around. I would post photos but have no idea how to do it on this site....
