Information below is from the previous owner. I’ve had it only a few weeks but didn’t need a 5 string on my current show (I’m definitely a 4 string player) so this needs to go somewhere that it will get good use!
This 34in scale 5 string bass was a product of the Peavey Custom shop in the UK, probably built between 1999 and 2002. As can be seen its made of a generous selection of timbers, mostly ash, mahogany and bubinga at a guess, and I think a rosewood fretboard. It's been completely refinished in Tru-Oil, so very maintainable and rather striking in appearance.
The pickups are original, but it is now wired with two volume, one tone and a rotary switch, which gives 3 positions, coils in series, coils in parallel and coil tapped (single coil) so it is much more versatile than the original 2T 2V wiring. Strings are new, control knobs are not standard, and all in all a very pretty and unique instrument.
