dan2112 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Up for sale are my two Peavey T-40 basses. *THIS IS NOW SOLD*The first one is a black toaster pickup model. It's in great condition for an old bass with only a few dings on the body.*THIS IS NOW SOLD* [attachment=162260:20140508_140112.jpg] [attachment=162261:20140508_140130.jpg] [attachment=162262:20140508_140138.jpg] The second one is the later model with the blade pickups and a more contoured body. At some point in its life, someone has removed the serial number from this bass. I'm assuming it was a while ago as it's yellowed nicely with age. Also one of the tuning peg screws has been replaced.

Feel free to shoot over any questions or any extra photos. Dan Edited May 9, 2014 by dan2112
cocco Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I have a pair of these too! The blade is my favorite. Couldn't even consider replacing them. Someone's in for a bargain!
dan2112 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Posted May 8, 2014 Thanks lads. I don't really want to sell them but I'm not really playing much now and I can't justify owning both...They really need to be played
IainRoberts Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 These bring back memories! I had a T40, rosewood neck. Amazing basses! They really do deserve more recognition as iconic basses, I can definitely see myself hunting for one again in the future, and I think that is a great price for the blade pickups, don't see many of those! Good luck!
FlatEric Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Sweet. From the pics, they look the business. It would be great if more players just had a go with these - Cocco has one of my old Sunburst Blades and as a big fan of the Forty's, I'm sure he would like to see these go to good homes. Top Basses.
dan2112 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Posted May 9, 2014 The black one is now on its way to Scotland. I'm going to massively regret selling these but they deserve to be played rather than be good looking living room ornaments
Dasantos Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Hi there. Does the sunburst one come with the original hard case by any chance? Cheers
dan2112 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Posted May 16, 2014 Hya mate, it doesn't I'm afraid. [quote name='Dasantos' timestamp='1400085927' post='2450628'] Hi there. Does the sunburst one come with the original hard case by any chance? Cheers [/quote]
alstocko Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 [quote name='dan2112' timestamp='1402055570' post='2469567'] Bump [/quote] What weight is the sunburst model? *starts thinking in tonnes...*
