lowregisterhead Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) For sale is a very funky Peavey USA Millennium 5, not to be confused with their Indonesian budget range. A lovely and quite rare thing, and only bought from fellow BC'er finkle at the end of last year, but something almost as shiny has caught my eye, so sadly I have to 'rationalise' my little collection. Complete with fresh batteries and new set of D'Addario EXL170-5s, and a sturdy Peavey fitted case. USA made, specs as follows:[list] [*]Eastern Maple satin finish neck with Pau Ferro fingerboard (15" radius) and graphite reinforcement [*]35" scale with 21 frets [*]Alder body [*]1 x MM style and 1 x Jazz Peavey VFL active pickups [*]Active 18v 3 band preamp with mid sweep control [*]Hipshot low mass tuners [*]Quadra-Just Hipshot bridge with 3 way adjustable saddles [*]Truss rod adjustable by wheel - as for EBMM basses - no allen keys needed [*]Through bridge and through body stringing [*]Graphtech Tusq nut [*]Schaller Straplocks [*]17.5mm string spacing (adjustable) [*]Nut width 1.82" at nut (45.72mm), coming out to 62.21mm at 12th fret, and 68.36mm at 21st fret [*]Nut depth 20.37mm at 1st fret, depth coming out to 22.19mm at 12th fret [*]Weight 9 lbs [/list] NOW TRADED Edited March 22, 2015 by lowregisterhead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The serial number can be confirmed via the Peavey website. I hope that helps. The bass is now for sale on eBay, if you want to discuss it further please PM me.
