    Peavey Grind question

    This is a Peavey Grind listed for sale (on another website) near me. This is the sellers photo. It isn’t normally a bass style I lean towards but for some reason have always liked the Grind design and played one in a store years ago and it left a good impression on me. The body on this one in...

    Peavey… AARRRGHHH!! (electronics issue)

    Took my Grind out of its coffin for the first time in a couple years (see the GlennHughes Ric/P thread). And it sounds great. But…. the volume and tone pots are all scratchy! And in three of four, there’s a sudden change and then no change at all. There’s so much about Peavey gear to like. I...

    EBS Metal drive review

    The EBS multidrive and Metaldrive don't get much exposure on TB. Been meaning to get myself a Multidrive for a while now and then found that Thomann were offering the Metal drive for £55 (GB) - usually retails at £125 ish. I also read one of the few reviews here in TB about the Metal drive being...

    Peavey Grind Owners, I Have A Question!

    I have been wanting to purchase a Peavey Grind Bass ever since the first time I saw and held one. But, the owner of that bass said he had quite a few problems with the electronics and fret sprout. Is this a common thing on these basses? If so are there any years they were manufactured that are...

    Who else likes much narrower string spacing with greater number of strings?

    Just measured - my Peavey Grind 6 is 16mm spacing! I'm surprised! When I play 4 strings I'm very very happy with 19mm spacing. With 5 strings I really like the stingray spec, whatever it is (17? 17.5?) It turns out that I really love 16mm spacing on a 6. I owned other 6 (and non-octave 8!)...

    Got a P, want more grind or clank, get a J?

    Love my P, the low mid hump and that classic P bass tone. However i'm on a quest for less high end roll off, more grind and clearer "piano" like tones. Should i get a J? Will it give me that? Not planning on ever selling the P, but pondering adding a J to the collection Also love Geddy's tone...

    Best old Peavey grind sound.

    In the Peavey bass amps of yesteryear. There was allways a certain grind to be found. Wich worked well on many projects. What Peavey amp has the best grind. And what speaker cabs do you use with that?

    TUBE Ampeg flavor within $$/space constraints?

    Hi Forum! (Long post alert!) I'm a guitarist who has been venturing over to electric bass. I have accumulated 4-5 bass guitars (mostly old USA Peaveys, which I love), a Fender Rumble v3 2x10+1x15 extension, and incidentally some bass friendly guitar amps (or vice versa!, e.g., Traynor YBA-1).

    Peavey Grind 5 with Sims Super Quad pickups

    So I've always loved my Peavey Grind, but recently I've been playing a lot more and realized that when I turned up the tone on my bridge pickup, I got a real nasty hum, like it wasnt grounded. I took it in and found that the wiring was fine, so they added some shielding to the cavity, but that...

    Peavey Grind Upgrades

    Just thought I'd show a couple of things I recently did to my Grind 4. I added EMG active pickups. A DCX in the bridge and a J in the neck. Sounds so much better now compared to the stock pups. I also had some pickup covers made since the EMGs are slightly smaller than the stock pups. I'm...

    Joyo Orange Juice / modern "grind" sound ?

    I found this video while surfing around, and I'm curious now. The sound reminds me of Darkglass a bit, that kind of modern "metal" tone with lots of high mids, grind and clank. Does anyone own this pedal and can tell me if you can really get this kind of tone from it ? Or is it more his bass...

    Peavey NTB Grind vs Washburn T-24?

    Considering one of these as they are both around the same price bracket and have similar features, but I’m wondering which one I should go for? I can’t try any, since they are from online shops, so I’m relying on your expertise (:

    Prototype Peavey Grind

    USA made Peavey Grind?
