    NBD! As Old As Me!

    Both made in the USA in 1980! ( … at opposite ends of the Mississippi River, but it’s a big country) Peavey and I go way back. When I think of what first inspired me to make music, I think of the pointy Peavey logo. When I was in kindergarten and my dad was still alive, he took me out to a...

    Peavey T40 resto question

    Guys, Some time ago, I started to put "build" (or "re-build" - if you will) a natural wood bodied Peavey T40 - from parts bought on Ebay. I've cleaned up the body with a 3M pad and lighter fluid. Now am wondering about my next steps which leads to these questions. #1, Was there a protective...

    What's the deal with the back of this headstock?

    So I'm trying to find a replacement neck for my Peavey T-40 and long story short I found one on AliExpress for really cheap that will hopefully work. The weird thing is that the back of the headstock is hollowed out and from other pictures online it looks like there's some sort of plate that...

    Price of Vintage/Older Peavey Basses

    Recently I've been on the hunt for a Peavey Unity Dyna Bass. It has been like finding a needle in a haystack! I only found 2 and the price for both was north of $800. While searching I found the Dyna model in the $5-$600 range. Another Peavey bank whose price dropped my jaw is the T-40. These...

    NBD - a 1979 Peavey T-40 as a birthday present to myself

    New bass day - I'm sharing my "new-to-me" 1979 Peavey T-40. It came up locally on Craigslist, so I got to try it out, and liked both how it felt and the variety of sounds I could get through it. These Peaveys seem more known these days for some big jumps in price than for who plays them. I...

    Peavey T-40 volume swell

    I recently had my T-40 serviced. The pots were scratchy so they were replaced. Since then I don’t get any volume swell. It’s all or nothing. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. TIA.

    My New (to me) Peavey T-40!

    I posted last week about a T-40 in my local guitar shop and thought I'd give an update. I bought it! Today I polished the frets, cleaned it up a bit and re-strung it Black Beauties. It's not perfect and still needs work but I'm loving it and thought I'd share!

    T-40 Phase Switch Question

    Hey dudes, so I’ve posted before about an issue I have with my T-40, basically the bridge pickup only works with the pickups out of phase, but not in phase. It’s a post-Chip model with the blade humbuckers, so I suspect it’s that stupid dimple on the cover (when I push down reeeaaally hard on...

    Preamp for a T-40

    My Peavey T-40 was my main gigging bass for about 5 years before I got an active jazz 5er. Having that flexibility at my fingertips has made a huge difference in how I play live, and because of that I've been reluctant to use my T-40 recently. I really think that if it had some of the...
