    Peavey T-40 price jumping

    I was cruisin' the ebay highway a minute ago and checked up on the T-40 to see what the market was like for them, and I noticed a pretty substantial jump from just months ago. I searched them earlier this year and they were going for $300-$400, but this time I only saw one for less than $500...

    This is a wiring harness from a Peavey T40. All pots worked when disassembled years ago, but the switches were flaky. From what I understand, this is a common issue. $37 27 shipped CONUS priority.

    Peavy T-40 bass vs. Tiny hands

    Hey guys. First time poster. I'm a bassist about to purchase a Peavy T-40 bass. My current bass is a Fender Jaguar shortscale. Reason for shortscale is I have pretty small hands, and rather short arms. I'm wondering what kind of nightmare this is gonna be jumping from a short-scale to the Peavy...

    Say a guy wanted the versatility of a T-40 but didn't want the weight. What light to moderate weight new production instrument would be the one to consider? G&L L2000 perhaps? Or do you go straight to Warmoth, put in a pair of splitable humbuckers and some switches to duplicate the electronic...

    Peavey T-40 Pickup Volume Problem

    So I think I might have a lemon? When I roll back the volume on either from 10 to 9 when both pickups are selected, that pickup essentially is out of the signal.
