Questions for users of the Vintage Peavy Series 400 Bass head

[Sergius Durante]

Whilst looking around my local music shops, this little one I never knew existed had two of these bass heads for $170 each. Was in a rush somewhere as it was late so I didn’t have the chance to try em but wanted to ask those have used em on what their opinion on it is.

Its a solid state bass head with a Fuzz Box and usually you would use a foot switch with it.

There were several variations of the 400.
All were near indestructable.
I think that one is 70s/early 80s vintage.
I bet if you offered 250 for both, they'd be happy to have the shelf space back
and you'd have a pair of reliable amps.

For 170 I wouldn’t even breathe before my wallet was out. And I’ve never played through one, I just happen to think they’re the coolest things alive.
