Peavey USA Millennium Plus 5er Black. $500

Sign in to disble this ad
This REALLY bums me out. But I need to let her go. One of the finest examples of the Millennium series IMO. This was a regular Millennium 5er when I got it, but I like the features of the Plus series (the strap locks, the Hipshot tuners, and hard case) so I turned it into one! I could not find any record of Peavey shipping a Pearl Black Millennium Plus, only the regular Millenniums. If they did, they don't recall, and I have never seen one. So I swapped the tuners with a different Plus 5er I have, and put the black strap locks like the originals. And I bought a proper case (boy, that was hard to find...). This thing is so mint, it's scary. Not a single flaw, scratch, nick etc. on it. I played it maybe 5 times as a backup to my near-identical twin, minus the color. Really beautiful. It has a pearly black finish when up close, but looks gloss black from a distance. Everything works 100%. As close to new as you'll find. The fretboard is perfect. Low action, has very new Cirrus strings on it. The only "mod" I did was glue the string tree bar screws with glue. Every single Millennium 5er I've had (which is 4 to be precise) had the string tree pop straight off the neck at some point. So when I got this one, I glued the screws in to keep that from happening. Other than that, It has sat in it's case for 6 months since I quit the band scene. I have a full set of large pictures here: https://www.me.com/gallery/#100109

Firm on the price. I feel this is fair for this bass in this condition with a case.

I will ask some flexibility in shipping charges. I'll put $25.00 of my own money into the shipping, so whatever goes over that, I'll ask buyer to pick up. UPS Ground to midwest (I'm in Chicagoland) might get you free shipping. Far west or east coasts might be up to $20 more. We can discuss that via PM if you'd like.

Going on ebay after a day if no one seems interested here.

Sad to see her go.

I think that's because (apparently) Plus models only came with a flame maple top.

Lovely, nonetheless. Black/maple is one of my favorite color combos. And my Mill Plus 5 is one of my two favorite basses!

Ah, that's right. My other Plus is a flame maple. I knew there was something else besides the tuners/case/locks. Thanks for the insight.

I'm unfamiliar with these (in the sense that I have never played one)...what's the scale length and weight?

Don't know weight. Not heavy, not light. Pretty middle of the road. Maybe someone else knows the weight?

My Millennium feels light....don't know the weight....but it's substantially lighter than any of my 7 other basses.

medium light is probably a good description.

My Mill Plus 5 weighs, if I recall correctly, approx 8.6# (digital bathroom scale).
