USA Peavey Millenium 4

TeddyBearLove · #1 03-21-2010, 02:32 PM

I just got this very nice bass in a trade. It took less than 5 minutes of playing to realize two things in particular. These US made Millenniums are some of the best basses to bear the Peavey name. Also, after playing 5 and six string basses for the last twenty years, a 4 string will not suit my needs. This thing sounds good enough for me to play it anyway. But, unfortunately I know that it should be in someone else's hands. The original link is, USA Peavey Millenium 4 FT . On top of sounding like a million bucks, it is in very good condition. The finish definitely, IMHO, gives it a vintage vibe. It is difficult to capture in a photo. But I was pleasantly surprised that it is not just a "plain" white finish. Very nice indeed. There are a few nicks and dings here and there but nothing major at all. I would say it is a 8 out of 10 easy.

Asking price is 460.00 shipped in the US. or perhaps a trade involving a 5 or 6 string bass with at least 17mm string spacing. OBO.

I'm open to offers...but in all honesty, there is a LOT more bass here than the asking price suggests.

So true! These U.S.A. Millenniums are a great bang for the buck!

I JUST received a Millenium last week..

They're on par with my Cirrus basses.

I'd forgotten how good they were.. ideal for the gigs I go DI to the board.

There is no danger here; Bump

If I hadn't just bought one of these, I'd snatch this up in a hot second.

As your very cool avatar would suggest, One good bass deserves another: In a different color.

These really are awesome basses. If it had five strings, I would not part with it. From the looks of it though, I may not part with it after all.

Well if I didn't already own two USA Millenniums, I'd snatch this up as well. Someone needs to buy this, these are extremely underrated instruments!

Oh...and free bump!

I would but my Maple Cirrus is doing a gr8 job and esp since it has the Millenium preamp I am set. My Cirrus now has a familiar Wah sound like an Alembic

With you guys, I'm preaching to the choir...you already know what these are all about. Thanks for singing the praises though.

Bump for an offer.

...just got better.
400.00

Why did I have to open this thread? Just reminds me how much I want that bass (I tried to get it from the previous owner) and also reminds me that I don't have any money.

$400 is a steal and it makes me sick that I can't get it right now!

This sweatheart WILL be mine. Money by this weekend!! I'll PM. Thx Teddy.

MNAirHead · #19 03-31-2010, 12:31 PM

Well worth it.. folks pay $75 just for the preamp on this.

TeddyBearLove · #20 03-31-2010, 04:04 PM

Whoever comes thru with the funds will definitely get a steal of a deal here, and have no regrets.
