Yeah!!!

[ProfGumby]

I was hoping to be first in part 4 with pics of the T 40...but I am second in and the T 40 is not even shipped yet... Lets see some more U.S. Peavey beauties!

I am also afraid my getting the Peavey will spur a rash of US made Peavey purchases from me....

G.A.S. is fun, isn't it?

[dinsdal3]

just picked this up from a fellow TBr. i recently set one up for a friend who found one on CL and immediately fell in love. im a p-bass guy and from what ive been reading on this club, i guess my next one to try is an early fury? sorry for the crappy photos, i did this with my ipad, as my digi camera is kind of dead at the moment. oh and can i get a number please?

I've never taken a picture of the Foundy, that looks better than yours.

Yep. Something about it is just "right", I get the same feeling when I play it for the first time, every time.

Took it on tour, so it's seen the road as well. Never an issue with it and it's always played and sounded great.

You'll pay a premium for one that's not dorked and gig rashed... Foundations and Fury are notoriously abused.

That's the problem. People are wanting a premium for ones that ARE dorked and gig rashed.

I just got a 93 or 94 Fury on ebay a month ago for $96 shipped to me. It needed a new tone pot but other than that and the normal wear and tear, it is in pretty good shape.

Nice score!

BTW, T 40 players, can you tell me what strings you use and why? When I had my first T 40 I changed the strings once, then I put the stock strings back on. All I can remember is the put them on and take them immediately off pair was the coated rortosounds...didn't like them.

I just received the T 40, the exact twin of the one I owned in 1982! It has tapewound strings that are so short the D string slips on the post. And since I would have put new strings on it anyway I am interested in what brands, string gauges model # etc you use and why..

I have a notion to go with Chromes or even half rounds as I think I want to capture some of the zing (rick like tones) one can grab out of a T 40.

BTW, pics on the way so I can jump into the T 40 club and the US Peavey club.

[oldrockerdude]

That's about the price I had been seeing them at a couple of years ago, then all of the sudden, they went up to like $350. That's nuts. Probably all the positive feedback we're giving the USA Peaveys here on TB.

Here is a photo of my T40 from the seller....



It looks as good as it does in the photo! Some minor buckle indents on the back and a funky finish bubble from the pickguard and some minor pick marks on the guard is all I can find that is a "flaw". And the only real age related stuff would be some very slight bubbling of the chrome on the saddles. I tell you this thing looks like it is 2 years old!

All it needs are some new strings as the tapewounds on the bass are cut waaaay too short and the d string pops loose when it feels like it and it needs a good setup.


Can I get a US Peavey Club number please?

[JoshuaTSP]

how much!?
