    U.S. Peavey Club

    Very nice basses around here - gotta get some pics of mine after I get some work done to her. BTW - to Fury P-style owners, is it possible to remove the pickguard and not have horrible holes left over? What about replacement pickguards that fit?

    Tried to love a P but I just cant!!

    I always hated how Ps sounded, looked and felt. The other day when I was rehearsing with my band, I just picked up a bass that was lying around. It was a cheap Squier P California Series with a thin neck. The band as a whole sounded better and, from my perspective, this was mostly due to the...

    Peavey Fury question

    Probably a dumb question, but how would you tell between a USA made one and a Korean one? I've seen some pics of headstocks bearing "manufactured in the USA" and others with "Fury" in italics written on them.

    Peavey Fury question

    Hey all. I ran into a used (very good condition, but kinda old) Fury. Now, I don't really know anything about the Fury series. This one had: - 34" scale - Maple neck, thin like a Jazzs - P style pickup. - Vol/Tone control. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] Kinda looked like that...

    1-2-4 Not OFPF

    I think what Ron G means is 124 is more comfortable to his left hand. I don't have big hands and while on guitar I have no problems whatsoever, on Bass 124 up to the 5th fret seems more right to me. No stress on the left hand at all.

    Thanks for all the quick replies. We do a bunch of drums+bass moments, and lots of "Open-E-Heavy-as-Hell" moments where having that high E (only available at the 21st fret - I do some harmonic work, but it's an entirely different sound) is a must :) I was thinking about a P/J configuration...

    Hello all. I was wondering... what's the main design feature that lends the Precision bass its tone? I thought it had to do with its pickup position/design... am I right? The reason I'm asking is because I tested a cheap Squier P and liked the way it sounded, however I really dislike...

    Charvel fans: Need help identifying one!

    Thanks a bunch, man, it does look like it, only with the Charvel logo. Also, the edge of the fretboard kinda hangs over the body. ie there's a space between the body and the fretboard at the joint. Is that normal? How about the series? Is it a low-end one? It's going for around $110ish but with...

    CHARVEL Bass owners "show me your Charvels"

    Ugly picture, but the lighting conditions were horrible (and my phone's lens is really messed up). Anybody got an idea of this lil' guy's identity? Notice the non-pointy headstock Sorry for the plug, but this is my thread :ninja: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=703303

    Charvel fans: Need help identifying one!

    Hello. I didn't know where to post something like this, so here it is... I came upon a Charvel bass in a pawn shop. Now, I live in Peru and a) pawnshops are rare b) Finding a Charvel in a pawnshop is even rarer. Now, I played it and it sounded decently, but what I really liked was the feel of...
