    Peavey Blue Marvel for bass?

    I have a chance to buy one of these Peavey Blue Marvel speakers locally and was wondering if it would be fine for bass use in a Hartke 1-15 cab. Specs link My other option is an Eminence Kappa 15".

    Gibson EB-?

    I play a 1965 EB3 occasionally and I've never had an issue with neck dive.

    Gibson EB-?

    Looks like an EB0 (late 60s - early 70s I think) with an extra mudbucker installed at the bridge.

    Bending string for installation?

    Maybe I could add something underneath to make a wider radius on the bend

    Bending string for installation?

    That's a good question. I'll check on that. it'll be at the ball end and I wondered if the extra wrappings there would be a cause for concern.

    Bending string for installation?

    I'm doing a 6-string bass project (octave down guitar kind) and I would like to install a wraparound guitar bridge but I'm wondering if it would be ok to wrap (at the maximum) a .084" E-string around a bridge like that.

    Smaller cloverleaf tuners??

    Only in the US version, which are out of my budget. I'll be fine with the Gotoh. Still pricey but not as bad.

    Smaller cloverleaf tuners??

    I just gave up and ordered Gotoh Res-o-lites in nickel

    Smaller cloverleaf tuners??

    Probably should have specified that I'm looking for nickel finish. Those look good though. I may have to change to chrome.

    Smaller cloverleaf tuners??

    Does anybody make a tuner with smaller cloverleaf handles? Looks like the standard size for the cloverleafs is 39mm but I need something a bit smaller for my project.

    Vintage Japanese Basses - for those who appreciate them

    This was also sold in the 1970s as the Epiphone ET-280 or 1820, depending on the year.
