Previously Owned Gear

Peavey DataBass. I still have it and gig regularly with it. Just had it reconditioned after 23 years. it's gone through 2 speakers- seems like shortly after anyone used my amp and pushed it hard not knowing it's capabilities. I sealed the bottom ports because it whistled out of phase with the speaker. always intended to put a new port but, most gigs, don't matter for there is PA with subs. This is the PERFECT bass monitor, put it next to your drummer and try not to kill them.

G.A.S. List

a nice bow, a nice tube amp, preamp, more, microphones
