    Kappalite 3015 into Peavey 115 EX

    Well my bass cab is a 4 ohm Peavey 115 EX rated at 250 watts. There is no horn in this cabinet. The problem is that my Tour 700 head pushes 700 watts into 4 ohm and 500 watts into 8 ohm. So instead of waiting for the speaker to fry some night I am thinking of putting in the Kappalite 3015...

    Small hand(s) friendly bass

    I have small hands and the switch from a Precision neck to a Jazz neck was like night and day. A Jazz style neck works great. My Peavey 34" scale 4-string BXP once set up is comfortable all night long. I am uncomfortable with the 35" scale basses as well. I prefer 4-strings over 5-strings...

    4 strings only?

    Four string basses just fit my hands better so that is what I own. Have fun with whatever you play, Wayne

    (Un)Official Peavey Cirrus BXP Thread

    Well I admire the guys/gals with the USA Cirrus thread but Hey I am a poor boy who after gigging awhile with my Chinese made Peavey Cirrus BXP 4 decided that since we are segregated out from that thread that it is time to start our own. Every gig out I get complimented on my tone and usually...

    Peavey Cirrus BXP for $250...deal?

    I bought a BXP 4 that has replaced my P-Bass as my main bass. After I set up the action with my choice of strings it is sweet. I get a compliment on my tone at every gig. No one knows that mine was made in China. A great bass. Have fun, Wayne

    Anyone have 15" speaker recommendations anyone?

    Peavey Shefield Pro1500+ has a broader freq range than the black widow, costs less and replaced the BW in many of their cabs. When I called Peavey they said they liked the sound better is some of the cabs. Have fun, Wayne

    Low Tension Rounds?

    Rotos or Cleartones or (?) in 40-60-80-100. They are good on the neck and your hands. You can eq your amp for low end. I never had anybody complain about low end using that guage. I play a P-Bass and a Peavey Cirrus. Have fun, Wayne

    Double Bass Cleaning, fixing and setting up free bass

    Well I was just blessed with a new to me bass. A dear friend gave me a Zeta Crossover bass. The bass needs new strings and cleaned up. It has a natural finish and rosewood fingerboard. It does not have the holes for a bout. Since I am new to EUBs I have a few questions. 1)What height...

    Good Basses?

    I just picked up a Peavey Cirrus BXP that plays terrific and sounds good. It is a four string with a 34" scale with a jazz bass type neck feel. I play a wide variety of genres and the bass has worked out well. These are very inexpensive and after a setup with your choice of strings are...

    Which Peavey speaker cab?

    This 115 tvx is a 4 ohm. It had sat in the store for the last few years. It was damaged in the back. A fork lift had punched a hole in the back. I have got it just about back together. I guess if I want the punch do I go for one 410 Tour series or two 210 Tour series cabinets? Thanks for...

    Which Peavey speaker cab?

    I teach at a Peavey dealer and can get Peavey gear for a "healthy" discount. I am going to pick up the Tour 700 head but wonder which cab or cabs to put with it. I play a wide variety of styles from funk, rock, soul, gospel, country etc. I was thinking either one Tour 410 cab or two Tour 210...
