    Peavey T-40 find. Will help if needed

    Found this on my local Kijiji. If anyone is looking for a T-40 seems like good deal. I don't need it as I already have one. Link Removed I'll lend a hand with viewing & shipping details if needed.

    Peavey Impresses big time

    I'll try to make this as quick and painless as possible.. I bought an old Peavey 1516 cab that was pooched. Took it apart with the intention of reloading it and found the 76uF cap was fried. I looked online and couldn't find a proper replacement. On a whim I emailed Peavey and they (a)...

    Gauss 5842 for a cab?

    I was given a custom built speaker enclosure by a relative who had no time or use for it. He said it had a speaker in it, but didn't know what it was or if it worked. Last night I took the enclosure apart and found a Gauss 5842 that wasn't hooked up to the cab. The enclosure measures 14 X...

    Foundation S eck warp

    With a gig one week away I decided to do setups on my stage basses. I started with my 'ol faithful, a 1989 Peavey Foundation S that I have had since 1991. upon removing the neck to do some cleaning, tuner maintenance and so on I found the neck is warped. Not really bad, but bad enough it...

    Fender 200 Tube Question

    I just picked up a Studio 200 in nice shape. It still has the original Fender Tubes in it and one of them only lights up when I hold it tight to the socket with my finger. I've swapped it in another socket to check and it's the tube not the socket. What's the consensus about replacing the...

    A lesson for the elitists:

    *Disclaimer* I don't think TB is full of elitists, but for those who know a few, this is for them who think that newbies should stick to lessons and not taint the 'professional' talent pool: Victor just got cooler to me.

    Wow, not my cup of tea but really... Original..

    Trolling Kijiji (Canadian version of Craigslist) and found this: Link Removed Definitely not my thing but that would take a lot of work to build. I'll say it before anyone else does. Probably good for metal..

    To those who sell your gear

    I have spent the last couple of hours trolling for gear on Kijiji. The pickins are pretty good out there right now but I have one little rant to vent. CLEAN YOUR GEAR BEFORE YOU LIST IT. I saw a Fender Bassman that has rust on the transformers. Dude wants $400, I'm lowballing him at $200...

    I can't believe I have to vent..

    I usually don't fall victim to this and am more often than not the guy giving the advice to just move along. But yet, here I am... I have just joined an originals band. They have some good, quality music that I think with some polish and hard work has a good shot. They also play cover...

    Stop me before I do something very very bad

    I know I'm probably pitching this to the wrong crowd but maybe a voice of reason will bring me to my senses. Every Friday I take my daughter to guitar lessons. Every Friday, I see an Ampeg SVT-CL with an 810 under it and close by an Ernie Ball Music Man. The Ampeg has been there a while...

    What to mod first on squier P

    Not that I feel I need to, but I bought it on the cheap and I want to have some fun. It's a '94, black with white pickguard. Suggestions?

    Squiers. I kinda get it now...

    With a little time to kill before work today I thought I would re-string my Squier MB-5 and give it a little TLC. Removed strings, put a little wax on the body and thought I'd pull off the knobs to get underneath. A gentle tug on the volume knob and I feel the pot pull apart. Bollocks. I...

    Held a Ric today

    Browsing a new boutique guitar shop today and saw a 4003 behind the counter. Upon asking the price and nearly passing out at the $2250 price tag they said "wanna try it out?" I balked at first but then said to myself, why not.. I don't hold my newborn child as gingerly. I plugged into a...

    Way Huge Fail

    After hearing good things about the Way Huge pedals, I decided to head to my local shops to give a few a try and more than likely, take one home. Uh, yeah.. Not even the shop that lists Way Huge as one of it's lines had more than one pedal. After going to the three biggest shops in...

    Opinions on Peavey Firebass 700

    Just found one with a cabinet for a decent price. Who's got one / had one and your thoughts on them? I searched Harmony Central and the consensus is generally good, but I'm always interested in opinions...
