I was out this morning and ran by GC to pick up some things for my dad for father's day. I got what I wanted and went to get checked out. Counter kid was about to start ringing me up when I got this sudden urge to look in the bass room, so I pushed my little pile of stuff to the side and said I'd be back in a few minutes.

This is what I found. I picked it up and it felt and played fantastic, and it's loud enough unplugged to practice at home without an amp. Plugged it in and all the controls are in working order, and not enough rash to mention.

The dyna bass was always my favorite peavey and I've been wanting another one for quite some time but the right situation just never came up...until today.

I didn't steal it, but I got it good enough if it does happen to need a little TLC beyond a good cleaning I'll still be OK. If my information is correct it was produced in 1989.

As a seasoned bassist,I still come home to a 82/83 peavey t 20 fretless,the wide classical style neck and natural body fit me excellent,I guess my biggest problem is I hate playing a skinny broomstick width neck and peavey I feel has the most awesome and comfortable neck.props to all that feel the same .

I've always liked the headstock on those babies: well-formed, distinctive (for a Fender knock-off), fairly large, and with string post positions that allow for a very straight inline string pull. Nice. Congrats.
