[Fluid Power]

Hey, Gremson forget the boner, I see the "OLD CROW!" You can't hide that either!

Nice PBA! That bass is a bit rare, I saw one this week at the LGS!
How's it sound???

 

[Jason!]

Anyone here have a Classic 400 they're tired of hauling? Looking to buy one.

I'd call it "the deal of a lifetime."

Anyone in this club have experience with a BassPro 500? I just ordered a used one off GC, should be here by Monday or Tuesday. I like all the features and the information I could find online was all really positive but would like some more up to date input if possible. I've owned some Peavey cabs, basses and amps and have always been impressed with them.
I basically needed a backup amp and I figured since I was going to go used might as well go with a brand that can survive anything.
So any input, advice, setting suggestions?

I bought a Pro500 to back up my Mark VIII.
I run it at 2 Ohms in to a 210TVX and a BX115-BW
I like it a ton. Nice 12AX7 tube Pre, 3-band full parametric EQ and a ton of cool features for nominal money. I think it's an underrated amp with a ton of features...and I've never had problem with it.
I tend to run the Pre @ 11 o'clock, Post @ 2 o'clock and mess with the EQ to dial in what I'm looking for. The owner's manual has some EQ setting examples.

Best of luck!

Thanks Ack, I had a MaxBass pre that I ran flat and loved the sound, but with the mid eq on the ProBass I'm guessing that it's got alot more tone versatility.

Just played a 100-ish capacity club with my NS NXT5 and Max 112 II and killed it. Every other bassist on the bill wanted to use it, and they all sounded great.

Here's a great clip of Ben Adey of The Nice Sharp Pencils rockin' a Peavey Tour 700 with a Peavey 410. Killer sound, and a great excuse to post this clip of the UK bass/drum duo.

Listen/watch both tunes. You'll be glad you did.

My new Peavey Vypyr VIP 2. Can I join, even though it's a guitar amp as well as a bass amp?

 

[Dave the Bass]

I love my Pro500....every tone you could ever want is in that eq somewhere.

 

[Nemasis]

I would like to get a number as I use my Peavey VB-3 quite a bit to compete with the Marshal head of my guitar player.

Here's a link to some family photos.

An uncommon Peavey rig.

Modified MAX preamp, IPR-1600 power amp, Pro 410 cab. High volume, good tone, low cash and reliable. Total Peavey.

I love the Pro 410 cab. I've been abusing one for 8 years and I can't kill it. If you ever get a chance to run a stack of two at a time..., and you have the rack rig to do it right.
