Peavey Basses

[mark beem]

Meanwhile, is there a discernable difference b/t the rosewood and maple necks?

BK

Oops!! Completely overlooked this part.. Yeah, quite a big difference to my ear.. Think I prefer the rosewood over the maple board.. Of course that's 1/2 of the "Golden Combo" right?? Alder + rosewood??

Snake?? On a plane??

No, seriously.. Ummmm no, no snake... Which pic do you see it in??




Edit: If you mean in the pic of the three basses, behind them on the right then no, that's my fireplace...

Damn, i feel stupid...

Dr. PP you might not want to know this, but Chuck's has a new USA Millenium MM/J 5 string with a maple board hanging on the wall right now.....

This thread has inspired me to bring my USA Millenium Standard to practice tonight.

That's cool. I've seen that bad boy a few times. Chuck's air must be really dry because it sure has taken a toll on the ebony alembic fingerboards in there.

At the moment, I am waiting on a trans red flame maple top Cirrus 5 that I scored off a guy who tried to sell it on Ebay. Rwood board. Listed high, didn't sell, made him an offer and he took it--$750 shipped! Did I mention that the bass has only been played 5-10 times and still has tags, case candy, and plastic on the back? Guy bought it new as a back up to his Roscoe and never used it...
