I really can't decide between the two but can only afford one. Both are active but the Curbo only has one pup. I play classic rock, metal, country, blues and P&W. Any TB'ers have any experience with both? I have two SX Jazz copies to fill any gaps the Peavey or Cort can't fill.

Peavey Millenium vs Curbo

I had a Curbow for years, was my main player for a long while. Nice basses, good sound, and pretty versatile. The look of the bass was my only complaint - but it balanced nicely on a strap and had really good accessibility. Just play them both more, if you can, one will jump out at ya.
Is the Millennium a USA or BXP? If USA, then it's a phenomenal bass for sure. Just keep in mind that it's a 35"scale if that matters. But as was already said, play both and see which one you like better. I've never played a Curbow, but I can tell you from experience that my Peavey Millennium is a balls out, kick in the teeth, Geddy Lee Wal emulating, guitar killing, drum overpowering, midrange monster. I love it 
the curbow is an awesome bass, but their circuit boards go bad and you can not get replacements very easily. The peavey would be awesome if it was an AC BXP!
