Peavey rigs, UNITE!

[Bruiser Stone]

I’m bored and wanted to start a thread: how many all Peavey rigs are out there? Basses are a bonus, but I mean mainly head, cabs, combos, pedals, etc. I have this recently acquired Alpha Bass and two 1505 BX Black Widow cabs, along with a Dirty Dog in the pedal chain. I have a fondness for Hartley’s American-made products that I can’t seem to overcome. I spend a lot of business time in the Magnolia State, and maybe that’s why. How about some love for Meridian, Mississippi?

I’ve owned two T-40’s and traded both off for other stuff. It’s not the weight; it’s the flat neck and fretboard that chased me off. They sound amazing. Curious: how much does yours weigh, and what strings are on it?

I've got a fondness for Peavey gear, and have owned plenty of it. The Alphabass is on my list of "some day" purchases, I just need to find one. Here's my current Peavey rig, planning to gig with this later in the month:

If you ever get a chance to grab a TVX 412, do it! Your back might not thank you, but your audience will

I have 2 T40's. Never weighed them but they are "tolerable" I have a couple other basses that are heavier. I typically use D'Addario Pro Steels. The first one I bought was back during the first year they were introduced and the second was one of the "all zero" serial number ones a friend of mine came across. Love 'em.

The white one (1980) was 10.4 lbs, and I kept a heavy set of EB flats on it. The natural one (1982) weighed 11.8 with a set of Everly B-52 rounds. I probably should have kept the white one as it had a little more curvature on the neck, or at least it seemed to. Also with the toaster pickups, it sounded warmer to my ears. Neither neck felt as nice as my P Bass.

My early 90s dream rig realized.

I would like to find a really clean Century head. Not much power, but simple and indestructible. I use an Ampeg SVT PRO 3 with a Peavey 210TX with Eminence Delta speakers. That cab with the Century would be cool!

The ones with the aluminum knobs? I bought a 200 version from a fellow TB’er and it arrived dead as a highway armadillo. An unnamed carrier apparently banged it around in transit, but the guy was great about giving me a refund. It was otherwise in immaculate condition. I really wanted to hear it.

any east end Torontonians/GTA members interested in a Peavey black widow 115 let me know...there is one in a pawnshop near me and has been there for a long while...I'd be happy to have a better look, actually try it out if you live far away...last time I looked they had $350 on the sticker...I'm sure you could could get if for less

My first real bass rig was the PV MegaBass Head, and the 1516 cab, it was a pretty cool rig, wish I still had it.

Not mine, but I have played my Peavey bass through it a few times
It's for sale locally, I'd probably buy it if I had the cash.

Yup, that's the one. Man, too bad the unnamed carrier failed at his/her one job...

A host of Peavey pre's going into a 120/120. Really need to get a good cab hook these bad boys up to.

TNTwins (or TNT wins!). Most modern combos with outrageous power claims simply can't compete in clean volume and lowend authority. Prefer this setup to my SansAmp RBI+Hartke 3500+Peavey cabs (410TVX+115BXBW) rig. Tight 15s is where it's at for me. These are both Scorpions and both have an added cheap piezo horn.
