I saw that, but I’m willing to take the chance. I make enough trips to GC to just make the return if it’s a screwup.

I called and checked, the bass in the picture is in South Austin and not in Pasadena anymore, they listed a Milestone and used the sunburst Fury pic.

Ah, that’s a shame. Oh well. Thanks for doing the legwork on that, I was just gonna roll up and be disappointed haha!

I called about the Dyna bass at GC even though the net said not available, just in case, and the salesman said Yes, we have it. I had my credit card ready to burn and then he said, Oh sorry, it WAS sold. DARN !!!

Generation 1 TL 5 on Reverb. Listed as mint but look carefully at the photo of the back of the headstock.

The gold on the bridge is showing wear too.

Just traded for this today and I'm so very happy with it....love the looks, the sound, the slim neck and to be honest, is lighter than I expected.
Whammy bar is not original to the bass, just have to order one from Kahler.
1986 Dynabass with Kahler bridge.
This bass was hardly used and it shows, I still have to clean the bridge a bit but it's in terrific condition.

 

[Thundar]

Congrats @Maxdusty !! That is super cool!

 

[bigtone23]

Great bass Maxdusty!
The Kahler takes it nicely over the top as an 80s bass!

Old pic, but I still have this Cirrus from the short lived custom shop with a factory installed Kahler.

Were there any factory installed Kahlers back in the day? I think some of the TL series might have featured a Kaher fixed bridge.

Some of the G&L basses from the early 80's had factory K's installed.

As did Carvin. I should rephrase my question. Did Peavey ever install factory Kahler trems, besides mine?

Yes, it was a extra for the Dynabass.
Dynabass launched winter 1986, Kahler option was added Easter 1987.

Dang - impressive!

 

[kodiakblair]

Dang - impressive!

It would if I'd been correct

Doubled checked, Dynabass and Dynabass with Kahler were both 1985

Sorry folks.
