Does anyone know the scale length of the Indonesian Millennium BXP5 string?

I bought this one and think it is 34" and hope it is 35". It should be a pretty good bass for the $$

I believe the last one I touched was a 34, but I can’t say I put a ruler on it.

I have not had my hands on one. Most of the Indonesian basses are well made so I have high hopes for it.

Peavey Millennium 5 BXP Features:

• Tiger Eye
• 34-inch scale
• 5-string
• Hard rock maple neck with rosewood fretboard
• Basswood body with quilt top
• String-thru-body
• Two J-style, single-coil pickups

Thanks but the one I bought has humbuckers that look like the ones used in Cirrus basses and 3 band active electronics.

Decided to pull my T-40 out for some late night 2:30 am jams. I worked a 10 hour shift and hit the gym before this. Im dragging at this point. I love this T-40, such character. Jammed out to some Guns N' Roses, anything goes.

I own the 4 string model. It's 34" scale, of course. Fiver's, I don't know. It has the Cirrus pickups and same preamp layout. I've never opened the back to look, curiously, so I don't know what preamp it has. It's dead silent and the best $149 bucks I've spent.

There must be an island somewhere in the Pacific made up entirely of missing truss rod covers.

i wish 3 of them would wash up in my yard!
I have a couple homemade ones that are a little rough if you look at them closely.

It's a pity the Glasgow fella never went ahead with TR covers, size/bevel/shape were all bang on.

Said the problem was the curve. If it wasn't a perfect fit right out the bag , across every Peavey made over a 17 year period , folk would return them. I'd thought folk would have the gumption to soften the covers with hot water before fitting.

Brian assured me this was not the case

Couldn't resist. Love the blue and told myself that if a blue Foundation, Fury, or Patriot popped up for a good price, I'd have to snag it. Blue w/ the maple is just perfect color combo to my eyes. And with the original case, seemed like a fair deal to me, especially given the prices some have sold for lately. My Peavey family is growing (two '87 Foundations and one '92 Fury already)! I would like to add a Patriot to the collection some time as well.

@JTbass44 Nice score! Congrats! BTW, that white Foundation is killer!

Thanks. Got that locally from a guy on CL and it is in great condition. Still has the film on the back access cover. Usually not a fan of matching headstocks but this one continues to grow on me every day and I really love it now.

Yes, I saw that one and does seem nice and a fair price. Don't think the wife would approve of yet ANOTHER! Ha. Too many as it is. On top of the Peavey's, I have two USA G&L's (L-2000 and SB-2T), a 5er Ibanez BTB, and an older Ibanez EX 404 that I got for super cheap (less than $100).

I believe that pickguard is one of these:

parchment/black/parchment
