3D print ? I keep all my truss rod covers in my parts drawer. I hate them ! So inconvenient. That said, I don't want to sell any of mine, but maybe one could be made from heating and plying plastic over an original one, or buy blanks on Ebay (cheap !) and mold it with heat and trim the edges.
I made two rear cavity covers from cardboard, and then put carbon fiber wrap over it. They work perfectly and look great.
I got mine from Frets on the Net. You might need to shape it some to fit a bass neck angle, but it's good quality. I also got him to make a replacement rear cover for my Foundation, so now he has a template to offer those, too.
Awesome !!! I didn't even know that company exists, ATLbassist. I just saved it to my bookmarks.
Last time I handed over parts to Brian in Glasgow, I included TR covers.
His range now includes. T-40 PG. 1st/2nd & 3rd Gen Fury PGs. Axcelerator 4 PG. Patriot PG. Foundation cavity cover plates. Grind plates, Cirrus/Millennium plates and a few others
Think he made templates for every bit of plastic found on my Peaveys. Sadly the TR covers never made the inventory list
Brian was concerned about the bend not being 100% compatible across every model. He also feared my suggestion that customers "soften the TRs with hot water before fitting" would lead to legal writs from snowflakes 
Damn shame, he had £7 down as retail price .
Playing this weekend at the usually camp ground and water park
bringing out the G bass and TVX 412 with a firebass 700
still would love a firebass preamp but
it’s been awhile since I’ve played it out

And another bonus! It has a truss rod cover!!!
Firebass 700 = BEST solid state bass amp ever. So warm sounding and LOUD. Add a tube pre from FOH (Front of House) and you're in tone heaven.
Break a leg, brother !
Also, 412TVX is a beast! The 410TXF (same as a 410TVX but with rat fur) was great, and was about all I could handle moving up stairs by myself. I wanted to try the 412, but the store owner wouldnt order one because 'it's just so damn heavy'.
Have fun playing this weekend. I'll be working overtime $$$
It's funny, because we had a set of those and more SP2G and SP4G than you can shake a Grind bass at. 1x18 and 2x18 subs also. I guess he just had it out for large bass cabinets.
That’s funny that you say the store owner said it’s to heavy to ship
I actually got mine shipped to North Dakota
brought it back into Canada. My dad usually leaves your inside of a trailer and trailer ended up leaking and the cabinet got waterlogged long story short we took off the tall X and to make it even more heavier we decided to put truck bed coating on it weatherproof and acid proof and stupid proof
I just posted an ad that I'm looking to trade my 1987 Peavey Foundation NECK ONLY for a 1987 Peavey Foundation rosewood neck.
For Trade - 1987 Peavey Foundation 4 Maple fretboard neck for Rosewood neck
(or any year from the 80's but I want CHUNKY)

The bass player for Reverend Horton Heat uses a Mesa head with that same Peavey 410 cab. I asked him why he uses it (Not that I was questioning his judgement, but his choice) and he said, "Because they are the BEST 410's out there. They get the best low end."
I wanna play....my 412TVX (and my first Spector Euro5)...there's a T-Max head on top ...still have the 412TVX and the T-Max 
This is true. Back in the 90s, the 410TX was considered (by all the players who listen with their ears) the best value for bass cabs. All cabs were heavy, this one just happened to sound great and was 1/2 the price of a SWR Goliath or Eden cab.
I have owned a couple 210TX cabs over the years. I could pick them up for well under $100 and have a great cab to leave at the practice space. It's the Bandit of bass cabs!
Dang right! In the 90’s I gigged an SWR-400 head with a Peavey 410TX and it sounded awesome! I think I bought the cab, used, for around $150 which was a steal. Later on I “upgraded” to a SWR Goliath 410 and honestly it was an upgrade at all.
I had a 410TX, 210TX, and the T-Max. I traded both of the cabinets in towards the TXF cabinets when they came out. I really liked the front shelf port vs the rear port of thr TX.
It was a nice progression for rigs
Started with a Combo 300
Combo 300 + 410TX
T-Max + 410TX
T-Max + 410TX + 210TX
T-Max + 410TXF
T-Max + 410TXF +210TXF
It took a few years of working really crappy low-paying jobs in high school, but it was a nice stack when it was all said and done. I wish I had played out more back then. I wish I still had the T-Max - well all of it really.

Yeah, I got one of those. Thought about grabbing another and running 8x12's.
