Agreed, get the Rogan knob now before the next price hike!
I would move the mid sweep knob (or whatever EQ knob you turn the least) to the presence spot until the replacement comes.

Yep, just the phone....the stage has about an 8"lip that goes around it so I put it in the corner. It was also right next to one of the sub/top FOH stacks. Michael has been at it for a while....and he actually doesn't listen to very much EJ to be honest. More of an SRV guy. After SRV passed the Double Trouble guys (Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton) used to do some touring (after Storyville and Arc Angels) and would pick vocalists and guitarists to play some SRV stuff and some other material as well. I think they selected Michael somewhere around 2000/2001 to handle the guitar work for a summer tour. Pretty cool and it's neat seeing some of the photos of him with the guys back then.That looks and sounds great ! That was with a phone only ? Wow. Great playing, and your guitar player is really good. He obviously likes Eric Johnson
Amazing what a cell phone can do....the sound is good and the video looks good as well.
Nice playing also.

Yep,decided to order the knob,$13 shipped. Not to offend anyone,consider it price gouching?
I have a really nice Indonesian Millennium up for sale or trade. I'd like to move this one so if you want it, make me an offer. I am happy to trade up or down and am interested in US made Peavey basses. I play mostly 5 and 6 but would consider a 4.
For Sale/Trade - Peavey Tiger Eye Millennium AC BXP5

I had some Peavey knobs in my parts stash but they were the wrong ones. Glad you got the right one. I am also very picky and usually want everything to be original but I do change out the knobs on Cirrus/GV basses. I don't care for the originals and use some lined aluminum knobs made by Kilo International.
Pretty standard, after shipping. Usually, the expensive one is the black reverb knob. There is only one, and only on certain amps. The light grey EQ knobs are more plentiful.
Those Rogan amp knobs are much like the metal P knobs on the instruments: unique and only used in the late 70s-mid 80s. Add that most of the amps are still in circulation, you run into a situation of rarity.
I know people that would take a Bandit, that usually sells for $100-125, and strip it for the Scorpion speaker ($65) and the knobs (9x $6=$54) when they would break vs fixing. Pretty lucrative for parts.
I was the winner on the mahogany patriot body auction, and I’m so stoked to have a hog body for the patriot neck I’ve had kicking around for over a year. Fingers crossed they’re a good fit!
Come out and get plugged lol. It’s a kill switch, which is absolutely not something I want/need. It’s a good excuse to do a full rewire with a stereo jack and my fav Bourns pots though (of course with the original caps)
You , me and 99.9% of bass players past & present
The kill switch is very cool if you're playing and need to unplug real quickly without having to touch any knobs. On that bass, it's totally unnecessary, and in the way.
My guitar player has a kill switch button for effect, like that EVH sound, but that's guitar. Just playing Devil's advocate...
Congrats though ! That is a sweet starting point !!

Thanks! I’m so stoked. The patriot is debatably my favorite peavey model, and while my turquoise one is an absolute beast (after a good fret level) I’ve always wanted a mahogany one. Plus the neck I have for it has a very nice feel to it.
I had considered throwing in a bid on that! Glad to know someone here got it!
Congrats man! I'm glad you got it, can't wait to see it back in working order. It looks pretty clean all in all...
...pic of your turquoise one please?
Just got some updated pictures of the “Stealth” Palaedium Andrew Drake is doing for me.
I got it off Reverb as a project and it was pretty beat. He repaired the hacked up fretboard from what looked like a drunken fretless conversion, and installed small mandolin frets. We went with a matte black finish instead of the original bright red.
So far so good…
Edit:
Andrew just sent a picture of the ramp he made out of black rocklite material and also finished in matte black.
