No fair, you could change things...

haha!
..or at least nudge some stuff in a more sensible direction.

Being broke sucks, being 21 hmmm, I'd do it again!

You should see if you can make up a payment plan. There are some resources for that...like 'affirm' on reverb.

Beauty bass!

21 is the new 17.

actually 18! where I’m from

Any sound clips of this? I own a Peavey Tele Copy and Benedict (botique) that both have piezo bridges... am interested

Is this the G-Bass converted to fretless? Sounds great. You mentioned having 2 G-Bass necks, I know that the original one on that bass was a single action truss rod, what about the other?
I am tryint to track down the idiosyncrasies of Peavey basses from that era. For example single action truss rods where they should have dual actions. Or pickups with the same form factor, but are actually different on the inside.
Again, I don't want to kill a thread but does someone has B-Quad 4, B-Quad 5, Axcelerator 4, Axcelerator 5, Cirrus 4 pickups to compare? (They are all the same form factor)
Thanks.

Yes, it's the fretless G Bass. I'll ask the luthier who did the defret and setup if he noticed if the truss rod was two way or one.

Somebody got a deal. I just checked GC used Peavey basses and there was a USA Millennium 4 for $209 listed as a BXP. I put it in my cart and it was already gone. LOL

The early bird gets the Millennium!

Someone got VERY lucky, that looks like a nice plus with birdseye maple.
They also have a "1970s 120" listed, which I can only assume is a T-20, which then in turn cannot be from the 70s... [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

I can't help with the GV, but my $15 caliper, which only has two decimal places, says the G Bass nut is:
1.5" × .13"
I'd round that thickness to 1/8"

I have a cheap digital caliper as well. I'm getting 1.81" x .13" and 1.79" x .13" on my two millennium 5ers.
So roughly 46mm x 3.3mm.

Been out painting a fence all day, could have made as much buying and selling that bass!
GC also quickly moved a black Foundation S and a "1970's" 120 bass today.

Double post with the USA peavey club but

put in the “custom audere”
3 band but asked for mid a lower frequency
I guess 250?
Based on the switchable one?

great preamp I have one in my atelier z
But definitely not bonding with it and the GV

sound clips to come

So, do any of you own a 3D printer, and / or machine equipment to make aluminum string trees ??
This is INSANE - a Peavey truss rod cover for $99 bucks and a triangle string tree for $199 bucks. I have both and am willing to send you the truss rod cover to make 3D copies and string trees. That way we can supply the club with truss rod covers at cost plus a small fee for doing it. Even if one of you said $30 shipped for a new truss rod cover, it's still 60% less than this guy...
