U.S. Peavey Club

@Thundar is gonna LOVE this...

I actually did a double take when I saw his Dyna...LOL...wondered if it was my OLD bass cause I used to own one just like it...and later had a 2nd Gen Dyna in same color that I sold here on TB Mike, as usual, you know me all too well!
Congrats! @friedlbug You got yourself a killer Dyna!!

As usual reading TB forums and asking questions is a problem *** for my wife.
I wanted a p bass with a j neck, not to expensive but with a good sound.

My fellow TB'er pointed to Peavey Fury. Combing local ads I found 2. I made an offer on a black Fury and didnt get a response. I met with the first owner of the white bass and picked it up with a Peavey Basic 112 amp for $100, it has some fine line cracking in the finish, but sounds great. ( See orginal post).

The black bass was listed for $325, I had offered $250. A day after buying the white bass I get a pm if you pick it up today you can have it for $125!

The black bass has a few dings that fingernail polish will take care of. It also sound very good as is. Maybe a new pickguard in black or tort? I think it will become my test bed for Klein's P pickup with new pots and cap?

Thanks to all for steering me to Peaveys. No more bases for awhile***unless there is another model that pops up.

Can I join the Club now?

Nice pair of Fury's. Welcome to the club!

I just picked this Dyna 5 up in Reverb from a guy in Toledo Ohio. I was hoping it might be one of you, but in any case, I was looking for a decent 5 that wouldn’t break the bank. I hear these can be really good.

Does anyone know the difference between the Milestone USA Custom and the regular Milestone?

I've never heard of a USA Milestone bass, other than the guitar. I'm 99% sure the Milestone bass was only an import. According to the Peavey site, it was only made in Korea.

There was also the milestone guitar, that was basically a sleek and sexy t-60

What makes this 'custom'?
My friend in high school (late 90's) had a USA made Milestone 2. I always thought it was nice.

That was my question.

I wasn't aware there were ever USA milestone basses, thats interesting. Must be exceedingly uncommon.

The second one reads "international series" right on the headstock...

I couldn't read (see) the writing on the headstock!! I am going to message the seller so he/she can update (maybe, frequently they don't) the listing.

I cant find the model. Maybe it wasnt a Milestone... I wish I had my old Monitor magazines....

 

[Thundar]

It looks to me like, on the blue one, that "USA Custom" decal was just kinda added on there later...especially when you blow up the size of the pic on a big monitor

Peavey Dyna-Bass Gray Metallic Bass Guitar USA Kahler Tremolo Original Case,000Used – Excellent

Here's the one I really want! Anyone here use a bass tremolo? I never have, not even sure if I'd know what to do with it...!

I have always wanted to get my hands on a Kahler equipped bass. Not sure I'd use it much, but it would be a riot!

 

[kodiakblair]

That blue Milestone is an Indonesian build.

US Custom logo is BS.
