The universal cases often do... Peavey had a few different private labelled for the Cirrus/Millenium/Gbass (probably a few others). I know of at least 3 different branded cases for the "long horn" design.

So why don't ya just name the 3 brands so he can maybe source one ?
Or is that secret insider knowledge. lol
That depends entirely on Peavey.
If they want their name on a quality product, they'll set a proper budget.
If they don't give a monkey's and just want maximum profit, they'll set the budget at peanuts.
Products originating from certain countries get a bad rep yet that rep is the result of a corporate decision
In the past corporate Peavey were pretty good, nobody grouches about their Sarzo Cirrus coming out of China or Indonesia
Word brother! We'll see what happens... meanwhile why are they re-releasing them in the first place? How long were they used I figured the T series and a little beyond...?
Thanks for your knowledge and your perspective!
SKB was one name. Peavey cases for my B-Quad, Cirrus and Millennium US were all made by SKB.
It's the dumbest Peavey rumour I've heard
I only remember those knobs being used on T-Series, very early Foundations and 1st Gen Fury; guitar side of things it was T-series, Horizon, Mystic, and Razer. Speed knobs started appearing in 1984. There's a very limited market for P-knobs, they were deigned for solid shaft so many folks would be looking at pot swaps just to use them.
Aye, dumb idea
I've seen folks update the speed knob versions with the P knobs due to the coolness factor.SKB was one name. Peavey cases for my B-Quad, Cirrus and Millennium US were all made by SKB.

I did not know a pot swap was needed. That's interesting.
The basses I had with speed knobs all had split spline shafts.
I daresay you could jack the grub screw in tight but missing P-knobs is a common enough sight with basses they were designed for so good luck getting them to stay on basses with different pot shafts.
Just random musing from one who will not be buying them, even if $1.98 from Temu
sure... peavey, peavey and universal LOL
I never cared enough to figure out who made them... Kodiak is smarter
The original Peavey logo hard case that came with my US Cirrus actually closely resembles the TKL case that I purchased for my Cirrus BXP. If it’s an SKB, I have never seen one from SKB that looks like it. The Peavey case that came with my Dyna Bass… and the one that came with my US Millenium Plus both looked like the SKB economy cases. I can confirm that the Gator TSA case fits my US Cirrus fiver very well.

Not sure if this is prevalent at all but the Gator TSA case will hold various styles of basses. They occasionally pop up at discount on reverb...
Cheers!
Cheers!
Great basses!
Guilty as charged. It's my favorite knob. Have used those brass adapters that slide on the pot shaft for use with set screw knobs. If the bass needed new pots, it got solid shaft. Here's three that I still have that went from speed knobs to P, and one that is Peavey in spirit.
If your tuners have threaded bushings, the Fender Stealth string tree is my go-to. It just replaces the washer. I have one on several of my basses.
Got an unexpected message earlier.
Fella in Norway has a blue Resolite
Strange thing is DeCola said he only built 4 for the NAMM, Musik Messe trade shows.
Mech's boss, John Fields, has one, Mech's former band mate John Faro has another; I own the black one so this would make the fourth.
Norwegian fella told me when he got his the store also had one in candy apple red, that'd make 5.
There must be at least 6 of them, John Fields told me of a work colleague who, when he jumped ship to Acoustic, spirited one out the factory.
Why is the story never straight with Peavey

Resolites are a passive PJ, like the B-90, early Forum, or the Unity. 2+2 peghead used the pattern from the, very short lived, RJ-B; 'B' stood for basic.
well punk slap me if I say I've owned all of the americans.... who thunk.
I do not remember the rep saying anything about this... guess I was too busy trying to figure out how to meet Mr Vandenburg.
