Hey family. So I'm the guy bidding on the purple Millennium 4 plus on Ebay. It has 5 days to go. I figured I would bid on it now before I forget. So if any of you decide to bid on it we would be bidding against each other and just letting you know FYI. I can't stop any of you from bidding but I really want that bass.

Best of luck to you sir. I was thinking of making an offer on this Dyna-bass if it's available down the road. What do the Peavey acolytes have to say?

Got a 5/16 truss rod tool from Music Go Round that fits the B Ninety. I was shocked that Guitar Center didn't carry any of these truss rod tools for Gibson. You'd think being the largest supplier that they'd have these in stock.

If I can get the neck set up the way I want, I will end up keeping it. The next step will be ordering a set of pickups, Hipshot tuners, and a Babicz bridge. The bass is very light with a flat neck.

I took off the neck and cleaned it up on Wednesday - everything looked good for the most part. One of the stock tuners is on it's way out, the jazz pickup only works on the D and G strings, and the stock bridge has some rust. This could end up being one heck of a cool mild mod project.

Here's a gorgeous claro walnut 4 that just popped up a few hours ago.
Peavey Cirrus 4-string electric bass guitar

I believe that is a wenge top. It is not walnut. Claro walnut Cirrus were also gloss finish. Here is my claro walnut 6 for comparison:

You're correct, Chuck. When I was typing claro walnut my gut was telling me I was wrong, and I completely forgot about wenge. Peavey sure had some beautiful tops. I am so in love with the Cirrus !! I had rehearsal again last night and I always get a joy from my trustee Cirrus. I added the Gotoh drop D tuner so I'm really happy now. The guitar player has to detune for two songs. I just flip a switch. :)

I've been buying parts like tuners and knobs from this business in PA. They ship quickly, have good prices and are great to work with.

Philadelphia Luthier Tools & Supplies Guitar building tools and parts

Also I bought one of these truss rod wrenches off Ebay and it works great on Peavey basses that have a 5/16" truss rod nut. No need to remove tuners to get access with this wrench.

A lot of my luthier tools that I use for refrets and repairs have come from Philadelphia Luthier, great stuff!

Exactly like mine which I got for under 3 but it was an exceptional deal. This one is missing a knob and some rash on the front. Very good otherwise. I'd offer 350 shipped and see if that gets it.

Looks like they're wanting $350 plus shipping. I might pass on this one.

I see where it's missing a knob but I don't see any rash on the front unless your counting that bad light smudge on the top horn. It definitely has some buckle dings on the back.
