Would you?

Would you trade a 1996 Ibanez ATK for an early 80’s Peavey T-40? Both in great not mint condition.

 

[Bass V]

nope, but if the ATK is short scale then I'm skunked. sold a (pretty) dog of a T-40 recently.

 

[GIBrat51]

Me? No, I would not. But, only because there are left handed Ibanez ATK basses - but, there are no left handed Peavey T-40s. Much as I would like to have one...

 

[Lowendchamp]

Depends on how heavy that Peavey is! No boat anchors no matter how nice they feel or sound.

If the ATK was a 5, yes. Don't need any more 4s.

 

[MultiScaleMale]

Which one is yours? I really wouldn't want a T-40 if someone gave it to me.

The ATK is mine. It’s hanging on my rotating wall spot and a T40 came up from a random friend and I’m wondering if the values are about the same.

Dude the ATK is the heaviest bass I’ve ever owned.

 

[MultiScaleMale]

It's probably a beneficial trade to you pending condition of each and assuming you doin't have a Prestige model. T-40's seem to be appreciating recently while ATK's are still unknown.

 

[lug]

Yes

 

[deff]

Wow, yes.... Can't believe all the haters here.

 

[lug]

Any people against said trade are bad at math.

 

[creaturegods]

Ah, trick question - there are no pics, so it could never happen, regardless of whether I would or not. Very clever, OP.

 

[Snert]

Can't believe all the haters here.

Huh?

 

[allen_m]

Yes. Absolutely. Without hesitation.

One caveat: If the T-40 is going on the wall, you might want to put another screw in the hanger.

I knew what I meant when I typed that, just didn't manage to get the message across;
yes, I would swap one of my T40s for an ATK 5 string. Probably with some cash as the T40 is worth more today.

 

[Topkat13]

I really don't know. What would you do?

 

[blacktocomm]

Yes.

 

[jd56hawk]

Without a second thought...even if I had to throw in some cash.

This.
