    @ikay That's exactly the one I was going to suggest. Besides Scott being a fantastic player he's been refining his short scale needs for years. Now he's decided get them produced means the design is finished. Check his FB page. https://www.facebook.com/shortscalebass/?fref=ts

    Glad to report the Westone Thunder Jet arrived with no dramas by UPS. Due to the expert packing by Dunc they could have drove the van over it and no harm done.

    Got the gorgeous green Westone Thunder Jet from Dunc. Whole deal was an absolute breeze. Bass arrived today wonderfully packed using recycled boxes,great idea. Looking forward to dealing with Dunc again.

    Oh hell that's a pity but on the bright side You've played it for a good while. I love these folk " why a Peavey ? " what was his opinion afterwards ? It was Tim Chapple I gave the heads-up to,forgot he'd just bought a sunburst Foundation from the States. It's grand all the Peavey players I know are still Peavey players. The copy of the Peavey Guitars book arrived today,replacement for the one stolen in Batley, so I bid you adieu and get on with bedtime reading

    Can any shed some light on this bass. An American fella was given it as a present,there's 2 metal pins on the headstock where the logo was and no other markings except " Japan " on the neck plate. [attachment=206410:Japanese bass.jpeg]

    Big Thumbs up to that Mark. I'm still in two minds , some days I prefer the Ferrites others the VFL. But I'm never far from the Peaveys

    Wonder who it was ? Any ideas Mark That's a healthy collection growing in Wolverhampton

    On a brighter note I'm happy to report I had a parcel due to be collected yesterday. It was UPS booked via Interparcel. Late on Sunday fellow BC'er itsmedunc discovered he might not have enough ink to print the labels. I phoned Interparcel first thing Monday,phone was answered right away and after explaining to the lass the circumstance she re-booked collection for this morning. Got an email from Dunc at 10am saying it had been collected. Still haven't received the text alert saying it's been collected but quietly confident for delivery tomorrow. Really hope I don't have to write a retraction tomorrow

    Thanks for the heads-up wotsy. I've past it on to another Peavey fan,3 1/2 Foundations is more than enough for me . Paid £50 for my 5 string Foundation off eBay but felt that guilty I gifted him another £25,just like this it was a helluva bargain.

    Great bass the PB-50,so good I bought 3 of them.

    Is that the basses that look like a Curbow ? Can't tell you anything about them I'm afraid but as I've both the Cort Curbow and the Tanglewood effort I wondered how these fitted in.

    Beauty of a bass. Out of my budget I'm afraid but I've admired Vigier basses since my teens. Good Luck on a sale that's sure to happen fast.

    I joined the ranks of the double P last year,this Mockingbird was on Edinburgh Gumtree priced for a quick sale But I was working in Kent for 2 weeks Didn't look at Gumtree again till the night I travelled home,was amazed it was still there. Was home,had a kip,nipped through to Edinburgh and back for it, all within 12 hours of crossing the border. [attachment=205671:Mockingbird (2).jpg]

    Nice an easy job there Mark You'll have it up and running in no time,I hear you're playing it at a gig next week

    Alice Cooper a few Halloweens back in Edinburgh . Remember it well cause I'd shot a 4" nail through my left index and middle fingers that morning

    Did anybody see the salesman model on eBay this week ? 0000000 serial number, think there was 6 or 8 of them built. The salesreps had them to convince shops to stock the T series. Any way one of those memorabilia shops had T-40 and T-60,split new unplayed,perfect knick cases but the neck needed adjusting. Probably never been touched since it left the factory early 78 Asking price was $1000 an it sold for $1000. Sad eh,to think any old beat to hell Fender will sell for a damn sight more than £647. Glad I never based my retirement plan on selling my Peaveys

    Yupe very nice indeed. Price being itemised is a good idea, Status Hot Wire nylons icing on the cake But I've got to move house end of the year and can only offer GLWTS

    No idea Rob and no photos either. Got it from Monkey Business in Romford around 88. Course they're long gone too.
  22. kodiakblair
    @DorsetBlue Normally I have payment pending until the bass is delivered,always thought it was in case I canceled the order.
  23. kodiakblair
    Ah to be honest Rob the chances of me still having it would be slim to nil. What bothers me most is it's dropped off the map, I asked the owners group a few years back for some info. They knew who had 37 of them but mine was one of the missing ones.
  24. kodiakblair
    What's to be said. The T series were introduced as competition for the other two big players, Hartley Peavey had heard Fender were putting pressure on his dealers " If you don't stock our amplifiers we won't supply you with guitars !! " so the plan was design guitars and basses with more features and lower cost. There was an ad run showing a Strat, Les Paul I think and a T-60. All with their prices showing and just one word " WHY ". The T-60 was at least $100 cheaper Your T-20 dropped the fancy electrics to go head to head with the P bass,a job it does great. 83 Fender Japan and Squier Japan are costing a pretty penny these days,your's is ideal for all those 30-somethings wanting a birth year bass or the discerning type looking for the uncommon look but delivers the goods. There you have my biased view on the T-20

    Doc Stingray & Rob Afraid I've got it worse cause I'd like my JG back. Normally I convince myself I don't mind selling it,other times who the hell am I trying to kid
