2008escottp Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Just wondering exactly what model of Peavey this is? and how much it would be worth. It looks a bit like the Grind to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HADGE Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 [i]looks a bit like a bxp not sure how much they are worth but i have seen them on ebay around £140-00[/i] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velvetkevorkian Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I have a fretted 5 and a fretless 5 of this model- never managed to pin down the exact model though. It's not a Grind or a Millennium; it might be a DynaBass although I think various models have gone by that name- I think these date from the late 90s/early 2000s. Nice basses for the money IMO- I picked mine up for around £100 each. £140 would be on the high side but not out the question if it's in decent nick.

Vinny Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 That there's an International, I've had the four string in that very colour and am currently making my orange five string keep me in diesel. I bought my black four off the shelf for £170 about 4 years ago but that's around the time they stopped making them. I paid £130 for an immaculate 5er about 2 years ago. I love 'em!!

velvetkevorkian Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) See, I thought that the "International Series" label was just signifying that they were non-US made. I also have a Milestone 3 (jazz style) and that has the International label on it as well as the model name. edit to add: there are also International Series guitars, drumkits etc. Edited November 29, 2011 by velvetkevorkian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2008escottp Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 thanks, looks like quite a nice bass for the money. No idea what it sounds like but looks like it should be much more expensive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought the Dyna was different, so is it a Dyna model then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologise in advance if this has made you sit through Coldplay under duresse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC the only references I could find to DynaBasses online were about the late 80s model(s), which are totally different. The upshot is I haven't a clue, but I agree that they are excellent basses for the money, so that's what counts, innit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simwells Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 My first bass which was a Milestone III also has the International series label on, if you do want to know for definite I'd give Peavey an email. I emailed them a few years back when I bought my Fury I and couldn't find out anything about it and they could still date it by serial and sent me loads of information about it so do seem to be extremely helpful.

[/quote] In that case, these are super-rare, super-sexy, super-sought-after basses and the one at the top of the page is an amazing bargain. In future, can everyone start paying no less than £2500 for them, please? Worth a try, innit? Did I mention I have an orange one? It's not for sale but if this works it might be! Oh, alright, then.
