cameltoe Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I'm in the market for a £200-is pound spare bass, and almost settled myself on a squier vintage modified Jazz. My bandmate today though, gave me a couple of pages from a guitar magazine(not sure which one) where they review the peavey zodiac bxp. The guy reviewing it absolutely loves it, and not only thinks it's great for it's price (£200) but actually great full stop, comparable or better than basses 4 times the price. Anyway, that's the only review I've read of it( bar one guy on harmony central) so wondered if anyone had one and could let me know how good they actually are? In comparison to a squier VMJ would be even better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Hey there i like peavey basses. Another good one is the peavey milenium BXP which i can tell you is pretty great, i don't know about the zodiac but i'm sure it's much of the same thing.

Adrenochrome Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 No review of that model but most Peaveys are outstanding value. Both my main bass and main back-up/practice bass are Peaveys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan_da_man Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I have the Zodiac DE which is like the normal Zodiac but has SD Bassline pups in it. I'm very happy with mine, I'd have it over a Squier Vintage Modified Jazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameltoe Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 I need to see if can find the review online. The guy from the mag couldn't praise it enough. What sold it for me, was him saying he wasn't making any allowances because it's cheap, it really was good full stop. So yeah, looks like that or a Squier VMJ at the moment, although I'm leaning towards the peavey as I already have a Fender. Would like to hear from someone who had one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I had a millenium bxp as my first bass. Loved it but the neck was too thin for me. Now a fender convert. Shame as the bxp had a great sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new2bass Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Here is some reviews: [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Electric+Bass/product/Peavey/Zodiac+BXP/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...Zodiac+BXP/10/1[/url] I was gonna buy that one as my first bass but went for Ibanez instead. Supposed to be a great first bass for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
