obbm Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 (edited) I'm in the proces of checking one of these over for another BCer and had a browse through eBay to see what they sell for when I found [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Peavey-T-max-bass-amp-900-watt-Awesome-not-fender_W0QQitemZ200145009099QQihZ010QQcategoryZ58719QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]this[/url]. According to the manual these are 500w max output into 2-ohms and I'm not aware of a more powerful version. Also according to the manual the consumption is 900watts. Is he mixing his input with his output deliberately in order to hype up this modest little gem or can someone put me right?

doctorbass Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I use a T-Max - fantastic amp!! Its output is 500w at 2 ohms, 350w at 4 ohms and 200w at 8 ohms. You are correct - 900w is the power consumption. This 'modest little gem' really doesnt need hyping up in the output stakes!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass_ferret Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 +1 for good amps and yes the op is 500 watts. The seller is obviously one of the missing knobs but it is a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-bitch Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I'm watching this to see if it can be picked up for less than £130. I couldn't be bothered to mention it when I asked him about something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obbm Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 What's the going rate for such a desirable bit of kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-bitch Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 It's only desirable to those in the know Between £120 and £160 is probably about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 And that, my friends, would be a [i]brilliant[/i] bona-fide bang-for-buck bargain. How's that for a spot of early morning alliteration? +1 for a terrific amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerdragon Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Why has he put not Fender in the heading? i know its not, its puzzling me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike257 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 It's a classic ebay trick. Stacks of people will search for Fender/Ampeg/Trace and suchlike... and wouldn't find the peavey. Stick "[i]not Fender/Ampeg/Trace[/i]" in the header, and it'll then be picked up in searches for those names, so the number of people who spot your amp increases instantly!!

joegarcia Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 I had one of these once too. My second (I think) proper rig. Good amp, I paid about £550 I think at the time. Shame the auction ended early. Wonder what it went for. Seem to remember selling mine with a Peavey 410tvx for about £500 2 or 3 years ago. Price seems to have come down quite a bit since.
