PURPOLARIS Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) Hi all, this was my venture into the world of 5 strings which wasn't too bad and I actually enjoyed playing this bass but it's never going to replace my USA Jazz so I've decided to stick to 4 strings for now which means that this will mostly lay about doing nothing . I think it's a Peavey Grind 5 although I'm sure I'll be corrected by someone if it isn't. Here's the official blurb This all neck-though bass resonates like a tuning fork! Get the rich bottom end you deserve with this natural neck-through-body bass crafted from mahogany, maple and Imbuya side wings. A unique "scooped out" area in the lower wing doubles the distance between the strings and the body making it much easier for slap style playing or high-fret access. Features: 35 inch scale 5-string 24 frets Passive humbucking pickups Mahogany neck with maple stringers Imbuya wings Neck-through-body design Scalloped bottom horn [attachment=29898:29072009639.jpg] [attachment=29899:29072009640.jpg] [attachment=29900:29072009642.jpg] [attachment=29901:29072009645.jpg] [attachment=29902:29072009646.jpg] [attachment=29903:29072009648.jpg] These basses are around £330 new, I'm looking for £150 Edited August 1, 2009 by PURPOLARIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with selling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velvetkevorkian Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 I'm not seeing the scalloped treble horn which makes me think this may not be a Grind, possible a C5, as per [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=54538&hl=grind"]this thread?[/url] Whatever it is, these supposedly "low-end" Peaveys are brilliant value for money- I have two of a different (cheaper) model which outplay basses costing several times as much. Excellent B strings too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
