SOLD 09/23! This bass is a refinement of all that is good about Peavey basses from the Golden Age of USA production. It's not way out there in terms of unnecessary gimmicks or design tweaks but rather, was conceived with the player in mind. It's got an alder body with a beautiful, deep cobalt blue metallic finish. The maple neck has a pao ferro fretboard and features graphite laminates for improved stability and sustain. The 18-volt preamp can be as refined as you want but can be set to a virtual"11" if you want to take it to the Max. The bass is in almost new condition with the original owner's manual. Weighs in at under 9 1/4 lbs and as you can see, includes the deluxe original hard case.
