Yes, it still has the photo paper. Linden has a very pale boring grain which does not lend itself to burst finishes. Why do you say 21st Plankspanker when it has just 20 frets ?

There is an affordable alternative. A friend of mine would search local classifieds for Peavey Milestone basses, the maple fretboard model for preference. He would fit the Milestone necks to sick Peaveys 🙂 The slender jazz style necks of the Milestones work well on T-40s. Some may think the...

This is quite important. Set up procedure for T-40s differ from most basses. 1. Neck relief. The truss rod should only be used to set neck relief. It has a very basic design and incorrect use can cause "ski lift" around the 18th fret. You will need a Gibson hex tool or the Groove Tech 14 in 1...

I replied to a request in the classifieds. The English Brexit debacle caused a few problems. First courier prices went through the roof, 90 € !! I advise the buyer that we should wait a few weeks until things settled down, it changed to € 30 soon enough. Unfortunately the buyer had VAT charges...

Peavey serial numbers are available from a few sources online but they only reach 1995, the following years were lost in a system update. The fretless was launched in 1982 but probably retired around 1985/86. T-40 production continued at a reduced rate until 1988. I'll be honest, I have no...

@ Basstier88 Congratulations on your T-40. It's from 1982 which was the year Peavey launched the fretless model so your's is an original : great: 5 piece bodies are quite common, I think 3 of my T-40s were 5 piece. The split is unlikely to grow, after nearly 40 years the timber has long...

The replacement Harley Benton pickguards are just generic items sold under the HB logo, they are not the same pickguards used when constructing the basses.

It sounds exactly like a tele bass 🙂 I used roasted obeche for the body. A very light material made lighter, I suspect, by the roasting / torrefy process. Completed bass weighs less than 3 Kg To counter any potential neck dive I decided on a headless design. I may have made the right decision...

I'm not much of ZZ Top fan, same cannot be said for 51 / Tele basses 🙂 These are mine. Some modded PB-50s, a couple of Fenders and self builds.

No problem, use a skin. https://axedecals.com/. Custom designs cost the same as stock prints. Some folk may view guitar skins as inferior or cheating. These fellas don't seem to care, John Bolin used skins on both custom builds: great:

@Mobbelsche JB-75 PG was handed over at 1530 hrs. When I mentioned to Brian about left hand versions he just smiled and said it was not a problem : great:

That did not take long. I will be collecting a JB-75 on Friday, PG should be available by 1st week in April 🙂

[USER = 80352] @Geosammler [/ USER] [USER = 78057] @Mobbelsche [/ USER] Well folks, I've checked the fella in Glasgow's inventory. He does short scale PB-20, RB-414, MB-5, PB-50 (Roswell and Wilkinson). He also has the standard / stain black PB-20 plates. No JB-75 PG at the moment. I.'ve been...

@Mobbelsche I think the parts seller in Glasgow may have the JB plates. I'll post a link when I get home from work.

My apologises for the misunderstanding. I happened upon Lourerio the same way as @StonerGreg, an internet search. In my case I followed a link to eBay. With regards to communication, sadly my experience my experience was much the same. We exchanged a few messages via eBay then a lovely wee...

Thanks @Bassmanische Beutelratte I was referring to the series :-)

@StonerGreg That is a fine looking 51. Good choice going with the Lourerio split single, they are great sounding pickups.

Have they got the numerals back to front, never heard of a Passion VI. https://www.brocnrollmusic.com/prestashop/basses/745-vigier-passion-vi.html

Similar findings in the UK. Blind test 5 years back saw Encore and Gear 4 Music P-basses preferred over 1957 and 1966 Fenders : D
