NGD: 1979 Peavey T-60 Vintage Natural

I’ve been wanting one of these for a good year now after I acquired a T-40 bass. I searched and searched, actually went and saw the few available locally, and just couldn’t find one in good enough condition to warrant dropping the cash on. Finally I found one that looked pretty decent on Reverb with the non-blade toaster pickups I desired and original molded case, so I made an offer. It came in yesterday…. I spent the whole day disassembling, cleaning, polishing, wire brushing and reassembling it all up. It’s all stringed, tuned and intonated and it plays like a dream. I couldn’t be happier. It weights a ton, but I don’t mind heavy guitars. In fact, I quite like them. I can’t wait to get this into the studio to practice this weekend!

But then the microtilt won't work.

No way! Hartley Peavey musta been standin’ on his head the day he laid that one out.

It's like that so you can flip your T-60 during the set and the audience will be able to read it! True story!
