[AlmightyPancake]

It'd an old thread, but new special for MXers...


$330 SHIPPED TO CONTINENTAL US. SHIPS IN PADDED GIG BAG




Alright guys, you've seen it, heard it, wanted it, now buy it. This time it's up for sale-- but only for sale. I want no trades, please. Some info:

Title: Peavey Grind NTB W/ EMG DCs and Active Preamp
Condition: good
Category: Music
Details: Peavey Grind NTB purchased new in 2003. Has slight use, but stock pickups were upgraded to EMG Dual Coils and passive tone replaced with an EMG 2 band preamp. Easily adjustable, low action, great even output, excellent for slap and tap. Fingerstyle sounds very natural in a band situation, as does pick playing. Email at jedurs@wm.edu OR leave a message in this thread.

As for sound clips:

http://www.soundclick.com/jasondurso

"Slap Comp Semifinals vs. Madthumbs" features the bass quite a bit. It has a very punchy clear sound-- comparable to wootens in many ways. It's also in the "Video game...?" As the slap bass in the right ear and also as the solo bass at about the 2:50 mark (it's distorted, and you can really hear how full it is in the midrange with that clip. it sounds great distorted).


Thanks for any interest. I've dealt with a few people on MX before, and many people on here can vouch for my prompt replies, although I've always been admittedly iffy about trades. If you think you have a good trade offer-- preferably for a decent acoustic/electric guitar and/or a good inexpensive 60's japanese-made bass (the ones that go on ebay for like, 80 bucks) or a decent 6er, make me an offer, but I can't guarantee I'll be very happy with a trade.

god i wish i could get this, but im still in debt, and i want a fretless badly. good luck selling it though.

[Tryxx]

At first I thought it was the Scarab and immediatly started thinking, "What do I have to pawn?"

[Sade]

I'll trade you a Zon Hyperbass for it.

Still want no trades?

Done.

[AlmightyPancake]

At first I thought it was the Scarab and immediatly started thinking, "What do I have to pawn?"
I've been using the scarab sooooo much lately. I finally found three amazing tones. One is this p-bass tone... except it's got more balls. P-bass on steroids AND crack. It's my band tone-- then I've got this setting with the P in parallel and the J in series where it sounds like a stingray/flea bass, and then I've got this insane setting that is just perfect piano sound. That sucker is my bass from now on, and is actually the reason I'm selling my peavey.

[Foxfire]

This reminds me, I'm thinking of selling my Curbow.

Schecter Elite 5 = win

Good luck with the sell

[AlmightyPancake]

Oh yes, and I don't mean to fish, but anyone who has heard this bass live, over YIM, or remember it's tone from other recordings can really help me out by giving their feedback-- positive or negative. I'm also happy to do soundclips for anyone-- whether it's direct, processed, etc.

I regret ever considering selling it. :lol:

Wow, AP, that's a nice set bass you're selling there...good price, too. If I like Peavey basses I'd buy it. :p

If it doesn't sell, let me know: I sort of know someone that wants to start playing bass.

OBO, how much is that in USD

[bottlerocket]

[Worrpigs]

ROFL :lol: , best thing ive heard all day.

[AlmightyPancake]

350.




:p


It means "Or Best Offer". Basically, if someone says "I'll give you 350" and someone else says "I'll give oyu 400!" before I agree to the sale, I'll sell to the highest bidder, but the price I'm asking is pretty much set, and I'd usually favor the person who first asked.

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

oh, ****, i suck today...


edit: it is a 4 sting, right?

Nah, sorry man, it's a 4. I love it to death but I sort of want something different.

[sixner]

That is a good price... i'd like it, i love peavey.. i play a peavey now :-D but, i need a 410 then i have to save up $2000+ to go to France over summer... so much for a 6'er
:(
-sixner

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

if that was a five string grind, i would jump on it like a fat panther on a doughnut

[Tryxx]

I just remembered my bass teacher was supposed to buy a 6 string grind from the studio, just to mess with along with his Cirrus. He never mentioned anything about it, I'll try and pass it along to him.

[eguitaranlead]

IBassLikeThis, dont even worry if it is a fiver or not. if i had the money and dint have a bass on its way to me. i would jump all over this bass. i have heard it before directly into his computer and the tone was sex. so i am telling you people now.

IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY THIS THING DONT EVEN THINK. JUST DO!

[eguitaranlead]

YEAH i have finaly reached the 500 mark.

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

i am actually saving up for a used five string cirrus bpx(?) it is at guitar center for 550. should i get that or this? i mean, that one is stock, this one is upgraded. which would be better?

[AlmightyPancake]

^that all comes down to personal preference. Cirrus BXPs are amazing, and if you're set on a fiver, I highly reccomend the one at your shop. However, if the only reason you're buying a fiver is to have a low B, buying this and slapping a B on it would produce a phenomenal sound. If you're-- as I'm guessing- Getting the 5er for metal, the EMGs in this will produce a high-gain sound that will fit the metal music quite nicely. It also does well for Jazz and funk, but, admittedly, it is not the greatest bass to use for punk. It still does punk incredibly well, but it's just not well enough endowed in the clickety treble range, although I'd imagine an amp would fix that.


One quick edit on the condition-- the bridge pickup volume knob for some reason wobbled to the point where i feel as though it may come on. I'll have this fixed before shipping it anywhere, though.

[AlmightyPancake]

Oh yes, and I WILL include stock pickups and pots.

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

I would be playing all styles of music, as my main band is a cover band. My secondary band is a kinda general, we play whatever comes out, kinda jam bandish with some blues and hard rock influances. and my third side band is an acoustic/emo duo type a thing. so yeah, i need an all around good sounding bass.

[AlmightyPancake]

Well, I used this bass for rock, emo, metal, jazz, acoustic music, and even a bit of pop and rap, so I assure you that this abss is very versatile.

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

How thick is the neck? Is it more comparable to a precision or a jazz?

[AlmightyPancake]

It's actually amazingly thin. Much thinner than your average Jazz neck.


This is the only picture I have in my databanks now:

I'll take some better ones with my roommate's digital camera if people show interest.

Do you have any idea how much shipping to the UK would be, or are younot willing to ship that far?

[AlmightyPancake]

I'd ship so long as you paid the costs. If someone can tell me how to find the shipping prices out of the country and what has to be done, I'll give you a quote.

[IPolkaLikeThis!]

Man, i am so tempted, but the jazz neck... i dont like the jazz neck... im sorry

[AlmightyPancake]

Man, i am so tempted, but the jazz neck... i dont like the jazz neck... im sorry
That's fine man, I wouldn't want to push you into anything that wouldn't be right for you.

[AlmightyPancake]

Shameless bump.

[BassiclyLow]

I'm Intersted, NickCaron at Gmail dot com

Man, If i buy this bass that makes 2 I've gotten off this forum, Mx Kicks ***.

350 USD? and if you could calculate Shipping to Canada that would be great too.

[AlmightyPancake]

I need information on how to price shipping to other countries. Someone give me a hand, please.

[Jabawanga]

If you post more pics here I'll make an offer (a serious one). BTW whereabouts do you live? I'm in AZ. Shipping probably won't be bad no matter where you're at as long as you're in the US. And if you have AIM I'd like to chat with you a bit more about the bass if that's alright.

[Radiobass81]

I'm rather interested...

I'll talk to you on IM later.

EDIT:

Jabawanga: His AIM screen name is on his profile. I think it's AlmightyPancakeJ, but don't quote me on that.

[Radiobass81]

Blah, I checked my wallet, and I don't seem to have enough money :upset:...

[AlmightyPancake]

All you international people who want it, contact me on either AIM or through email so that I can get location information on shipping costs.



Radio, perhaps we can work something out. You aim me too, let me know how much you have.

[AlmightyPancake]

International inquirers, get in touch with me with some general information, please.

[Worrpigs]

hey AP, i think you can calculate shipping on like fedex.com or maybe ups.com

[AlmightyPancake]

Thanks man.

[Sade]

I think it's hilarious that this bass, while being a relatively cheaper model, can do absolutly EVERYTHING well and sound amazing in every situation.

[AlmightyPancake]

I think it's hilarious that this bass, while being a relatively cheaper model, can do absolutly EVERYTHING well and sound amazing in every situation.
So do I. It's an amazing bass with the upgrades. However, the electronics came to about 320 bucks, and 600 dollars for a versatile bass is not unheard of.

[AlmightyPancake]

bump to the people who still have yet to contact me.

[AlmightyPancake]

Bump for price change...

360 usd SHIPPED TO CONTINENTAL U.S., and no more than 375 for international shipping.

[pukeboy66]

hmm im acting on impulse but i just emailed my grandma (who is supplying me my cash for my 1-40 ) telling her about your grind so if all goes well i think ill be buying it ... i sent her and email with your email adress so she can contact you or whatever if you see an email adress... logandarlene@hotmail.com then thats her :)

[AlmightyPancake]

It'd an old thread, but new special for MXers...


$330 SHIPPED TO CONTINENTAL US.

[sixner]

I'd like it, as i love peavey's (ive got a millenium bxp 5) but i want a 6'er, and im leaning for a cort.

+ i really need a 410! *i've been waiting MONTHS for the cash for one*
-sixner

[AlmightyPancake]

Final bump... and last chance before I sell it to some music store somewhere.

[AlmightyPancake]

Look guys. This bass... I just don't want it anymore. Someone buy it.

[Abu-Abu]

Wow, I am really considering this, the only problem is I was planning on getting a six string or a Head/Cab combo for a new amp...

Just posting to show you that I am highly considering this.

How low would you go, including shipping, do you think?

[AlmightyPancake]

tbh, this is the lowest i'd go, unless some sort of trade were involved. The bass was 400 new, and the upgrades came to a total of 300 dollars.

[Abu-Abu]

So $330 including shipping is the very least you would go?

Well I'll have to get back to you later this week, I know I am getting some money later this week but not sure how much. I'll have to figure something out though, this bass is looking really nice to me right now.

[NoOsH]

if I by some crazy chance, come across $330 bucks before you sell it i will most definately buy it, i have played one and i loved the feel, also the EMG's just make it that much better.....

[edit] just looking at that bass again, i want it so badly, but their is no way i could come up with the money anytime soon [edit]

[Efrim]

would you consider shipping to Canada at all?

[AlmightyPancake]

If you paid it, then yes.

Be aware that this bass is up for sale on talkbass as well, and so far i've already received trade offers for a few things, among them a couple avatar cabs and an Ibanez sr506 (which I may take).

[Efrim]

well, take those, as I'm not in a position to buy it for a week or two.

Wow... I was just offered a TRB6II

[skingle]

So go for it.

[Abu-Abu]

So go for it.
And if you do, let me know so I don't waste my time trying to scrounge up some money. :lol:

[skingle]

Seriously, even if you don't want one you can sell it for more than that.
