Peavey T-40 bass

Vern0218 · 01-05-2005, 04:23 PM

I have an old Peavey T-40 Bass and need to replace the pickup rings.
I can not find them. Can someone give me a suggestion?
Thanks
Vern

You're best chance is to contact Peavey. Their customer support team will resoon soon...ish. Took about a week for them to respond to me. They are very helpful, and sometimes carry older parts.

Them T-40's in nice, huh? Got me one in me baaaarn...

If they don't have them and you're handy, you can make them out of wood.

They're not a standard size.

call peavey or shoot them an email. They are extremely helpful with this sorta thing. Order the truss rod tool also while your at it, if you dont have one already.

i saw a t-40 once, natural finish, for 354 canadian, i almost bought it, i didnt because i felt i wouldnt need a fourth bass at the time

i love t40's!

unfortunatly,i dont think peavey will be able to help. i was looking for n.o.s. machine heads for my t-60 and they didnt have any.

ive seen t-20's and t-40's for CHEAP on ebay...... ive been SO freaking close to buying one... but i really want a 6 string... so, i've held back... as soon as i can afford one though, that might be my next bass (AFter a 6'er)

it's insane how much they go for there, and there's like an endless supply too.

trumpeter · 01-24-2006, 01:57 PM

I love the t40s, I played one in an antique shop, next day it was gone

01-24-2006, 02:01 PM

i have the opportunity to buy a fretless one right now, should I?

sorry for the triple postage

sixner · 01-24-2006, 02:03 PM

Wow this thread was over a year old

Ok, ive never understood this. A thread is old, and then is bumped back up to the top, and good discussion starts up again. So why is it closed? It is helping people out and I don't see why it needs to be closed.
