How do you recommend me the Peavey T-40?

[Trauma_Luna]

well my parents told me this morning to find a bass around 250 to 350 price range because of my past birthday, and i found a good T-40 this morning, you know what kind of music i play and that stuff, but how recommendable is this bass? is there any other bass in this price range that you can recommend me?

Never played one but they come highly recommended. You might also try out an Ibanez ATK?

I've played one of the new ones and loved the way it played and sounded. Sort of like a Musicman but to me it sounded a bit more bassy. Playability was excellent, especially for a mass produced instrument. It was well balanced, but a little bit heavy. I really loved it though; almost walked out of the store with it:D

I'm amazed you didn't......and then take it back four days later to trade for something else.... :poke::poke:

woow that sounds awesome, maybe i'd go to GC and try one of these, but your review really convice me

My high school had a T40.

The strings must have been 10 years old but it still had heaps of good tones.

Was really mistreated by lots of kids but always stayed solid.

It was quite heavy as you would have heard. But not too bad, I was pretty weedy as a kid but could handle it fine , so I don't think it that much of an issue

Definitely go and try one. Reviews are personal opinion and I'd definitely like to hear a second opinion on what I thought to be a great bass.

you can get a good tone out of a t-40, you just have to search really hard.

I haven't played a T40, but I have played one of the newer ATK's. I didn't really care for the sound personally but it was a comfortable and well balanced bass.

You won't find anything that will touch at T-40 in your price range unless you get lucky. The ATK is a good choice (I only know it by reputation, unfortunately), also a used G&L Tribute may pop up. Those are the three I'd focus on in your price range.

if I were to look for a modern counterpart to my t40, I'd probably go atk. But if I had to choose between one or the other, t-40, no question.
