Peavy Classic 400

[RoyalPalmer]

I got one of these in black carpet. I lost the grill; I took it off to show it's amazing insides. I have recently replaced the tubes, yes all 8 of them. I don't have a full bass rig anymore and am finally thinking about selling this beast. Any idea how much I should ask for? I've seen around 750, which is close to what I bought it at 6 years ago, but was curious if their demand is higher as they become harder to come by. Thanks.

Going to be blunt, you're going to take a beating on this one.

A ugly, ugly beating.

Shipping will be killer, and I'm seeing last few month CL ads and Talkbass at $600 taking forever to move, they don't seem to stop getting relisted until they go to $500 or under.

Peavey has terrible resale, always has.

[RoyalPalmer]

Not the worst news. I am going to try on craigslist first because I do not wanna have to ship this. I'd be fine getting 500 for this. Honestly it is a great amp, extremely loud, a tank and head turner. BUT it is so heavy and a pain in the ass sometimes. It is just time to depart so just about anything over 400 will make me happy. 500-700 would be great though.

And where are you located?

[oinkbanana]

i'd hit this @ 600$ (including the shipping to montreal which isn't gonna happen..)

[Zounds Perspex]

I'm thinking $500 is even pushing it without the grill. bummer when you've just retubed it, but so it goes. just hold on to it, dude.

ARE YOU IN TEXAS

[RoyalPalmer]

Sorry I was in class. I am in Arizona. But I may be able to ship as long as cost is paid for or split and the buyer is ok with it.

[theavondon]

Aw. Drat.

[RoyalPalmer]

Are you in that Bad Times band in your signature? If so I could get you guys a show out here and you could go back with a the classic and an awesome night in Phoenix

+1.

On the other hand, I'd totally pay $500 for a classic 400. It's definitely a buyer's market with this beast.

pffffffuuuuuuuuck, that would rule. I am in Bad Times, but, unfortunately, the singer/guitar player lives in Olympia, WA. Buuuuuuuut, other bands....II'm in...exist...but getting to phoenix anytime soon would be difficult.

Ill check this out in a couple months. I will be driving through AZ in February and if its still available I may pick it up.
it would go well with the peavey 3620 I will be trying to pick up in California on my way.

theavondon we got a great DIY wear house venue that has seen the likes of Cold Cave, Iceage and Milk Music lately. Always a great time, always a party and always illegal. Good time. So yeah you should think about it and let me know.

Derelict78 you should check back. February will come very soon.
