Who likes dem old peaveys?

Post by lapsteel »

I got my eyes on an immaculate peavey combo 300, with 15" black widow speaker. $100. I have briefly tried out the latter tnt series and it was a blast...but this dinosaur might take the cake.

Anyone got an idea of how versatile this is with bass, guitar, keys, drone machines?

I love my 1975 Peavey bass setup; the 215 uses Black Widows too. Gotta turn up the treblies for guitar use but it sounds good to me.

rocked a peavey century bass head through an ampeg 8x10 all through college... loud, clean, and built like a tank.

buddy of mine had a classic 30 4x10, really dug that guy and would probably have one myself if i had the space / time to play it.

I like old peaveys, they're solid and sound pretty decent. Used to use this huge old combo for bass and that thing fuckin ripped.

I used to play with a bassist who had an old Peavey head. We all thought it was junk, but honestly it always sounded good. No clue what kind it was though. :idk:

This one isn't mine, but it's similar. HUGE PICTURE!

I got this at GC last month. It was listed as Classic 50, but I noticed the 4 6l6s, so I opened it up and all the pots dated it to '72.
With a little research, I've found that it's a NMV Peavey Vintage Tweed.
It sounds angelic!
