Description
As the first American Peavey production bass, the T-40 holds a unique place in brand history. The rounded maple neck will be familiar to a variety of players & performs effortlessly from nut to cutaway. The pickups are punchy, yet possess a beefy low end that offers up a bit of chunk without losing articulation. When you consider the price point in comparison to the build quality & reliability, these basses are about as underrated as they come.
