1980 Rare Pedulla EMS Bass – Very Low Serial Number

Great condition for this vintage Peavey Bass. In great condition , all original and with the original Peavey “chainsaw” hard case. The Peavey T-40 was one of the brand’s first bass designs ever, and popular for its affordability and construction. Although the T-40 is heavy, it’s built like a tank and can consequently take a beating. The T-40 bass sports two Toaster-style pickups and two switches. (pickup sector and phase in/out) The phase switch only works when both pickups are selected. How the circuit works (from the manual) “Our unique tone circuitry enables dual or single coil operation of each pickup independently through the rotation of the pickup tone controls. Rotating the tone controls fully clockwise (position #10) achieves the single coil mode and produces a greater degree of “highs” from the instrument. Rotating the tone controls counterclockwise to approximately the #7 position brings the second coil into operation for full-range, humbucking tonalites. Further counterclockwise rotation of the tone controls ( from #7 to #0) yield conventional ton contouring action”
