Up for sale is a classic 1981 Peavey T-40 in the sought-after natural finish with a one-piece maple neck and fretboard. This USA-made tank of a bass is in very good condition for its age, showing only light cosmetic wear, minor dings, and surface scratches consistent with normal use, but nothing that affects playability or function.
The T-40 is famous for its versatile electronics, featuring dual humbuckers with coil-splitting via the tone controls, allowing everything from deep Precision-style thump to bright Jazz-style grind. It sounds massive, with that unmistakable vintage Peavey punch.
Weight is a hefty 11 lbs 10 oz—right in line with what these are known for, giving it excellent sustain and authority. Includes the original Peavey “chainsaw” hard case, which is in solid working condition and a collectible piece in its own right.
A true vintage workhorse and one of the best values in USA-made basses from the era. Perfect for players, collectors, or anyone chasing that old-school T-40 tone.
