jdgm Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I'm figuring they were heavy? No I remember them being thin and compact. Some of the old MusicMan guitars from the same era...those were heavy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi Mac Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Johnny "Clyde" Copeland was using a similar Peavey back in the 80's and into the 90's. I saw him live and stood about 5' away from him at a live show in a downstairs pub where the stage was simply the floor toward one wall. It was the same venue I played at a few times myself and in this basement their were structural pillars that were supporting the whole building running thru the space and if you got stuck in the wrong place on a croweded night you couldn't see the band. I went on the band side of one of these pillars and leaned against it and nobody asked me to move back so I watch the whole show from about 5' away from Johnny... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGPx-ekqZEo Oh, an' I had the utterly blessed privilege to have seen SRV live and in person from 4 rows back at an outdoor amphitheater in 1989... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbVuOsXhyo8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon S. Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I just sold a T-40 bass that was easily the heaviest I've owned(minus uprights). It was over 13 lbs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Scales Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 a T-40 bass is the heaviest guitar I have ever lifted. I could not imagine gigging one. kudos to Jon S if you have. It'd be light for a piano I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
