History:
Purchase: this was my first bass that i purchased when i started to learn how to play, i payed £200
What I Like About This Unit: when i walked upto the basses hanging on the wall i was drawn to it straight away, its a transparent cherry red which allows you to see the grain of wood on the bass, with matt silver hardware, rosewood fretboard, firstly the bass is well balanced, low action very comfy neck and has a matching headstock,
What I Do NOT Like About The Peavey International Series: the tonal range isnt great, its either punchy or smooth and jazzy, thats it, but i shouldnt realy complain about that considering it was only £200
International Series Quality: very solid bass, bridge is very sturdy, stays in tune well, ive had it for about 5 years now and there is barely a scratch on it because the finish is so tough, i had a fender us jazz and currently have a musicman sterling but in all honesty the peavey is the most comfortable to play it has such a great neck
Summary: i'd recommend this bass to anyone starting out or looking for a budget bass to play, i have no intention of parting with it as i still enjoy playing it, my guitarist plays a fender us telecaster and thought the peavey cost me in the region of 4-500 quid because it has such a quality sound
