THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE GEM!

*SUMMARY*

This T-60 instrument is a stunning and standout moment in Peavey’s file of music history.

I’m honestly stunned by how nice it is to play this guitar. It feels, sounds, and looks incredible. This guitar still has me scratching my head in all the right ways.

This was not only the first guitar that Peavey ever made, but it was also the first guitar in history to be made using CNC tech. The beautiful irony of that, is the striking natural beauty of the Swamp Ash from head to end strap pin. The T-60 guitar production run in Meridien, MS began in 1978 & ended in 1986.

You can’t go too far into a conversation about this guitar without mentioning the control system. The tone knob doubles as a blend control, allowing you to toggle between humbucking and coil-tapped sounds from the bridge pickup—an uncommon feature on most guitars.

**FYI: A note re the unique tone circuit & capabilities courtesy of:

The Fascinating Peavey T-60 Tone Circuit ~~
Dirk Wacker  July 3, 2020 issue Premier Guitar

“The guitar was loaded with two epoxy-potted four-conductor “full-range” hum buckers with a blade design, aka Super Ferrite pickups. They were covered with Rick-style toaster design pickup covers, had standard PAF dimensions, and were designed to sound good as humbuckers and single-coils when in split mode.” **

The overall weight of the T-60 plays a significant role in its signature sound, while the neck offers a surprisingly thin profile.

*CONDITION*

This guitar is all original & she’’s  in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. Despite closing in on 46 years of age, this axe is in such good condition, it still has the original factory plastic covering on the pick guard. All original explanatory graphics are still bright & clear on her control panel. We don’t believe this guitar received much playtime by her single previous owner.
Recently given a full professional setup by Dave Fecca Guitar Repairs and she’s ready to rip. There exists a small scratch on the front left side of the body. Comes with her original Peavey ABS fitted hard shell case, which is also in excellent condition.
