This bass was built by the most skilled craftsmen and made from the finest materials available. As with all of our musical equipment, we have built our bass guitars using a combination of leading-edge technology and traditional hand-crafted methods. The Axceleralor ” Plus preamp is designed to offer the bass player maximum flexibility and tonal variation. Its discrete circuitry and full-shielding offer wide dynamic range and ultra-low noise operation. Ask your Peavey dealer for a full list of other Peavey musical equipment and accessories. Features Select swamp ash body Bilaminated rock maple neck Pau Ferro fingerboard with 12" radius 34" scale length, 21 frets 8° tilt headstock Graphlon “ topnut Reduced-mass "mini" bass machine heads Two VFL'” Plus active humbucking pickups Low-impedance output (18-volt powered) Active high/low boost and cut circuit Fully-shielded electronics Solid-milled bridge with saddle tracks Separate battery compartment Construction Body The body of this instrument is constructed from the finest swamp ash. The deep double cutaway design provides unimpeded access to the highest fret while the extended upper horn balances the instrument, thereby avoiding the need to support the instrument with the left hand. The instrument features our polyester/urethane finish, which is mar- and weather-resistant. Neck The eastern maple neck is constructed by means of a unique bilaminated process (U.S. Patent - 4,237,944) to provide unmatched rigidity and freedom from warpage. Additional reinforcement is provided with a steel torsion rod. The neck's adjusting rod features rolled threads for improved strength and freedom from breakage. The ultra-slim neck features a full 34" scale length, 21 18% nickel/silver frets which are medium height, highly crowned, and polished. The Pau Ferro fingerboard features a 12" radius to provide exceptional playing ease and string distance/balance characteristics. The neck of this instrument also employs four die-cast enclosed machine heads and a durable Graphlon™ topnut. Pickups The two VFL,M Plus, active, humbucking pickups were designed and built by Peavey to provide the widest range of the tonal spectrum for bass. The coils are wax-dipped then the pickup is shielded and potted to eliminate any microphonic feedback or external interference. Battery The preamplifier is powered by 2 9-volt batteries (not included) which is accessible through the small cover on the back of the instrument. Note: Heavy-duty or alkaline batteries are recommended for reliability and longest battery life. Low battery voltage will result in "fuzzy" or distorted sound, especially with higher tone and volume settings. Note: Peavey Electronics assumes no responsibility for damage resulting from a leaking or defective battery. Power is supplied to the preamplifier when a standard (mono) guitar cable is connected to the instrument. To ensure the longest battery life be sure to disconnect any cable from the instrument when it is not in use. Controls Volume The volume knob controls the total signal level delivered from the magnetic pickups to the output jack. Tone Network The tone network utilized in the magnetic pickup circuit is an active high/low pass shelving circuit. With both controls at center position, output from both pickups is essentially flat. Rotating the "high" control (small...
