JM@ReunionBl ues on 05/07/2009	Allswell: I'm not sure, but these appraisals might seem low based on the state of the economy right now. People are hanging onto their bucks right now and, well, you know! bilcrook: In my opinion, guitars are meant to be played and a Peavey is as good as it gets for just that. Peavey "gets it" when it comes to manufacturing and are still coming out with new ideas and patents after 40 years in business... so play that thang!
bilcrook on 05/03/2009	I am also an owner of a Peavey T60, there was useful info in your demo on the T60. I got mine cheap, $160.00 in the form fitting case, from a little old lady in a Northern California flea market, I saw it once and didn't go back to that Flea market for at least 2 years, when I went back it was still there, with a little haggling, I walked out $160 bucks lighter, but, came home with this wonderful guitar. I stand it against any Les Paul, at first the Les Paul owners chuckle a bit, but, when they pick it up and play it, it's an entirely different story, they want to know where I got it, are there any more and how much do I want for it....gotta love it .... Of course, mine is not the proto type, but it comes with everything that your media clip showed, except the 00000000 serial number. I would think mine would appraise well, too boot. I might add that I know of only one other owner, here in NORCAL that uses his actively as I do...So, I guess the question is, are these guitars, something I should be using, or should they be shelved, for the potential value aspect....I had no idea they could be worth that much. Mine is black, my friends is the natural wood as shown in the video. Both are in great shape. Show me some love with a response. Thanks for your video and interest in a these vintage instruments.
Allswell on 04/30/2009	These appraisals seem low compared with the price of a new off the shelf overpriced production model of today...I'd spend the dough on a classic!
