1981 Peavey T-60 Guitar Review By Scott Grove

This is a simple guitar review and all opinions are exactly that, my opinions. These are done to try to help you decide if you like or don't like a guitar. I don't want to hear your negative comments. Guitarists are some of the most rude people out there for some reason when it comes to leaving comments. So, if you don't like it, simply move along. OK?

@jtsinned Thank you so very much. There are so many great Peavey guitars. Probably more great axes than any other company. That T-15 deal is crazy! I'll be picking up one for sure. Not at that amazing price though....holy cow! The Predators are SUPERB. There are MANY versions of the Predators, so pick what works for you. They come with and without pickguards, flame tops or just solid colors etc. I'll be more than happy to toss more Peavey content your way! Cheers and keep in touch!

Thanks for the thorough review. Seems like an awesome guitar (thinking about picking one up in a trade). One thing I wanted to mention is that there is _one_ other guitar that has a similar tone option for splitting the coils: the HH Jaguar that Fender started putting out a few years back has little rollers above the hummies that do the same thing. Agree--it is total genius.

@superduperlouber Good call on the Jaguar, I remember that. Very true and thanks for posting that. You are welcome for the review. That was my total pleasure for sure my friend!

Thinking about taking some weight off my Peavey by trimming the top horn and it wide butt. Probably some Strat like contours sanded for comfort, good idea or bad? Thing is just to darn heavy but I love it

[groovydjs]

@Caveira138 Horrible Idea, just get a strap that is 2" wider than what you are using and it will feel like it weighs half of what it does. Never, ever destroy a guitar like that. That would be like painting a pecker on the Mona Lisa's forehead.

@LoveThatTeleTwang That sounds right and if you're getting buzz still, then it might very well just be a high fret or two that need to be filed down. To they buzz all the way up the entire neck after that spot or just on those couple of frets?

[LoveThatTeleTwang]

@groovydjs It's a little higher at the 21st. Not by much, but it is higher. Thanks.

[groovydjs]

@LoveThatTeleTwang Ok, that makes sense. Here is the part that will make it all come together. Is the measurements of string height more than that or less than that at your highest frets?

[groovydjs]

@mapleblackdrums I actually like the T-60's a LOT more than my Telecasters. I hate Telecasters actually. All except for the James Burton Signature models, and even then I don't like the Fender scale length.  I've always found it interesting how they will charge a LOT more to do a refret on a maple fingerboard over a rosewood or ebony. I guess because of the harder wood and it's harder to pull and seat the frets. So, you end up paying eventually. lol
