major artists, at the time - perhaps the most famous, was Ross Valory of
the band, Journey.
There was also Leon Medica of Le Roux and Banner Thomas from
Molly Hatchet.
Leon has been a long time Peavey user - through T-20, T-40 and later using
a Peavey Zodiac.
Johnnie Copeland was a T-60 user, as were many studio players - one guitar,
for various tones.
One of the pics below, show Carl Perkins, with George Harrison and Eric Clapton,
wielding a T-60.
Some of the earlier literature that Peavey produced.
I asked Chip about the other T series guitars and basses but I think it is
perhaps best left alone and leave this feature as a T-40 and T-60 only.
Chip closed with these words.
I designed the T-15, T-30; hardware that I designed, and neck patents of mine
were on those instruments.
I haven't been curious enough to really look into the 20,25-27, or the T-45
for my input.
I'm honoured and surprised that anyone is interested to that depth.
Warm regards,
Chip
I would like to thank him again, for all of his help.
That about wraps it up on this one - I will be putting up shots of some of my "T"'s,
along with a pic of my unusual early case, with the blue interior.
Cheers. :)

I wonder if you ever followed down the rabbit hole further on any of the other Peavey Ts. I just bought a T-30. It's my first guitar and it's GREAT! I'm not especially large, and the short scale appealed. I read all the T-40/T-60 posts and have been pouring over old forums, etc. because I'm kinda geeking out here. I wonder if Chip has more to say.
Hi. I also have a T-30. Mainly lent out to youngsters, as it is way more easy to play than a full scale, if you have small hands. : )
