About This Product!
Description
Docs
Peavey Millennium bass guitars are well regarded as the essential working player's bass for their solid low end, playability and craftsmanship -- in fact, pros such as John Campbell (Lamb of God), Josh Sattler (doubleDRIVE) and Marco Mendoza (Ted Nugent, Whitesnake) are avid Millennium players.

Each Millennium AC BXP bass features a Basswood body, Hard Rock Maple neck with Rosewood fretboard and an attractive quilted Maple cap. An active electronic system, driven by Peavey Cirrus neck and bridge active pickups, provides an extra boost in volume and tone with more expressive sound control. These 21-fret, 34 in. scale basses also feature volume, pickup blend, bass, mid and treble controls, as well as the new Peavey headstock design.

"Great bass for low price"
Feature:
The controls they give you provide a wide array of possibilities for sound. You can fine-tune it to you particular taste pretty easily.

Quality:
Product seems to be of very good quality. I got a maroon one, just looks astounding. Feels as if it is built pretty sturdy, and a nice weight to it, not too light, not too heavy. Everything is smooth and curvy, and I love the head. I've only had it for a few months now, but the only problem I've encountered was having to replace the batteries that came in it (nearly had a heart attack, thought the thing screwed up, but was perfectly fine after replacing them). I also have an Ibanez SR300DX I got before this, paid almost as much as for this Peavey, and the Peavey easily blew it away.

Value:
Pretty low price I think for a very nice bass.

Desirability:
I don't know about everyone else, but I love the shape of the body. The P-bass design with the elongated, slender horns, and the head is fantastic. The maroon color is beautiful, makes me want to get another to just see how good the other colors look.

Sound:
Pretty good sounding. Nice and quiet when needed. Can use the control to adjust so you can have mega bass or, if you want, adjust so that you can get a more guitar like sound. Nice and solid overall, works good with rock and alternative.

Support:
Haven't had to deal with the company yet, hope I won't have to. Seems like they'd be pretty easy to deal with though, easy links up on the Peavey website. You can also reach their manuals online too (I either lost mine or it didn't come with it, I'm not sure), but I was able to download the one off the internet.

Overall:
Well, I'm already looking for other basses, but that's because I'm a collector. I want other basses in addition to this one, just to get a view of other brands, other styles, etc. I'd say, comparing this with other basses I've looked at, it might not be the best out there, but it is sure damn good for under 500 dollars. In the event that it ever got lost or were stolen, I would definately go out and get another Millenium AC 4 BXP.

"Perfect 10... Aside from the "Worst Factory I've Setup Ever Seen""
Feature:
Completely adjustable sound & tone - can't go wrong.

Quality:
Quality would be a 10, but I guess the extremely poor factory setup on the one I received effects my opinion on the quality a bit.

Value:
I don't think you could find a better bass for the price. If you don't need the huge range of tones and better pickups that come on this bass, the cheaper Peavey Millennium 4BXP is nice for a basic bass.

Desirability:
This is my only bass and probably will be as long as it's functional... it does everything I need it to.

Sound:
The electronics on this bass create a very wide range of tones. I've tried other basses and none have compared to this one with Peavey's high-end pickups and active electronics. This bass could be used for any style of music. The pickups are also silent when it's not being played which is nice.

Support:
Haven't needed it yet.

Overall:
This is an amazing bass. The only reason I gave it an 9 is because when mine arrived, the factory setup was so bad that the strings were pressed down on the fretboard so hard they wouldn't even produce a sound. This was the worst factory setup I've ever seen on a guitar. After adjusting the truss rod and string height, it's a perfect 10. Also the batteries were both dead when it arrived and needed to be replaced before it would play.
