NAMM 2010: Peavey expands PXD Series to bass guitars

PRESS RELEASE: Peavey proudly introduces the Tragic 4 and Void 4, the first bass guitars in its award-winning PXD Series. The Peavey PXD Series is a new breed of extreme guitars and basses that capture the aggression and attitude of modern metal players.

The Peavey PXD Tragic and Void are 4-string, neck-through-body bass guitars built with an alder body, maple neck and ebony fretboard. A pair of Peavey VFL active pickups - the same proprietary electronics used on Peavey's acclaimed Cirrus and Millennium AC Series basses - give players amazing tonal control through an active three-band EQ with +/- 10 dB boost and cut.

Both models are available in matte black with a brushed aluminum-finish pickguard, plus gloss black, gloss white or gloss red finishes.

The PXD endorser roster includes metal's hottest young musicians, including Chad Kulengosky and Timoteo Rosales (I Am Ghost); Kirk Windstein (Down, Crowbar, Kingdom of Sorrow); Matt Brunson (Crowbar); Dan Hatfield (The Crimson Armada); John Hehman III (Year of Desolation); Jon Pauly (Corpus Christi A.D.); Andy Vangelisto and Jonathan Matthews (Planes Crash); Monster (Jugulur); Casey Ash and Patrick Hearn (Less Than A Second); and Pete Evick (Bret Michaels Band).
