The Liberace Show 1954.

This is the first ever appearance of an electric bass as it wasnt even in the stores yet. The show was used by Fender to introduce it to the public...

Nothing is heavier then a Peavey T-40 bass. Friend has one and its basically a tree with strings on it

Peavey reminds me of my ATKs similar woodgrain and they're heavy as well
