We'll I just went and picked her up; found her on Craig's List. She could use a good cleaning and again, one of the machine heads needs replacing. Actually the machine head is fine, it's the head that's just missing. I will be calling Peavey tomorrow and see if they might have one I can purchase.

But I can tell, this one is a keeper. Based on the serial number, I think she's #003.

I was able to get the guitar and hardshell case for :oops: :oops: :o $250.00 and a Crate GFX 65 amp for an additional $50.00. Man I'm stoked about this one!!!

Blessing, Bodie

That's a thing of beauty! Charlie (PVholic) is going to be booking a flight, since he's also a Purple-holic... :D

Oh Yeah, Being that my Peavey Odyssey 25th Anniversary was the first one made, (# 001) and handmade at that. I don't have any close up pictures of it, but the Trans Black Quilted top, has a Trans Purple at the edge of the top. I'll attach my very old pic of was my collection many I don't have anymore but I still have more Peavey Guitars and Basses than seen here. Mine is still NOS as I don't play it. I am just honored to take care of it. I have a letter from Peavey, from when it was made, explaining that this is hand made prototype with the last 3 digits are #001. I also have the 25th Anniversary Certificate that was actually hand signed by Hartley Peavey.

Keeping this one in the family.

Oh, I see what your talking about :D - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Sweet-Peav ... 500wt_1413

Nope, not mine.

Wait a minute - they're saying that that is #3, my serial number is xxxxx003. Or at least that's the best I can read it. I just looked again with a MAG light - it could be xxxxx009, but really looks like a 3????

Not sure what's going on here??? That one is in a lot rougher shape than mine is.

The guitar looks better in the pictures you posted here than the ones on eBay. But both are number 003. Hrmmmm.

Again, I may be mistaken about the number - it's just so hard to see the serial number. It's embedded and on black.

I just took a piece of bond paper and a pencil, placed the paper on top of the serial number, rubbed over it with a pencil.

Still looks like xxxxx003 to me, but again, could be xxxx009.

Either way, I'm MORE than happy with my purchase and I have no plans to sell it anytime soon.

Blessings, Bodie

Totally odd that the guy is selling his and it is number "003". And he descibes it similarly, however his is a bit worse for the wear.

Glad to hear that you are enjoying yours.
