Peavey Cirrus 4 Electric Bass. Flame Maple 35S Trans Black 35S

Peavey's new Cirrus? bass guitar lineup reintroduces the iconic 4- and 5-string models with nine distinct styles, blending high-end craftsmanship, exotic hardwoods, and powerful VFL humbuckers with 3-band active EQ. Reviving the beloved 1997 neck-through design pioneered by master luthier Mike Powers, these basses feature a 35-inch scale for enhanced low-end, visually striking maple or wenge tops, and elegant details like rosewood fretboards, Cirrus inlays, and gold or black hardware. With refined electronics and premium finishes, the Cirrus bass returns to offer a bold, modern evolution grounded in its respected legacy.

The Cirrus? Flame Maple isn?t just another bass guitar ? it?s a masterfully handcrafted instrument using select wood originally sourced and stored in the USA from the first Cirrus production runs. Its seven-piece neck-through-body design with solid wings and purpleheart stringers delivers incredible sustain, superior balance, and unmatched stability. Premium details and careful construction make this bass guitar as dependable as it is visually striking.

The initial launch of handcrafted Cirrus basses in 1997 helped Peavey guitars gain a new level of respect among professional players. Peavey?s master luthier, the late Mike Powers, achieved excellent tone with a lighter, neck-through design. In the new Cirrus bass models, Peavey brings back this essential feature, as well as the use of exotic hardwoods, state-of-the-art electronics, and a 35-inch scale length to improve the low-end.

The new Cirrus bass design improves upon the VFL (Vertical Flux Loading) humbucker technology that originally debuted with this model. VFL was another Powers innovation that optimized the magnetic field for less inductance and enhanced high-frequency performance. Peavey?s VFL electronics include 3-band active Cirrus EQ, blend control, and master volume, allowing players of various styles to dial in their perfect tone.

There are two models available: the Cirrus 4-string and 5-string. Each model offers Flame Maple, Flame Maple Trans Black, Flame Maple Trans Blue, or Wenge wood for the top material. The Cirrus 4 offers the additional option of a Quilt Maple top. The maple tops are paired with alder bodies, achieving a harmonious balance of brightness and midrange warmth. Similarly, the pairing of the wenge top with walnut creates a distinctive tonal fusion resulting in a rich, balanced sound. A natural oil finish is used, with the exception of the Flame Maple Transparent Blue and Transparent Black models, which have a corresponding Gloss Burst finish for a dazzling splash of color.

On each model, a rosewood fretboard with 24 medium jumbo frets is reinforced by purple heart wood stringers, which not only add to the tonal depth but provide an eye-catching design that complements each instrument?s overall look. Another captivating signature feature is the Cirrus inlay on the 12th fret.

The engineering team also tips their hat to the lightweight 1997 design by using graphite pultrusion, as well as a graphite top nut and graphite overlay headstock with Peavey?s block letter logo.

Wood is the material of choice for the back plate, battery cover, and dual-action truss rod cover, secured with machine screws.

While most of the models have sleek black hardware, the Quilt Maple and Flame Maple models offer a unique flair with gold hardware. Dunlop-style strap locks come standard.

With the debut of Peavey?s new Cirrus bass guitars, past and present reunite to provide players endless possibilities for a new musical journey.

The innovative PowerPlate? technology enhances sustain and volume, virtually eliminating dead spots on the fretboard, making it the perfect instrument for any musician
