200 Shipped : Peavey Foundation MIA 4 string!!!!!!! Price drop 190

Price dropped to 180
Price Drop 190$


For Sale Peavey Foundation 4 string jazz style bass. I'm not sure of the exact year but I think it is an 89 or 90. It has the super ferrite pickups, solid lightweight tuners, and asymmetrical bridge that all of the early foundations had. All electronics work well although the jack doesn't grip a cable perfectly tight..although I have gigged with it as is numerous times as is no sweat it will probably have to be replaced sometime.

I will give a detailed description of the bass. The condition of the bass is good...not mint, not crap house but good. It has a number of scratches and small nicks, belt rash etc. but for a 20+ year bass it is fine. Nothing you will notice unless you are looking for it. At some point someone touched a few spots in the front up with some kind of white paint and did an amateur job but it isn't very noticeable. The hardware is all good with just a hair of oxidation on the bridge. I have installed new springs and screws.. Tuners are great. The neck is very straight after I added a lock washer and the action is great. I don't notice any fret wear. This bass plays very well and comfortable with its slim neck and comfortable thumb placement on pickups. You could call this a "players bass" ...... it is more or less in good condition and playing well. (the black square is a slap guard which will be removed before sale.) Overall this is a great bass for the price and it will come packed tight with a Gator gig bag that is missing a zipper but works fine. The pictures tell the story>>>>>>

yep super ferrites. Sounds great kind of punchier than a standard jazz but that punch can be dialed back with the tone knob. I have been offered a great trade for this but I would rather sell it......... but I am tempted
