    While on vacation in Maine two weeks ago, we stopped in at an antique store that we have visited every year since 2004-ish. This is one of those large antique stores that rents booth spaces out to vendors. There's one vendor that consistently has old instruments, ranging from old woodwinds to...

    Thank you very much; this is all extremely helpful. I'll swap strings at the time of installing the new electronics. I have a set of 760FS strings that I had set aside for this.

    Question for you who have replaced the factory pups. I'm looking at modding one of the two 1987 Furys that I have, specifically replacing the factory pups with SD QP for a different range of sound. Is there a brand and model of potentiometer that fits best and has the necessary performance specs?

    Dude. I'd take one in each color. Finally got around to getting photos of the previously referenced '87 Furys. The white body has the satin finish neck; the burst is gloss. Not sure if that comes through in the photos. In the neck closeups, the first one is the gloss.

I'm pretty much riding the Fury wave at the moment; the neck on my first '87 is the most comfortable that I have handled, so I figured I'd just pick up a second one and swap the pickups just to have something with a...

    Thank you! I picked the one with the satin neck up a while back as a project to swap quarter pounders into. The body on that bass looked like it had "character" in the way of scrapes into the finish on the back; turned out that five minutes with a magic eraser revealed no damage at all, aside...

    I own a pair of 1987 vintage Fury; the finish on the necks is different: one is satin and so is very smooth, the other lacquered. Was that normal? Seems unlikely that they would have been offered in two different finishes.

    Similar to the previous post, I ordered one of these today from GC after having seen the price come down on the green model. In looking through the thread, and reading other online reviews, I'm considering swapping out the tuners; the two types that are within the budget and appeal to me are...
