NBD!

Interesting. Been looking for a second bass to complement my Fender Squier P. I just located a Fury at a local pawn shop (listed on CL), Candy apple red with white pickguard and maple neck. They want $399 for it. Deserves a look this weekend.

See if you can talk them down a bit on the price. You can find a Fury for under $200 if you are just a little patient.
 
Check out the headstock on this one. Looks classy

It was the orlando lee rd samash. My uncle lives near there so we always go to the music stores when I come up. If this was your bass, could you tell me if the knobs are original. The bridge pickup volume knob looks different than the neck volume and tone.

Yeah, the knobs were already changed when I got it, but I am responsible for the setup. Glad you like it. I was up to 7 Foundations, and I really prefer maple necks and the later pickups so I traded in two of them for an Electronic drumset. There is another change, I replaced the original capactitor with a .082 so I could roll off more treble. If you would like the original PM me your mailing address and I can mail one to you(I make this change on all my Foundations and have several of the originals laying around). Personally, I'd leave it as it is.

PS: Congradulations, they gave you the wrong case. That bass came with a Square later model PV case. They gave you the bullet case (much more desireable) from the '87 Foundation that I traded in at the same time. That Foundation never even made it onto the floor. One of the employees must have snapped it up.
 
I am close by you guys here in downtown Orlando. I am such a dope that I have lived here for six years and I just found out a year ago that Bass Central is 15 minutes away from my house! doh!

btw... my second bass (back in 1985) was a Peavey T-40... loved that bass
My brother had a Peavey T-40. That is why I was intrigued by this bass. His T-40 was killer. My dad's first bass was a T-40. He got it so he could be like Chris Squire. I'm not sure how he figured but he has great stories about walking 5 miles in the snow with that heavy thing. You know the Five miles up hill both ways kinda thing.;)
