here's my latest aquisition
That looks an awful lot like my 1994 Fury, except mine just had the single P split-coil pickup with vol and tone. I'm thinking they released Fury's with the P/J config at around the same time?
Nice bass, btw.
Here's mine:
I LOVE the hell out of it. I grew up playing a P-bass Special so I'm good and used to the P/J config and it's great but I always favor that P pickup anyway so I don't miss the bridge J so much. Still and all, it's nice to have it.
This is my Peavey foundation, absolutely love it, playing it never gets old!Sorry about the poor quality.

Hey,
I have its 4 string little brother!
Wow, I cant believe I don't have a number.
My fault entirely to be sure, but with the number of USA made Peaveys I own and have owned in the past I assumed I had already petitioned for a number.

1982 T-20
1984 Foundation
1987 Dyna-Bass
1984 Patriot
1993 Foundation 5
1995 Foundation
I recently traded the 93' Foundation 5 (for a '94 Ibanez SR1200) but replaced it a few weeks later with a '95 Foundation four string in black with maple fretboard, so it virtually looks identical.

Question for Peavey fans:
I've been using a gig bag to store my '94 US Fury but this is not my favorite storage method. What hardshell case do you like best for this model? Would most generic P-bass cases work or are the measurements off by enough to affect the fit?

Sorry it took so long to answer.
I used glossy black paint and a paint brush.
I used a sealer/primer first and let the paint
get thick, but still thin enough to slump to a
smooth bulge. Kept the ding level and left it
alone for a while.
You can still see it, but only up close,

For inexpensive storage, Musiciansfriend has a generic HSC like the one that I received with a TB classified's US Peavey.
Hey guys, I was wondering about the patriot. I was curious to see if anybody has put another of one the pups closer to the neck. Thanks.
Another bump, check my sig.
I'm interested in the patriot with the super ferrite pickups, t40, or anything 5string

It can be done but you'd be better off getting a Foundation or Dynabass. On the basses with two single coil Super Ferrites, the pickups are magnetically out of phase and are wired electrically out of phase to form a humbucker when both are on. In order to add one to your Patriot you will have to find a pickup that is magnetically out of phase to the one you have.
A compass can be used to determine if pickups are the same or opposite magnetic polarity. The compass will point South to the top of a North PU and North to the top of a South PU.

Patriots have different electronics than what you're perceiving.
Foundations aren't rocketing in value like Patriots.. better getting a dyuna or patrio like prviously noted.

So you're saying I could do this, but I would have to make sure the pickups have opposite polarity? And I realize the foundation already had the 2 super ferrites, but I'm looking for the middle and neck positions, not bridge and middle. But, that being said, could I buy the electronics out of an foundation and pop it into the patriot?
Thanks
You "could" if you liked doing expensive tests.. a Patriot, T20 and Foundation have different pickups.
I've owned 3 pickup basses.. wasn't as useful as I thought it would be... a preamp made a mor noticeable difference.
I meant as in, rip the patriot electronics and add the foundation electronics. So only 2 pups, but in the middle and neck positions like how I'd like.
I'm set on the patriot as far as body style and what not goes plus the $120 range is what I'm aiming for (just for the bass, not the upgrades included), but I want to add another super ferrite where the neck pup in a Rickenbacker (obviously I'm not going to achieve the tone) to add more bass and color to the tone.
As for 3 pups not making a difference, have you checked you that Godin shifter!?
Thanks
