I picked this up from my local CL for a decent price - I really didn't need another bass, but given what it was, I couldn't pass it by:

Very cool. 8) I remember those from back in the day. A music store that I used to frequent back then had a turquoise colored one that I used to mess around with.

Thanks - I'm pretty sure the color is burgundy mist metallic... It's in pretty good shape for it's years, and should clean up nicely... One of the knobs is missing it's "F cap", and I'm trying to chase one down - and I'm picking it up from my luthier's place after a light fret level job... Other than those minor issues, it's a very nice instrument - no fret wear, and sounds really good - it's definitely going to see some stage time...

Sounds good. 8) I have no idea where you'd find those caps with the Fender logo. I have a Precision Bass Lyte that has those, and a couple are missing. I don't even know how that even happened in the first place, or where they even went.

Yeah, I'm sure there's a couple around here and there, but not all that commonly found - I'll keep poking around 'til I find one...
