Peavey foundation Knobs

Post by Bleecker » Thu Jul 27, 2017 2:54 pm

Hi all,
I scored an 86 Foundation fretless for $100. Its missing the knobs. Any idea where I can get some replacements? Or what type of aftermarket knobs will work on this bass?

Thanks

Are the splines of the pot shafts fine or coarse?

This may help:

Thanks for the great link. I learned mine is fine spline.

Question...What do you all think the original knobs were? Its a 1986 foundation sunburst. I have seen many different kinds depending on year and color.

Thanks in advance.

Yes. Thats what I'm going with...still not sure what the original type would be. They have used many different types of knobs over the years...
Thanks
