Fender C/S 60's in a fretless

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi, my 2002 MIM Jazz fretless is equipped with DiMarzio Model J's, and Fender 7150XL pure nickel rounds.

Originally, I bought the DiMarzios because;
The originals sounded pretty weak to me
The DiMarzio's are hum cancelling, which I thought would be a big deal at the time.

Over time though, I found that the DiMarzio's are just too thick sounding for my tastes. I've also found I like the single coil tone better. I can live with the buzz, not a big deal (since they would cancel hum when adjusted equally anyway, I'm not concerned.)

I was thinking of maybe going for some Fender C/S 60's for this bass. Anybody else have them in their fretless? How do you like them there?

Thanks for looking, all opinions welcome

How do you guys think these are compared to, say, Basslines SJB-1's or SJB-2's?
