Just out of curiosity: Jaguar questions.

Sign in to disble this ad
So I'm thinking about picking up another Jaguar bass to kind of customize and make my own, or even make modifications to my current bass. I think I'd like to start at the pickups.

I'm not sure if I really want to commit to this idea, but I just thought of it: has anybody ever tried 51-style precision pickups in place of J-style pickups? I am assuming it would fatten up the sound a bit, but I could be very wrong. I think it might be interesting to try out: would these pickups be easily switched back to jazz pickups if I didn't like how it sounded? Additionally, has anybody tried these pickups with any sort of preamp before?

They wouldn't fit in the Jag's pickup routes.
