My gigging bass of choice these days has been my Kawai KRB-105. I love the way it plays. It sounds pretty good too...
Pretty good isn't my cup of tea, though. I want awesome.
On this particular bass, the current setup is vol-tone-pickup select switch. Pickups are EMGs.
The issue that this bass suffers from is an itsy bitsy, teenie weenie control cavity. It barely has enough room for a 9v battery, let alone a good preamp.
Another thing is, I'd like to run a J-P-J setup. I like the PJ, but miss dual J pickup tones. So I want the Stu Hamm pickup configuration! Aside from plenty of tone options, I get a thumbrest further towards the neck.
What would you imagine a ballpark figure may be for:
1) routing a J pickup cavity
2) routing a larger control cavity and a cover for it
I can do all of the wiring, but I'm not too familiar with a router.
Anyone ever have this done?
(and I felt this thread would be better served in the "Pickups & Electronics" category because it has more to do with electronics issues than "Setup and Hardware")
