Is it just me, or is the pickup off-center from the neck & strings??

I did a quick run on YouTube the night I got it. I just went through the strings, but last night I played a lot more on it and I'm in love!
Both PU's together sound like a Split Coil P-bass on steroids!!

I'm guessing it was made for a bass with 19mm string spacing. Have you tried raising the pickup slightly on that side to compensate?

Not yet, but that's a good idea!
I asked Larry for the most optimum pickup to get for my P-bass, the Model One or the Will Power and he said the WP was made to fit long-scale basses better... lucky I didn't buy the Model One right away

JosephGallagher 2 months ago
Larry, which pickup do you recommend better for a 34" scale p-bass? The Model One or the Will Power (Neck)?

LarryDiMarzio 2 months ago
The Will Power, primarily based on the polepiece spacing.

I have the 50s and 60s CV. The 50s is pretty amazing--I was thinking about ditching it while culling the herd, but couldn't--it just sounds too great, and quite versatile. So I popped an etched pinup neck plate on it (Blondie) and put it back in its rightful place alongside MIA Fender basses that cost four times as much but don't sound half as good. The 60s is perennial favorite with my son and his pals.and I totally dig the fast JB width neck. It rocks on the A and D strings. It's staying.

Is this what you're looking for?
Totally stock this is an absolutely wonderful bass.
Sorry mine is most definitely NOT for sale. This is my band mates favorite bass, more so than my '79 or '06 Fender P basses.
