Thank you! It did end up turning out really good. But It seems I will have to put it up in the classifieds this week

I have a Vintage Modified Jaguar that I replaced the pups with a Dimarzio Split P and a Duncan quarter pound J. Does that count?

I never use my volume/tone knobs just leave them wide open! So today out come the pots and EMG's I put in a GFS PB Pro PLUS pickup and I'm happy with my sound now. I never liked active Pickups.

Pic of new pup,

Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass

Hey Folks,

You have some fun mods going on here! I've been trying my hand at modding a few SX basses.

Question about this bass:

Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Bass
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TufGHRyEr2Y

I love that rosewood board with blocks!

Anyway... Any of you have one of these? Seems like I wouldn't mod it too much, but I could see doing my usual PU's and maybe Pre...

Any good sources on the web to get one other than MF?

Cheers, and thanks for reading

My tricking-out these days for my ideal P has slowed considerably. For over 10 years I was delighted with it, then I found a better neck on another bass. I have the best body (presumably a Squier but true provenance unknown) and SQ-series neck I can put together. JF344 and Fralin 5% overwound do the rest. I may try a Hipshot B bridge in brass, which may be an improvement over the Babicz or not. I also have some Hipshot Ultralite cloverleafs that may improve slight dead spots or not. From time to time, I will see if another neck or body improves this pieces-parts bass. I may get the frets Plek'd or dress them myself. I will definitely cut a graphite nut for it. And there isn't much more to do here.

I didn't have the 4 knobs at the time of the picture, but they are standard chrome pbass/musicman knobs
still haven't upgraded the bridge though

Let me join in the congratulations as well. And, I have been with my wife over 30 years - married almost as long (February 2013 is the anniversary).
