    I vote ibenez along with the rest. I started on an Sr. Nice and slim neck, probably the most slim of any bass I've own. It checks all your boxes. I seen you mentioned shecter and metal, anyone try the schecter c4 apocalypse? Not active like you want though:thumbsdown: here's a description from...

    A very good job, I almost like it more then my p bass lol. The jb2 is really a great bass, the tones I get out of the pups are just gold. I can't say enough about the neck, easy player. Fretboard is Brazilian cherry, real nice open grain but you can't feel it. Balanced, locking bridge, 6 bolt...

    So the issue is buzz even with both pickups at same volume. Buzz would go away when I touch the strings. I removed the bridge today and yup ground wire was nice and flat ( added a pice of tape to keep it in place) I then resheild the pickup cavities and brought ground wires back to the shielding...

    Jazz hum making me wanna buy a new p bass!

    I'm heading to the shed now to pull the bridge off. Is there need to ground a wire from the input jack to the shielding? I see some people do this but aren't knobs and Jack's grounded to the outside? Meaning the case and washers that hold them to the body are grounded, which would contact my...
