Yes, I understand, but what '2'? Not the amount of pups, not the price, so something within the way they sound! ;)

Thanks for your fast reply, appreciated! :thumbsup::) I understood there's a difference between the regular pups and the 'Classic Bass' series, but was wondering what the difference between these two models from within the same 'range' was/is. TheBartolini webpage itself even isn't very specific...

Anybody have experience using both the Bartolini 4-String Classic Dual Coil J-Bass – 9CBJD1 and 4-String Classic Dual Coil J-Bass – 9CBJD3 pickup sets? How do they compare? Got offered new/unused sets of both types at a very reasonable price recently, so I'm wondering which to pick? I'm talking...

Thanks! After hearing and seeing the Empire Music vids - I know, circumstances weren't identical probably, as to amp and location - I somehow lean towards the CV tele bass, I like the way that one sounds slightly better. For me there is no difference in pricing really, up here in Norway, they...

Is this an AI pic or is it actually real?🙃 I love the idea/concept btw, love to see/hear one irl.. You got one?

Thanks for posting these vids, gives me a nice comparison option for the way they both sound! :thumbsup: ;):bassist:

Yes, I read about him, master instrumentalist sporting a 'simple' Telecaster bass on several occasions.

Aah, that's good to know, thank you. Rotosound roundwound has always been the way to go for me, although it seems quality has been going down over the last years, so I heard. The pickup used in the Squier re-issue supposedly is similar/very much like the original chrome humbucker, but of course...

Yea, that's the T-Birds alright, but it's not Keith Ferguson (RIP). He played in the early line up and left around 1983 or close by.

I checked online to see if my memory was correct and I've seen several pics of Keith, who was left handed, playing what looks like a Telecaster bass 'upside down' I'm not that good a ' connaisseur', nor are the pics themselves - from the late 7ts/early 8ts - really conclusive, to see if the...

@all, I wanted to edit the original posting and add some extra info, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible. Where I live, up in out of the country northern Norway it just isn't easy, not to say impossible, to walk a couple' blocks down or even take the car for a 30 minute drive to...

Probably kinda dumb of me, but what does 'WRHB' mean? :) Love your ' Kicksville' shout out btw...

Hiyah folks! Good to be back! Got a question for ya'all: what are the pros and cons when comparing the Squier Classic Vibe'50s bass to the Squier CV Telecaster bass? I really love the early Precision and Telecaster models and I like they're available at a budget price, so I'm thinking of getting...

Quite confused here..:thumbsup:;) So, a leftie neck upside down? Body & hardware from..?.. And what with the logos at the top if the neck? :) I'm absolutely no specialist, but it does have a somewhat 'exotic' look.. :cool:

Well, you know, apart from some dirt and lots of dust, it works great! Even the old strings sound some kinda fresh, not dull, even though it might be a good idea to cook them out or whatever phrase you use in proper English/American. And as I told earlier, it is like new, it even had the...
