In my mind, either way, a custom pickup with a new bridge will be an upgrade from what I'm rocking now.

That sounds interesting. Is this something that is easy to do on my own as a newcomer to working with wiring, or would I need to consult some one who specializes?

So I'm wanting to get a bit of versatility out of my MIM Fender Jazz. I'm currently replacing the bridge with a badass ii, because the stock bridge was broken by the previous owner. I'm wanting to replace the pups with something that will get me a bit more girth. I want to have a little more...

Bump

The bridge is currently broken, because the previous owner was a bit aggressive.

If it sounds like a horrible proposition, what do you suggest to get the desired sound?

Hey guys. So I've got a Fender MIM Jazz bass. I am trying to mod it to get the best of both Fender tones. First thing I'm doing is replacing the bridge with a badass ii bridge. I want to have a tone that is capable of deep, agressive sounds as well as the smooth jazz tones of the j bass. I have...

I'm looking into getting a rack tuner and compressor (maybe an eq) to run with my Genz Benz Shuttle 6.2. Any suggestions?

Definitely have no intentions of skimping out on the cabinet. If I were to go with the 6.0 or 6.2, do you think that a 4x10 at 4 ohms would do the job to keep up with a full band?

As far as the shuttles, what cabinet would you suggest pairing it with? Also, which wattage? 6.0? I definitely need enough headroom to play over loud drums for cases in which there isn't a good sound system.

Where are you from Roko? I have a used 810 for sale.

I'm looking at an Eden Traveler 550, a Hartke LH500, and a GenzBenz Shuttle. Out of these, which would you prefer, and why? I play with a mostly clean tone, and I will be buying a cabinet with the head. Thoughts?

I drive a Scion xB, so I could haul a freaking 8x10 if I traveled alone, but my band often combines gear in my car to go to gigs.

I'm working with $1000-$1200 of headroom. I'm playing worship music mostly. I really like tone along the likes of Onerepublic/Coldplay/etc. A strong clean tone.

I want a different head. The Ampeg SVT-450 just doesn't sound good to me.
