The pot fitting is the most difficult thing you will find on this upgrade, when finding new ones, take measures of the old ones, alpha pot are the safest because is the brand used on the stock wiring I remember. For the preamp, modules are the easiest to fit, haven't tried any of the options...

Hi mate! I must say to take enought size measures on the upper horn cavity, where the preamp controls are. Factory pots there have too little space. Don't forget the mounting plate whete the pots are screwed, and the roller knob as well. My safest bet is first to compare the new preamp's pots...

You're welcome! you are lucky enought to find me on my day off hahaha The NPF is designed to work like Wal basses tone, when the knob is pushed in, there is no resonant peak at the LPF, it works just like passive tone but with a better and more uniform sweep, by pulling out the knob you just...

Hi mate, nice to hear that, I can't wait to see the end results! For the mods you want to do, first let me respass it: -Replace the passive tone knob for a Lusithand Single NFP. -Move the switch on/off of the Lusithand to the upper horn switch the Jaguar has. -Keep the rollers knobs for...

80's music, with male and female vocalists, that's so cool! In my case I use the Jag as main bass for the bands I'm in, the biggest one is playing as tour musician for a really big hip-hop / trap artist from my country (Spain), this case is very interesting because we (the band) had absolute...

Almost like mine too!! It has just a few mods. Congrats mate, gorgeous Jag! The Japanese ones are beasts, what kind of genres will you play with it?

The MiJ and CiJ are basically the same bass (made from 2005 to 2011 maybe). there were actually 2 generations of the bass between those years with almost no changes, just more color options, left-handed option, and more of that just the bridge pickup's placement (I believe) and how the volume...

The BT2 is a direct replacement, as well as the HB2 for standard tuners I'm still waiting to save some money and to record at least the first EP with the band, the mod project goes for quite long (a year or two) but I already found every part and even did a wiring schematic LOL.

This legend did a very comprehensive and visual demostration by using an oscilloscope about the different ways to wire the tone potentiometes, the other videos he has about guitar electronics are also great. I hope it helps

Yes, I can do all the routing by myself, the only thing is the matching headstock, I'll have to ask a friend for some help, but isn't that complicated. it will by next year's project, I'll go slow with it. It is 32", I'm used to the 34" of the CiJs but it isn't as drastic as the other even...

Hey people! I got to play for a new band a band in which most of the songs are in drop C, so I think it's time for me to stop abusing my pitch-shifter pedal and get a new bass for that purpose but without busting the bank. I was thinking that the newest Squier Affinity Jaguar Bass H could be a...

The diagrams on page 5 to 8 are just the same, I just colored the signal path in any possible switch configuration in order to help my friend understand the wiring. Also, the ground connection you see outside the middle switch, where the "GROUND OUT TO VO. POT" comes from, is the solder lug that...

You're welcome! this is not the first time I mod or make a custom wiring for CIJ/MIJ Jaguar basses so I have a plethora of hours trying to solve problems hahahaha. If you have any doubt about any component you want to order, if it is the right size for the cavity, etc, just tell me. Also I...

I'll give you some advice that would have saved me a lot of time when I rewired my Jag for the first time, I hope it helps you! About the switches, this exact Switchcraft model has the torque "mounted" as you can see on both screw holes, it makes the instalation way easier, specially if you...

I would say first to pay attention to all the controls, at least decide a couple of options for the pickups selectors, the preamp plate controls, etc.It is because I'm not sure how the stacked controls would work with a parallel/series switch, just because when in series, both pickups works more...
