So that millennials like me will be able to afford them by the time I’m 50?

It was “built” in my garage the same way Frankenstein “built” his monster in his lab

Nameless, brandless, feckless, built in my garage... I’m just gonna seal it over top of the scuffs, pencil parks, and splattered shielding paint. Body and neck were cheap, volume pots are no-load, no tone control, neck pocket doesn’t quite fit, pick guard snapped while cutting the hole for the...

They basically sounded like the single coils, but no 60-cycle hum when soloed. And sorry, I don’t know of any places to hear any clips. Unfortunately I had to sell this bass a month after posting due to financial hardship

I used a collection of wiring diagrams I found via google, and a lot of trial and error. One critical component of this mod was the 3-position 4PDT switch

So I took advantage of a sale of The Fret Wire and bought their Rickenbacker 4003 bass copy kit. The neck position is getting a Rickenbacker HB1 humbucker, and the bridge position is routed for a Jazz style pickup. I’m here asking for suggestions on the best Jazz style HUMBUCKER (no single...

First off, beautiful bass!! And congrats on such a fine wife, you should be proud! June 21st, 2015, my then-fiancée and I exchanged vows. Later that year, I bought a 1991 Fender Prodigy bass on Reverb. Early that next Spring, I was forced to sell the bass due to financial troubles. I still wish...

I got it sorted, though I nixed the 4-position switch in favor of a traditional 3-position Tele blade switch. It simplified the wiring, and I was able to find a diagram for it easily online. I did need to adapt the color coding for the wires, so I’ll try to draw a diagram to post here later

Alright guys, I'm hoping someone on here can help me out. Can anyone provide me with a wiring diagram? Pickups: Fender Wide Range Humbucking Bass Pickups (4-Conductor) Selector Switch: Fender Telecaster 4-Position (Neck/Neck+Bridge/Bridge/Neck & Bridge in series) Controls: 1 Master Volume/Coil...

I dig the look of your new bass! Incidentally, do you still have the original pickups?

DISCLAIMER: I am an Uber-Spazz. I was walking through my living room the other day, and a commercial came on for Revlon advertising some kind of eyeliner or some poopie. And the song they used made me stop in my tracks. I literally stopped, turned around, and asked “WHAT... was THAT?!?” oliver...

Checking in several months after the fact, hoping to find some humbuckers for sale.

10 years later, lol... Billy Sheehan

My 2 cents, I’m a gear head and I can’t leave anything stock. Fender is the biggest name in music and replacement/aftermarket components are plentiful, and usually relatively affordable. My daily driver is a Mexican P-bass in Wine Red that I have Modified from the body up. I swapped the neck...

Just want to say that this might be the most informative video I’ve ever watched. Thank you
