Thanks, I know DC resistance is not a "hotness" measure, I just included those stats in case there was something i missed.

Problem solved! I hope this might help someone else. Apparently you can mix drinks...but not P/U's...lol. I installed the Duncan Hot jazz in the bridge (along with the Hot P neck) and now with both vol all the way up, I get a standard P/J tone, with only slight vol loss as to be expected with...

Yes, I have done that. Didnt make a difference either way...which I thought was strange.

So I just broke down and ordered a Seymour Duncan Hot Jazz to match the Hot P I will see how that goes

Thanks for the response-I have tried p/u height adj. And yes if I roll off the Bridge vol from say 12 to 11 the tone comes back. I do understand the effect of parallel pickups and "drop" I have wired some of my other straight jazz basses to series/parallel with the pups. I guess what bugs me the...

Hello ALL Sorry this will be a long setup to ask this question. I have a Jazz bass that is set up with the Relentless P middle and a Model J in bridge, 500K CTS pots, and aside from from the slight vol drop normal when both vol up, this bass is phenomenal. So I have another Jazz I set up with...

Sorry, I already closed her up. I have a drawing for the SRX, drawing #WB020008 and it is basically the same wiring (EQB2DX) w/o bass boost/cut, treble boost/cut or balance. L2 hot from vol pot to IN of EQ & L3 (-) from vol pot in to EQ, then white OUT from EQ to jack, then of course the EQ has...

Thank you for the help! I got it fixed. turns out a pot can test good with a multimeter but not pass sound? I worked backwards from direct to jack from pups, I would have sound after one fix then it went away, left the pot out of the cavity and thumped on with finger, and that was it. I have...

One thing i forgot to mention that may be of help, the black and white wires from the vol pot go to the PC (seem to be input signal) and the other white wire on the the 3 wire plug (PC) seems to be the out put wire to jack-there is no continuity from white or black wire input to the white...

I will try that tonight. I have a bit more testing I am going to try. Thank you for the response

Thank you for the response, yes all the checking I did was with the cavity cover off, the "EQ" board has a piece of felt covering the solder joints, and I did move the PC board away from the "black" grounding paint just to eliminate any chance of grounding out. The MDB1 is the Mike Dantonio...

Hello, long time stalker-first time poster. Please excuse my forum etiquette, I am old and new to this. I have an Ibanez MDB1 that was working fine, then the other day I get it out and NO sound, check the battery first 9.4 volts, cable good, check jack switch for batt-it is working, check DC...
