    Custom/OEM built to spec necks

    Thanks for the info and that is what I am looking for. If it is in the ballpark of the Warmoth but to my specs that is great. I know time is money and I know a good job costs but I also know my budget and some of the other companies out there have minimums that I cannot reach/afford at the...

    Custom/OEM built to spec necks

    I am looking for someone that can build necks to my specs. I am looking for someone that can make an F style neck but basically just need it to be 22 frets with no overhang. Who would you recommend for this that will not require a minimum and who is priced reasonably. I saw the list in this...

    Phase issue j/mm

    Thank you and I will give this a try. Doing this will not make it self out phase when soloing just the mm pickup?

    Phase issue j/mm

    I installed a jazz pup to my SUB stingray. When I have both pickups on it sounds like there is a phase issue. The j pup is a bartolini single coil. Should I wire the ground shielding wire to the hot input and the hot pup wire to ground? If I do this will it affect the j pup when soloed...

    P and j bass mid frequency focus point

    Does anyone know what the mid frequency focus point is for a p bass and a j bass? For the j I am meaning when both pickups are on evenly.

    Need help with mm bass pickup series/single/parallel switch wiring

    Thanks for this info. Any suggestions why I cannot get a series setup to connect properly with these switches? I have tried 3 or 4 wiring options and the series always sounds thin and too much treble with little bass and low mids. It is crazy too me. I have even changed switches to see if that...

    I’m back again on this. This time I have tried the attached and in single coil mode they work fine but trying series it still sounds wrong and thin with more treble and way less bass and mids. Now with this being said I did check the magnet polarity and I feel it is reverse from Bartolini and I...
