I'm sure I'm WAY oversimplifying something here, but... every P pickup I've ever tried overhyped the E and A strings and underhyped the D and G. I know the usual discussion is around it being the fault of the strings, but what if it isn't? I got lured into this line of thinking by a recent...

I just got a Charvel San Dimas Pro Mod, and the stock pre is underwhelming. I like the idea of the "cranked Haz" as an active option, but would like a way to roll off highs in passive mode (and maybe also in active mode?) Weird idea or not? I figure it's pickup blend > passive tone >...

Herd-thinning: The Hodad is stock, with the Switch-O-Matic giving you all the pickup options. Strung with rounds, brand unknown. A little bit of bridge bend, but not much - plus the bridge on these has saddle-height screws, so it's pretty much a non-issue. The DC is strung...

Body: Fender Roadworn Mike Dirnt, factory relic'ed white over ash. Routed for a Dimarzio Relentless neck pickup, but this could be hidden with the stock pickguard (I don't have one to offer). Includes shipping to CONUS: SOLD: Neck with tuners: $350 Body, unloaded except for vintage-style...

Code: GIFTS - picked up a few things at a nice discount.

Purchased right here (original thread), but I'm done with build projects for a while. Beautiful one-piece lightweight (4.6 lbs.!) swamp ash body, no finish. Drilled for string-thru body, '51-style bridge hole pattern. $275 PayPal F&F, shipped CONUS. No trades, thanks.

Lightweight swamp ash, which they don't appear to sell any more. Mary Kay-ish transparent white finish, very light relic - finish crazing, but no manufactured wear spots. Guessing on weight, but the pencil in the neck pocket implies 4 lbs. 11 oz? One small chip on the butt end, indicated in...

No introduction needed - the Noble magic is well-documented at this point. In perfect working order, has velcro on the bottom (I'll do my best to de-fuzz before sending). One tiny mark, indicated in photo (follow my finger). Includes the case, candy, and a voltage-doubler cable for any 18V...

*EDIT: now just straight sale (I have an XL on the way) Stormtrooper white with Pedalnetics double switch (Ian Martin Allison style). A bunch of cool presets included - Ian's bundle, a few from the Dr. Tone page, Janek synth patches... A nick in the paint on the front edge, as shown in the...

On hold pending payment My attempt to build an early-50s style Fender to my exact taste. Light, easy player... and it just sits. So, take advantage of someone else putting the pieces together. Specs: MJT ash body with arm and belly cuts Nordstrand hum-cancelling pickup Retro-something...

ETA: Ended up parting out. Body available here: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fender-roadworn-mike-dirnt-part-out-plus-gotoh-dimarzio.1640618/ *** Sort of a thought exercise: what if Billy had started his bass-mod journey a decade earlier? I loved the result, but others are getting way more...

In excellent shape, will include pickguard and original bridge. Hipshot bridge gives enough adjustability to actually intonate correctly on the G string (common issue with the stock bridge). Only issue is the Epiphone "E" is missing from the pickguard (I might actually have another if you want...

More emptying of the bins. Prices negotiable, deals to be had if you want more than one. All prices include shipping. Paypal F&F. Pic 1: ZVex hand-painted Super-Duper 2 in 1. One of the old-school numbered Myrold pedals. Clean gain or master-volume dirt. $100 Rockstock two-button footswitch...

Last of the affordable American Fenders. Exact year escapes me, but post-2006 (no skunk stripe, hence has the graphite neck reinforcement). Came to me with a dead neck pickup, so I swapped in a pair of Suhr singles that absolutely kill in this bass. Happy to include the original pickups if you...

One of the best-feeling necks Fender ever made, on one of their most versatile basses. Not their rarest color, but close. In excellent shape, all electronics functioning perfectly - there is a one-wire mod to make the preamp pots more responsive along their entire range, which I've already done...

SOLD 2 x Bada$$ II, grooved saddle version. Fender high-mass off a Nate Mendel signature. $50 each shipped

Assorted Jazz and Precision 'guards I've accumulated over the years. They are all varying degrees of "used", with pick and fingernail marks accumulated over time. $20 each. MOP Jazz is sold

All prices include shipping: DiMarzio Relentless middle, new in box $100 Squier 50's pickup $25 SOLD: Fender/Duncan Nate Mendel Quarter Pounder w/electronics $100 SOLD: Prima Guitars P-bass pickup - 70's (hot-ish) wind, never installed. $100 SOLD: Fender Blacktop double jazz pickups $50 SOLD...

I have an ash body, to which I'd like to apply a finish similar to this ESP: I've heard of using black dyes on ash; I presume that goes on first, then topcoats of some sort that don't get buffed out? *I've used the Search function, but couldn't put together all of the pieces to achieve the...

Just installed these (both neck and middle), and I'm trying to ballpark pickup height. Anyone got any tips, in particular on neck pickup height? For reference, I use the Fender guidelines (press on last fret, measure from pickup cover to bottom of string). I'm guessing there are enough...

Seems like folks are putting just about every vintage preamp into a Hammond box these days… anyone doing a vintage Kustom tuck and roll circuit?

I know it'd be difficult given the array of radii out there. I want 7.25" radiused pickups for my MIJ Jag bass; I don't want exposed poles. Flat covers are out there on Ebay occasionally, but that makes setup weird. Even a 3D printer file would be helpful - I can get that printed off at our...

If I run the Noble doubler cable to my Pigtronix, it powers it up but kills the power to any other pedals connected to the Noble. When I unplug the doubler, there's a squelchy noise and the other pedals come back online. The doubler cable works as expected on my Cali76 CB - other pedals stay...

Did you buy more watts that you ended up needing? Love the Legacy tone, but would like a little cash back? Let's talk. Gigs may actually be appearing again, so I have another Barefaced BB3 coming and I want big watts on top of them. Got the 800 in trade, and I love it. Very light use (like...

I had tacked this question on to the original PCB thread, but realized that it was in the Bazaar, and probably wasn't getting eyeballs, so I'll copy it over to here: Trying to wire one of these (UncleFluffy preamp) in to my Sub5, AND implement a push-pull series-parallel switch. I did this once...

As pics will show, this clearly has stories to tell... Serial number puts its DOB around 1985-1986. At some point, it was de-fretted very well, with black filler lines. I think the board was re-radiused at the same time - it's for sure not 7.25" any more. 9.5...

In really good shape - a couple of extra holes over the pickup where someone put a thumbrest. Upgraded the pickup to an Ulyate, but I'll include the original. Wearing D'Addario Balanced-Tension rounds right now. Only selling because I lucked into a good deal on a MusicMan USA Sub5. A...

Had the parts laying around, so I threw this together. It's my take on if Sheehan had grown up playing Motown: Squier Mike Dirnt neck, Fender Roadworn Mike Dirnt P pickup added with no-holes covers, series/parallel push-pull on the neck pickup. Only thing missing is stereo jacks. Currently...

If there's a more mojo'ed body on TB right now, I can't find it: This came into my life years ago, with its original maple fretless neck (long gone) and a set of EMGs (also gone). I replaced the pickups with the Fralins you now see, with a simple V/V wiring. There's an extra hole in the...

I'm looking for a no-holes cover with an 11"-radiused top, to make it ramp-like. I'm useless when it comes to rendering. I'm sure someone not-me could draw this in 5 minutes... does anyone do this sort of thing?

Grindy rock/punk context. Would be replacing a couple of Mesa Diesel 1x15s currently loaded with Faital 15PR400s (like the tone, not crazy about the beaming.) I figure a couple of 2x10s gives me slightly more cone area. Would also like to stack vertically, get them closer to the ears...

The pics tell the story - some pick marks on the 'guard, but the body itself is very clean. I've tried to capture notable dings. Price includes CONUS shipping. Update: if my bathroom scale method is to be believed: me holding body - me not holding body = 7.2 lbs. fully loaded (bridge...

Never velcro'ed. I still have the box somewhere, which will be included. I may even have an 18V Voodoo Y-cable for it, which I would also throw in. Price includes CONUS shipping.

I say "like new" because the speakers have been out of their boxes, put in a cab, and tested, but they literally aren't even broken in yet. Upgrade your old Mesa 15" Diesel/Road Ready cabs, throw together a DIY build, etc. - these drivers are versatile, sound great, and can take whatever you...

Traded for this on a whim (right here, actually), would like to get back into a fretted neck on this particular bass. I *think* I'm reading the serial correctly. This is a weird one - it doesn't appear to be defretted, yet has black lines and the dots are where they would be on a fretted...

Bulletproof, do-anything rig with plenty of power and headroom on tap. One-handed carry if you're not using the shoulder strap. SOLD: Fender TBP-1: plenty of love for these right here on TB. Borrows from the Alembic FX-1 (tube front end, Fender tone stack), with a few extra tricks up its...

Plenty of hype over these and their cousin the Studio Bass over in the Amps forum. Super Twin chassis mounted in a Mojotone head cabinet, just like everyone else does. Described as "2/3 of an SVT in every way, including weight". 180W from six 6L6s is PLENTY of power to keep up with loud...

Bought this a million years ago, never installed it. I have no idea what to ask for it, so I'll start at $50, see what happens.

I dunno. Like, ten bucks each, plus five to ship CONUS? Buy more and I get more agreeable... Various Fender P and J guards in various states. Used, I repeat, used, except for the one Jazz in plastic. The two MM guards were included with my USA Sub4 - the original fake diamond-plate, and the...

I was reorganizing the garage and realized how ridiculous my parts bins were these days. Time to liquidate! Prices include shipping to CONUS. Going to be listing other parts too... SOLD: Moon lined fretless - Tele headstock, but rounded heel like a Precision or Jazz. An old Ebay purchase...
