    NBD Squier Debut Series…

    I do like the bass, but the output jack is horrible now on mine. Does not connect with the cable at all. Has anyone put the debut neck on a sonic body?

    Fender Squier Sonic Series

    Where are people getting the replacement pick guards for the Sonic P? I bought one from stratospher but it needs a lot of work to fit over the pickups properly. I did my easy way out and put Gold Vinyl over the stock guard.

    Squier Debut P-Bass or Squier Sonic P-Bass?

    After some very cheap mods. My Debut is still fun to play and I like the simplicity and price. I would buy another if someone gave me $130 in Amazon coin. Cheers either one will fit the bill

    Okay I acquired a vintage white pickguard . @covermego has convinced me I can move the pickups the small amount it takes to make it fit. 😧 drilling holes in this mod will be necessary. Here are a couple pics, I ask you all what you think? I’m on the fence.

    @covermego I really appreciate your enthusiasm for building exactly what you want. That’s exactly why I took a chance on the Debut. Long story short , I took an SX telecaster and modded it to exactly what I wanted for not much money.. it took me over two years before I was happy. I hope to do...

    The debut is a good starting point for modding. I have enjoyed mine.

    I may have found my own solution. Here on TB. My tone pot may be shorting out by touching the cavity tape. I will check it out another day…… https://www.talkbass.com/threads/tone-knob-has-become-a-second-volume-knob-on-vintage-p.1545055/

    Okay so I went back under the pickguard and reapplied tape. The hum is gone or at least very very minimal. but I have another problem now. The Tone knob needs to be engaged a small amount in order for me to get any volume. If the tone knob is turned to 0%. I get no volume. It’s not really a...

    Thanks all for the great advice. I guess feedback may have been the wrong word. It was humming more than normal when I put the tone knob at 100%. I am learning this DIY stuff on my guitars. The info from @MadJack about grounding the shielding tape. Overlapping it. I will definitely go back...

    Alright team. Since I’ve plugged in and played after the pickguard change. My feedback is comical. Amp feedback when I’m not touching the guitar. Yall think I should get back under the hood and tape all around the cavity? …. Or install the EMG GZR PU’s and tape the cavity. ? Im pretty new to...

    I finally snuck in some time to change the looks of my Debut. I am severely outnumbered this week in my house. My wife, daughter and two nieces. As my wife was reading them Harry Potter I snuck away. Anyway. I hope y’all like it, I’ve never attempted anything like this to a PG before. Car...

    Same with my vol & tone knobs. The tone has full range. The Volume really only changes the last quarter turn. Then I plugged in a new higher priced cable and used a boost pedal. That seemed to allow me to have more volume control.

    NBD Squier Debut Series…

    Yes still stock strings. I have some EB's that will be going on when I start the pickguard operation. Finding time between work and kids is the only hold up. But like I wrote. I was very pleasantly surprise with how it played out of the box after just a tune up.

    NBD Squier Debut Series…

    I have made some bad purchases in my 40 years of mediocre guitar playing. This is not one of them. Straight out of the box when I got home and plugged it in…tuned it up…action & intonation squared up…no bad fret edges. I may have lucked out. But I instantly put some basses up for sale because...

    @MadJack Thanks for the image. Looks tasty my guy. I usually buy from local dealer and ask them to help me with any work done to the guitars. This time I may try doing all the mods myself. First let’s see when it arrives if it’s in playable condition. Should arrive Tuesday -Thursday

    Yes Sir, I can't decide which color Vinyl I'm going to wrap around it. I'm leaning towards Gold. I like the look on the Black and Gold Fender Kingman, unfortunately I did not like playing it. I'm not moving pickups and that mess...

    I am really loving this little acoustic bass. I added a thumb rest. From thumb rocker I had laying around. I do wish the clearance was better past the 12th fret. Possibly need to buy its big bother. Acoustic bass for the win. The built in tuner is genius

    I just couldn't resist and ordered last night. Just wanted to have another small fun bass to have for couch playing or outdoor sitting. I have a very similar Ibanez Parlor guitar that has held up great through the years. For the price I decided to pull the trigger. Excited for it to arrive...

    Squier 40th Anniversary Vintage and Gold Editions

    I can’t even find these basses on Sweetwater site. But my local GC had a red 40th Pbass vintage OMG I won’t lie the playability was so nice. I should definitely buy it.

    The Epiphone Embassy bass is the best bass currently on sale and I'm tired of pretending it isn't

    Thanks. Unfortunately (notice the crutches) my savings will be going towards my Torn ACL surgery. Stay off trampolines at your kids bday parties. It happened a week after I got the Embassy. Luckily I have these for all the down time to keep me occupied.

    The Epiphone Embassy bass is the best bass currently on sale and I'm tired of pretending it isn't

    I walked into a Pawn shop a few weeks ago and scored this one for $125. It plays great after a clean up and lowering the action. and I love the way it looks with my SX P bass. Both look vintage. I added the pickup cover because WTH. Not a lot spent on either of my Basses.

    The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

    I found this Epiphone Embassy in a pawn shop for $125. I cleaned it up and added the pickup cover just because I had one laying around. Pretty cool bass. And light.

    I finally realized this little Bass has really been the first one I grab to play at home. Finally pulled off the bread bag tags and installed some real strap buttons. first mod. It’s just fun to have an easy little bass guitar around to play.
