    Bartolini B-Axis pickups don’t fit

    I had an SX jazz with stock pups, swapped them for Ultra Jazz’s, no problem with the fit. Tried to swap in the Barts, neck was fine but the bridge was too big for the route. Left the UJ’s in and the Bart’s are still in the box waiting another project. :)

    The Mediocre Bassist Club

    In your neck of the woods you should get many years of use from it, it’s the handiest tool I own. If you have a large area to clear I recommend a 24” wide one.
