Hey all,
Ran into an awesome deal for a vintage EB-0 project ('72 with a single mudbucker in the sweet spot) that needs the mudbucker and some hardware replaced. Does anyone make a legitimate "vintage sounding" mudbucker that I could use as a replacement? The DiMarzio is out, I want something that exemplifies the old vintage EB sound and I dont think the DiMarzio is it. Also, I dont necessarily want to spend the cash on a project bass if the only options I have are the DiMarzio and the Epi Mudbucker sound. I heard ARTEC used to make a good replica, but I think it has been discontinued.
My main goal is to achieve the old Zombies tone (think "Brief Candles"... which is a song for those of you who are not familiar with the Zombies). Will this bass take me there? Also, my appologies if this has already been posted, I spent much time trying to find a similar thread but have been largely unsuccessful in doing so. Hope this didn't cause any duplicates.
Thanks all,
J.J.
