Have a question about the bridge pickup location on my -02.

Are the coils spaced in the 60's & 70's jazz locations? It seems like a logical idea, but I don't have a jazz here to compare it to. It also looks like the bridge coil might split the difference between the two spacing's and the neck coil be a little further "in" than the 60's location.

Any input?
 
Texan, how would you compare your -01 to your -02?

Totally different beasts. With the stock pre and pups the 55-01 is totally modern and HiFi. I got a great deal on US Bart's and the 918NTMB pre and the sound is thicker and has more punch and oomph.

When it comes to the 55-02's, I do not like the LH3 setups. I went through a couple before I found one with the Bart setup. The 55-02 with Bart's is not quite as punchy as the MK5's. Its tamer and more polite.

I can get any sound that I need out of either bass but if I want a more aggressive sound, I go with the 55-01. If I need something not as aggressive, I go with the 55-02. Don't think that I'm saying the 55-02 is tame, its a beast in its own right.

If you are wanting something totally different, I put Chi-Sonics in my passive 44-60 and those are a totally different ballgame. I can't imagine what the Chi's sound like with a pre because they are ball busters passive.

I think this is the basic design concept of the 55-02. To my ears you really can get close to either the 60's or 70's jazz sound. Stingray as well and p bass. Its a swiss army knife of a bass.
 
Such a classic pair, I love the natural JO!



Nothing like CAR...



Nice collection man, and the dog is a keeper too...

Is she the best Shepherd for metal?

BTW, that 212 of yours killed at my last show. I'm hooked on Aguilar fo sho!

Some great metal comes out of Germany, so I would say yes. The funny thing is that she is more disciplined when I give her commands in German.

That 212 is YOURS now. It was a great cab, but I just could not bond with that mid bump. I'm a Bergantino guy. I'm glad that you like it!
