BTW....thanks for the comments, guys. I'm glad someone else is finding the exercise at least vaguely worthwhile.

Reggae/Dub Tone Test - Hofner vs. P vs. J (with clips)
- Thread starter JimFog
- Start date
My preferred recipe for fattening up a J with flats is to roll off the bridge PUP halfway and to only roll off the tone a bit. Clarity and articulation, not too much growl, and increased low mids due to interaction of PUPs. YMMV of course.
Out of the blue, a deal came up on these black Hofner Ignition Club basses, and I've ben missing mine since I sold it not long after doing these clips. New one is on it's way to me, as we speak. Can't wait to get that deep, massive tone back!
