Hi all!
I'm looking to route an American Standard Jazz for a neck (not bridge) p-pickup. I prefer the feel of a jazz neck and body and don't want to have to swap out a J-neck onto a p-body. This way, the route will be covered up by the pick guard and you won't even tell the difference.
What are people's thoughts on this?
Primarily i have three questions:
1) How will this affect the re-sale value of the bass?
2) Where should the placing be of the p-pickup? If it is place vertically in same place as the Jazz pickup, the route should be fairly minimal...
3) Where would the p-pickup be placed dimensionally on an authentic P-bass, and where would this line up on the J? I want to get the tone of the p-pickup as close as possible to the P.
I appreciate everyone's input!
