Hi Kev

Really glad it got to you in one piece and on time (it's a sad reflection of the courier industry that constant hope and eternal gratitude are required of customers!).

Now, the pickguard screws! I took off the pickguard yesterday to check the solder joints - not pretty, but functional - before I sent, and about 20 minutes after it was picked up I had that worrying "sh*t, did I put the screws back in" moment! If I didn't, please accept my sincere apologies and I'll get a set to you ASAP. If I did, just another sign of old age creeping in I guess!

Enjoy the bass, it's the type of Precision I used to love, loud, bright, zingy and responsive. I've become more docile over time and now have an old '62 RI with very heavy flats and a rather muted, if not rather toneful, output :)

Pleasure doing business with you mate

Chris

And yes, that bass does not need a J-PUP :)

You're right of course, it doesn't [i]need [/i]a Jazz pickup. It's spectacular as it is. When I saw it first it reminded me of my '78, lovingly christened 'Deedee' by a former bandmate:

It's just that I'm loving my PJ at the moment.

No offence intended, YMMV etc!
