Is that a mod you made? I have an MIA standard with the PJ configuration.

As @LeftyJ touched upon, it can be an active bass. It also has a series/parallel switch. And, I guess, a kill switch (which can easily unintentionally be activated 😅). These I would say are above what a standard jazz can do. On the things that are different, and perhaps less that a jazz can do: it only has a master volume and a master tone - and switch to turn on or off each pick up. So no VVT and no blending.

I think it is 16 years since the last album. Maybe 32 since the last good one 😂 I love the Cure. I was lucky to be at the Troxy for the launch gig.

I documented changing the pickups on my Dean Stylist semi here: https://diaryofabassguitar.wordpress.com/2013/04/04/new-pickups/

I’d be interested in the sight reading book.

It looks really good 👍

I may finally buy a bass VI!

I think it’s this one. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/LA-Select-Bass-Guitar-by-Gear4music-Denim-Burst/3L4K

I am not in London this weekend and will miss that. Enjoy!

There is an old Basschat thread here: With a link to: https://westoneguitars.net/basses/thunder/ (red bass further down). Has the same bridge but a single switch.

Same reason for Dyson - I now have a Shark and very happy with it. Same reason for Tate & Lyle - I try to always buy beet sugar (but it’s difficult!).

There is a thread about them on here.
