No output from P Bass with new scratchplate
gary mac replied to Jono Bolton's topic in Repairs and Technical
I have had that before, try moving the input socket around so that it's not touching the sides. Worked for me. -
What Lozz said I used my 66 at band rehearsal last night. It just sounded superb and felt lovely, didn't want the session to end. Shame to not gig it really but would be nervous using it at pub gigs.

Paul purchased my Squier 50's Classic Vibe. A pleasure to deal with from start to finish, a total gent.

This discussion could and probably will go on for a good while yet, almost certainly no conclusion will be drawn and the OP will still have the same opinion. I would just like to add, that today I have been playing my 66 P and yet again just opening the case made me feel happy. It also felt and sounded (to me) very lovely. Also I have been playing my 2013 Dingwall P bass and that was every bit as enjoyable. I'm sure my post has been of no use whatsoever

[quote name='pmjos' timestamp='1414430186' post='2589198'] The thing for me about vintage basses is to remember that when you by a 60's instrument you are within spitting distance of the very beginnings of modern music. The music of our generation was truly born out of the efforts of a tiny handful of inovators like Leo Fender (for one) who made something almost completely new. For me the Fender P & J basses are at the heart of that. Some people feel that way about Gibson or RIcks. These designs hit the nail on the head so firmly that their design remains almost unchanged. I guess being born in the early 60's I grew up with these instruments at the heart of my earliest musical memories. I'm lucky enough to have a vintage P and soon (all being well) a J. When you pick up a 50 year old instrument that has been crafted well, looked after for all its life and pick it up to play you feel something. Crank that old P up with the tone rolled off just a bit and it growls punk tones at you, play it further up the neck and even with the tone rolled all the way back you still get distinct clear warm notes. You will pay a lot of cash to get that in a new instrument, and all it will be is a facsimilie of the 'real thing'. I own old basses becuase they sound wonderful, they have lasted the journey, they will remain precious. They are the heritage of every line of this and every other bass blog. Its an honour to keep and look after one, even if though its taken most of my life before I could aford one. [/quote] Nicely said
