    I've have Fernandes Gravity deluxe on here for sale ... I don't think it's ever gonna sell:(...I love the style great through neck with low action alder body thing is I've really fallen out of love with the sound . It's got emg Jazz style pups with the Fernandes active eq . I'm back to a sandberg tt Jazz style bass now so this will be my backup .. My question is "do I change the active circuit or do I change the pups ...or both even as I'm looking for more of a growl from this bass ..

    Hi mate ..cheers .
    Done as he suggested and defietly improved the active ..though the blend is now scratchy grounding the treble and bass chsnged nothing ,I'm wondering if its interference from a poorly wired house I also have solar panels 10 yards away and power lines ,I've heard these can interfere though I'm not sure if it has any relevance or just rubbish ...

    Thought I'd got a bargain of fleabay ...a epiphone thunderbird pro v...looks great only wish I'd look into it more ...first gig I've noticed a lie volume on the "b" string though the "g"..seems fine ,I'd heard a lot of the earlier ones were fitted with 4 string pups by mistake :(.. The bigger problem is the electrics..earthing problems and there's wiring not connected in the back ie 2 red wires that have been shielded in manufacture that are from the pickups ..I assume these should be connected to the battery red ..
    My question is any other thunderbird owners had this problem and do you have a wiring spec or picture of how this should be wired ...
