    Also looks like all the grounds are going to the 2nd volume rather than the tone. Could be your issue. Was thre a battery under the pickguard?

    PM this guy: http://basschat.co.uk/user/7835-kiogon/ he'll sort you out with a wiring loom for whatever you need.

    Gotcha. So really there's no way to tell how well 2 pickups will mix from the specs on their site?

    Hey guys. I have a couple of basses with the PJ configuration. I want to go for noiseless (stacked) J pickups so I thought about replacing the P pickup as well and get a nice balanced set. I know from previous posts that buying say a Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound P-Bass pickup and J-Bass pickup will yield a stronger sound from the P-Bass pickup. Obviously that is due to a P pickup being naturally more powerful in output to the J pickup and it being further down the neck where it gets a stronger signal from more string vibration. I hope my understanding of the above is correct, if not feel free to correct me . So, since I'm replacing both pickups, how do I choose a set that are better matched or balanced with each other? Currently I find that when I put my J pickup in with the P pickup that it brings the overall volume down slightly and gives a slight more treble to the sound. I've looked at the specs on Seymour Duncans site but to me the SPB3 12.5k should be higher output than the SPB2 22.4k, but it doesn't look that way, am I missing something? If you guys need more info from me just ask. Thanks

    That is amazing! I love it. If only you took credit cards, lol

    Cool. I'll give them a shout.

    I just checked. They seem to be .100, .85, .70, .45 Will see if I can get a set of prosteels to match that or similar. Would contact Fender but doubt Fender UK or USA would know as it's Fender Japan.

    Hi Ed_S Thank you so much for the offer of the strings. That is really kind of you. There is not need though, but thank you any way I think you may be right int hem being thinner. I have a set of digital calipers I'll take home to find out. I too am starting to use Pro-Steels. I love the ping you get from them and it seems to last well into the break in period. Hope you enjoy your Aerodyne, am loving mine Thanks again.

    Hi all. Not sure if anyone can help. I bought an Aerodyne bass last week. It's one of the new blue factory special runs made in Japan. My question is, what strings are on it as standard from the factory. I don't think they're Fender strings as they all have brass ball ends. The shop didn't change the strings, so it is 100% as it came. I just think these strings are great and they sound brilliant. Would love to buy some more. Any help would be fantastic. Thanks.

    Hi Dom. As it says above, it's sold. Sorry.

    Bump for friday.

    Tonci was superb. Sent me a quick email about my Nate Mendel bass and even helped me sort out the postage. He even offered to give me more towards postage after we'd agreed on a price as it had turned out to be more expensive (I refunded him as he was being too nice [size=4] ). Bass arrived and he let me know straight away. All I can say is he's such a nice guy and I hope to deal with him again someday. [/size] [size=4]Tonci, thanks for being a pleasure to deal with. Enjoy your new bass.[/size] [size=4]Thanks, Grant.[/size]

    Bump. Still for sale and now on Ebay also.
  18. sirmuppet
    Thanks guys.
  19. sirmuppet
    Bump, still for sale.

    I think it is indeed Agave Blue. I checked fender.com on wayback machine and that was the only blue available on the MIM standard series in 2002. Thanks, I try to show as many pics as possible. I do the same when I put stuff on Ebay too. I tend to find it lets people see exactly what they're buying. Plus if it were me I'd feel more at ease seeing as much as I could on what I was looking to buy, especially when I can't see it in person. Good to know people notice the effort
  21. sirmuppet
    HA HA... Yeah I think I might

    Hi tom1946. I got my trusty Stew Mac gauge out and it comes in at a fraction over 2mm at the 12th fret on the bass side. Not sure of you can tell from the picture. Hope this helps.

    I know what you mean. I looked at the previous prices they've gone for on here and some have met £550! Considering Fender have stopped putting the Badass bridges on their models I'm wondering if the models that have them will go up in value in the future? Only time will tell I guess.
