The "hole" near the attachment arm, isn't a blemish.... it's for adjusting the neck angle. I should have mentioned in my first post, that the necks on these are removable, for packing down smaller for taking on tour / air transport etc. But the beauty of the system is that you can finely adjust the neck angle to set up to your preference, and it's really quick & easy to do. -

Sorry to hear about your possible redundancy. I had the same thing going on, and it ended up dragging on for years - I feel your pain! Anyhow, GLWTS, and a wave from just up the road in Barry. -

I fancy a pickup change. Jazz type, passive humcancelling?
Marc S replied to fretmeister's topic in Repairs and Technical
When I owned a Jazz bass, my favourite ever sound was when I fitted some old (ish) DiMarzio pickups. They were just brilliant. Definitely more "oomph" than any other passive Jazz pups- but they had a lovely warm sound, which seemed to produce the whole range really well. Plenty of low end, punch at the top end, and mids that cut through well. Whenever I played that bass, and in several bands / genres, it just sat nicely in the mix. Wish I hadn't sold that bass... Re pickup height - the luthiers I've spoken to, and the ones I watch regularly on YouTube all say the same thing - don't set the pickup height too close to the strings.... so adjust that carefully. Let us know how you get on 😀 -

For some reason, I can't seem to add more than one photo attachment at a time - so apologies, I'll add more in separate posts. Controls are: Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass. Power for the electronics is via PP3 9v battery
