    J+P in one?

    So a J is single coil. A P is humbucking. Could a J have two coils (I have seen these so know they exist) but with a kind of coil tap so that I had access to the correct J windings and the correct P windings? I am aware that there is an element of compromise about all this. Perhaps I should just S1 it and get over myself. I am now getting into dangerous territory that I only 20% understand so forgive me for any crass stupidity

    [quote name='owen' timestamp='1351064115' post='1846707'] This sounds interesting, but I cannot see the pic Is it just me? [/quote] It was obviously just me. It is there in all it's glory on my computer at work.

    [quote name='Meddle' timestamp='1351022607' post='1846398'] I stealthed a J pickup into my P bass at the 24th fret position. I chiselled out the cavity deep enough to hide a J pickup (and a bunch of Strat pickup magnets to boost the range of the pickup). [/quote] This sounds interesting, but I cannot see the pic Is it just me?

    Thanks for all the comments. I guess the obvious thing to do is push the pickup in my P right down and suck it and see. I will not be ruining anything which exists, I am just thinking about doing a build (as in someone doing it for me, obv!).

    [quote name='gjones' timestamp='1351002097' post='1846061'] I haven't got a clue but I had a listen to you tunes on soundcloud and I really like them. Especially the first one 'don't leave your joy behind' great vocals. [/quote] Oh........ ah........... shucks....... thanks

    J+P in one?

    So, because I seem to have too much time on my hands I am thinking about basses. What would be nice would be a J with a P pickup as well. So far so good. However, what I would like would be the P pickup to not be visible - aesthetics and all that. If I routed the back of a body so that I could have a P pickup [i]just[/i] hiding beneath the surface of the body would it function properly or is this just another stupid idea in my huge catalogue of stupid ideas?
  7. Japanese made Squier J. 3 T sunburst, black scratchplate. Good nick, few dings which I will picture later. I am struggling to price this (selling on behalf of someone else). It is a Japanese J without the magic big "F" on the headstock but it has the "S" which makes is an "F" really - kind of - you know what I mean. It plays nicely and does all a J should. I am not sure about the age so will get onto that this evening. I will say £290. I guess the market will decide. It comes with strap and gig bag.
  8. I have a Realist and a Fishman Platinum Pro pre-amp I am about to put up for sale. £90 for each if you (or anyone else) is intersted.
  9. Big power stages = big tone. Sad but true.
  10. Pickups. End of. I have had expensive basses squeal. I have had cheap basses squeal. I have had SC basses TOTALLY shielded. Still squeal. I have had HB basses squeal. We have one in church so I get to experiment with this every week
  11. The whole concept works for me.
  12. I just want a J5 in black with matching headstock that has been reliced. Or one in Oly White. Is it so much to ask?
  13. [quote name='njr911' timestamp='1350421329' post='1838749'] I'd love a Bravewood. Old guitars are just nice objects for some reason. And the closest I can afford these days would b a relic. I have been fortunate to own a 61 jazz master but wouldn't want to take an irreplaceable guitar to the pub. [/quote] I had a Bravewood P and have an old J finished in Nitro which is well knackered. The Bravewood pushed all my old Fender buttons completely.
  14. I'll take both the Yam humbuckers. PM me the PP details. Ta.
  15. I am not for a second dissing the small and lightweight thing. I have totally signed up to it and could not haul those two cabs around even if I wanted to. I am not looking at a neo vs heavy scenario. It was just exciting to have a wall of air moving. I'm sure 2 lightweight 2x15" cabs would do exactly the same thing.
  16. Last Friday I was messing and hooked up a TF750 to a Warwick 6x10 and a Boogie 1516. Much as I love the whole concept of small and light and super xmax and all that stuff, it really is not the same as lots of speakers pushing a lot of air
  17. ALLRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!
  18. I might well be wrong, but does this not do 2 Ohm as well?

    Owen - Feedback

    [quote name='owen' timestamp='1329917855' post='1549658'] I have fancied one of Jule's preamps, and here he is posting in my feedback. Is it a sign? Should I just buy one? [/quote] it was a sign so I bought one.
