Pick up height adjustment...... Good advice :)
hooky_lowdown replied to Mike Bungo's topic in Bass Guitars
You shouldn't have to do this. Set the pickup height, then you should adjust the eq on your amp to the room, add more treble for example. -
Leave them in an old mug, with some cola (enough to cover) over night, and wash off next morning.

For the past 18 months I've been seeing more and more developed AI being used across the Creative sectors, as well many others. With Chatgpt and the likes, it occurs to me it won't be too long before an AI generated pop song will top the charts, which'll no doubt open the flood gates to further AI hits. And an AI hit factory. This will inevitably lead to songwriters becoming obsolete, with AI writing pop hits in seconds. I know this is being developed and has been worked on for a while, but I believe its only time before the songwriter will become a dead art, surpassed by AI. Fortunately live artists and bands will remain, including the low end folk. Although having said that the digital ABBA gigs leaves food for thought. 🫢

hooky_lowdown replied to Mike Bungo's topic in Bass Guitars
You adjust the pickups height to whatever sounds best to you. The Fender measurements are purely a guide, don't get that mixed up with fact! So set the pickups fairly low and raise each in turn to whatever sounds best to you. You'll know if you've gone too high as the sound will start to wobble, then screw back down a little. Strings, pickups, neck wood etc all plays a part, so tune it to whats best to your own ears. -

P bass suddenly has low to zero output
hooky_lowdown replied to Mornats's topic in Repairs and Technical
Cut up something like a business card, put a small piece at each end underneath the pickup covers. It'll raise the plastic cover enough to level the poles. Also, in 2015 there was no Fender Player, it was Standard then! -

This. You'll have to message the guy fast. Its lightweight, PJ pickups so good variety in tones available, and cheap... only it is active, so will need a battery added to play amplified, but perfect to begin or learn on accoustically.
