Love a burst.

@Ceebass that’s so awesome - brilliant.

It depends if the pickups are sealed units. next time you do a restring, unscrew the 4 mounting screws - see if the cover pulls out without the pickup magnets etc. If it does, it’d just be a matter of slipping the new cover on - nothing too hectic. If it doesn’t - leave as is.

No 😉

That’s the post I couldn’t find

The jam+ can be left with latency (why you’d choose that...🤷🏻‍♂️) or you can select zero latency. makes life so easy.

@Christine May know?

I know what you mean - I’ve actually always preferred solid cover pickups - for the same reason people use those ramp jobbies.

this has improved my recording life immeasurably... Just a lovely item. Although - thinking on, I wish I’d got one with an xlr mic in for recording acoustic...this can be circumnavigated... It is ace.

While I can’t afford to pursue the plan with the natural - I’m not destitute. When I owned my old MM - I used to tape over the bridge pickup polepieces, I seem to press into the strings and catch my fingertips on the raised polepieces. Now I’m older, and wiser - I can see the pickups aren’t sealed into the covers. So - to eBay... Had to buy two sets - but at £4 a Chuck, not bothered in the slightest. Probably won’t need the neck pickup ones - but might do if there’s any “clicking” from contact. my Sadowsky doesn’t have raised polepieces on the j pickup, so it doesn’t bother me - but on all of the stingrays I’ve owned it’s been an issue too. Just got soft hands 😂

I’m mellowing with age

The natural one has had a tough life. There is a plan in place and it’s all been agreed - then the inevitability of life finding a way to dash the plans... It’s not over though - just on hold.

Might be - you know it’s rude to mock the afflicted don’t you? 😉

@GisserD love that pro tone. Brother had a strat from the same series - great guitar.

Yeah - weird how some paint makes something stand out...

217th update of 2020 😉

Think the white one is 2004, natural 2003. Not even getting into trying to date them off serial numbers...the white one shipped neck off and had what looked like a date of October 04. So I’ll go with that.

Weird one. Natural has domed chrome “tele” knobs, the white one has flat top P Bass ones. Minor, insignificant difference. Also, natural has the decal up near the string tree like MM’s actual bass, the white one is in a more “standard” position. God bless Fender 🙄😂
