I like to hear [b][u]THE[/u][/b] bass for all that it is, passive for me every time. There isn't an active circuit made IMHO that doesn't sound 'artificially enhanced' (a bit like boobs really ) however you set it.
Like a quality HiFi turntable/arm/cartridge, you get the sound from the source as it's intended, with passive.

I made a Jazz loom for Matt + a little repair job on his P-lyte loom. He's a great guy to deal with, lot's of spot on comms & instant payment.

You'll need a tone cap in there - or maybe not - if you leave it out on all your basses & some string to tie the pots & jack together with
Should be a nice bass
- "multi-ply mahogany tone wood" -
I remember Gibson got into trouble for buying & using protected species of rare & valuable exotic timbers - but now 'plywood'?

Hi Chris - I think your '57 link is missing something it takes me to my home page
The '69 looks lovely though
My pleasure to start a thread for Joe, he contacted me re. a wiring kit for his Jazz bass with a Volume/Blend/Tone set up.
Great communications & instant payment, all round good guy to deal with, no problems.

Shirley it depends on the strings - some you have to cut, some you don't.
I rarely cut any off except maybe a little off the E for Fender headstocks, I like plenty of winds down the post but never overlapping or bunching.
