NBD (kind of): red Squier Jazz

I recently bought this '94 Korean (Cort factory) Squier Jazz. The electrics malfunctioned but was pretty sweet otherwise, with a pretty nice neck.

So after a few weeks, I finally got on with it.

Pickguard was white, I put a tortoise-shell like one I had from an old project that didn't work out.
I changed the wiring entirely.
The original pickups were pretty disappointing. I had a pair of Gotoh alnico pickups I got earlier in the year in a trade, so I thought I'd put them here. Unfortunately this bass was a bit unusual: the bridge pickup had the same dimensions of a normal neck pickup! So I had to chisel the route a bit to make the pickup fit, but it wasn't too hard.
A set of D'Addario nylon tapewounds finished it off.

And here it is.
I think it looks pretty sweet, and it sounds great. Those pickups are surprisingly nice. :) :)
It's not a "new bass" day, but almost!
