P pickup on a jazz bass

My 2p: Major PITA and would possibly devalue your jazz, IMHO...
If you need a P sound occasionally, get a Vintage or a Squier P... excellent excuse to buy another bass! ;)
And you'll be able to join in with all the interminable P crap on here! :lol:

I recently looked into gettin a P pickup put in place of the neck pickup. It was gonna cost 40 for labour-the routing and wiring, 40 ish for a custom scratchplate and around 50 for a pickup.

In the end up I swapped the Jazz for a P on here. Why not make a Berry Oakley Tractor bass? Now that would be something!

Replace neck pup with DiMarzio Model J wired in series - as near as it gets without routing.

Put in a series-parallel switch for that pickup too, so you can still get more of a jazz bass tone as well!
