hamfist Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Just noodling around on a day off. I'm so impressed by my new CIJ Jazz with Fralins in, I thought I'd do a couple of soundclips for people who might be interested. These pickups are not boomy, and are not bright, but seem to put out a superb range of frequencies for the bass guitar. The midrange is just so perfect. I haven't got to play this with the band yet, but my suspicion is that it will fit in amazingly. The first clip is the bridge pup with a hint of neck mixed in, and the 2nd is of the neck pup with a hint of bridge mixed in.

Dingus Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Nice sounding Jazz Bass . There are so many great Jazz pickups on the market nowadays , and the Fralins are amongst the best , and to my ears sound very authentic to the classic Fender sound . Its all very well telling us about the pickup settings , but were these latest demos done with or without the dressing gown ? Quote
