Jazz Bass Loom

[Bass Fumbler]

I have a Squier Vintage Modified 77 Jazz Bass which has a bit of a thin sound compared with my Mexican Jazz.
I have seen this loom on Ebay, which look interesting.

This modification, which was inspired by the Seymour Duncan schematic shown above allows you to select:[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]Solo Bridge pickup[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]
[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]Bridge and Neck pickups (standard parallel wiring) slightly scooped sounding[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]
[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]Solo Neck pickup[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]but also[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]Bridge and Neck pickups (series wiring) this position turns both pickups into one massive Humbucker. Result: increased output with a boost in mid range taking away the sharpness in treble. Please note in Series mode (where the knob is pulled out) ooer Missus... it then acts as main volume. [/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][font="Arial"][size="4"]You can even choose from standard or alternative model Varitone switches. Otherwise a standard Varitone switch will be fitted...[/size][/font][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]
[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial] [/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial]Has anyone fitted o[size="4"]ne of these and did it make a difference, or would I be better off investing in new pick ups.[/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]
[size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"][font=Arial][size="4"]At the mo[size="4"]ment I don[size="4"]'t use this bass but if I could improv[size="4"]e on the sound I probably wo[size="4"]uld, as the neck is fantastic.[/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font][/size]

I really can't see why anybody would buy a wiring loom from ebay

You might have a look at my feedback - link below

Me neither.

I know what you mean about ebay but I found it by accident.
Would this circuit be one you would be able to provide Kiogon and would it give the bass more oomph, for want of a better term?
Also, what would the cost be.
Thanks

Dear Sir, can I please suggest you take a look at the original post and tell us if you can actually see what's happening in the circuit?

If its a relatively standard Jazz circuit then our KiOgon could do it blind-folded with both hands behind his back.
If it's a more complicated one, he might need the lights on, but I'm sure it's do-able.

Edit: And it would work! John wouldn't sell you anything that's suspect.
