Modded GSR200

[Stonemonkey]

Over the past year I've got various bits and pieces to do this, some might say its crazy to do this instead of just buying a better bass but where's the fun in that and I probably wouldn't do this with a better instrument. I think I've finished it although I'll probably redo the wiring at some point.

Wilkinson (cheap) p pickup, sounds pretty good and almost noiseless, less noisy then the active EMGs I tried before.

Dimarzio (2nd hand) ultra jazz, again, sounds decent and virtually noiseless

Pickups go into active balance, then into active bass/treble/variable mid stacked knobs, then volume and out. Volume is push/pull and switches to passive mode with just the P pickup going straight to volume and out.

 

Bit of overkill for that bass? Probably, but its been fun doing it and I'm quite pleased with how it's ended up.

Some sounds from it, just recorded on my phone, no effects, noise reduction or eq added.

Passive mode (P pickup only, no tone control)

Active P, flat tone

Active J, flat tone

Then various extreme tone settings.

Is it that bad? I don't mean my playing, I know that is, but what I've done to my bass?
