sshorepunk Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hi I'm going to have a chnage in my Se Jazz, currently running Bartolini soapbars and Bart' 3band pre amp. Both p/ups have cil taps Thinking about going for a mix of J-retro as I really like these pre's and thats based on previous experience. Thinking about going Nordstrand for p/ups. Fat stacks look like they will do the job, what various web sites have to say about them sounds like they will work for me. Modern sounding but with a coil tap giving a more old skool sound if needed. But then there are the The Big Splits, they may also do the job, I'm inclined to go with fat stacks but figured I'd ask on here first So anyone experienced any of these p/ups? Cheers Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Tony[/quote]Can't really answer your question Tony but I'm considering replacing EMG with a Fatstack too .. I do have a jazz with 2 Big Singles .. best I've heard IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Not much help I know, but i think either would be an improvement on the Bartolinis, which i've always found a little sterile sounding personally.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 The first thing I'd do if I bought that Sei would be to put in a set of Big Splits or Big Singles - never tried the Fat Stacks so I can't comment. I like to keep things simple, so single coils are more than complex enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
