bigthumb Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I recently bought (Ebay) a 1998 CIJ 57 reissue Precision bass which will need a little work. First of all I need a new input socket so while I'm at it new pots wouldn't hurt! I'd like to replace the factory parts with the best possible, be it with individual parts or a whole pre-made loom, if such a thing exists. And finally, what would be a great set of passive pickups to complement it all? Cheers for any advice/recommendations. Quote
Jonse Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Get a Kiogon loom from off here. Pickups? Fender custom shop '62 P bass or a Lindy Fralin. 1 1 Quote

bigthumb Posted March 15, 2020 Author Posted March 15, 2020 Kiogon loom fitted to new tort scratchplate and just waiting for delivery of new pickups to arrive. What I'd like to do in the near future is to replace the existing '70s type tuners with the 50's/60's reverse winding kind. Soft question but are the ferrules diameter the same on a Japanese Pbass as a USA one? I really don't want to dismantle my 1977 Precision to check! 1 Quote
