oldslapper Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Hello! I find the neck profile, nut width and string spacing on these old Korean basses perfect for a 5 string. However the electrics and pups are underwhelming to my ears. So am modding one (including a defret) I’ve recently acquired. What say you, the BC massive? Pickups: My favourite pups are Bartolinis, so likely to replace with some Barts. Will require some widening of cavities as I believe the factory pups are 4 string’ers. Pre amp: My initial thought was for a “drop in” P Retro, but I would need to add a blend pot or switch. Don’t want to spend a fortune, maybe £300 on the parts?
