kodiakblair Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I'm rapidly running out of 51 P-bass variations but you can't plan these things too much. Last Friday I spotted a body on the FB marketplace, 2 messages and £45 later it was mine 🙂 Fella post it Saturday, Evri dropped it off Monday afternoon 👍 No idea what this was from but it's a starter for 10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 Quick rake through the neck bin failed to turn up any with squared heels. It took very little to make this right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 Opted for Entwistle PBXN. I've a few complain these never fit. No problem here, could easily have used springs instead of foam. They're actually a bit low so I'll probably go with springs later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 2 x 250k pots + 0.1 cap. Control plate/knobs from Axecaster. Scratchplate from China. 90 minutes well spent 😀 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most hot pickups get the increased output from higher wire counts, trouble with that is you start to lose the mids and a P-bass without mids is a no-no. Enwistle have a fairly low wire count but get the higher output by using rare earth magnets 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could still happen Paul 🙂 One of the apprentices is right into his motors , pal of his has started doing resprays. Another does the wraps. Seeing as I've around £100 in this there's plenty for a good finish and still come in under Affinity money 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
