BassAdder60 Posted July 4, 2023 Author Posted July 4, 2023 Decided to go black on the pickguard and I’m liking the look 3 Quote
alexa3020 Posted July 4, 2023 Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) Black looks good. I Prefer it to the white for sure. I never find 3rd party pick guards fit 100% correctly (unless thats genuine fender?$$$). Screws sitting slightly off axis does annoy me - similar to amp overhang Edited July 4, 2023 by alexa3020 Quote
BassAdder60 Posted July 4, 2023 Author Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) So far the ones ordered from EBay have all been spot on £12 each ! Edited July 4, 2023 by BassAdder60 Quote
BassAdder60 Posted July 8, 2023 Author Posted July 8, 2023 Gig night tonight with the Jazz bass and this time playing it with a pick In fact a Yellow 0.73mm Tortex Triangle pick ! MXR EQ pedal set for pick tone ( Mids reduced and 100hz boosted. ) Sounds sweet at home, fingers crossed it sounds good loud. Both pups on full and tone backed off a little Quote
BassAdder60 Posted July 9, 2023 Author Posted July 9, 2023 Wow … I found a great tone with the Jazz bass … not fingerstyle but a pick and running both pups on full and the MXR EQ pedal to boost lows and cut mids. Best sound ive had live so far 2 Quote
Grassie Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 I love jazzes and have owned 5 (deluxe USA Fender 5, Fender Mex, Sire V7, Squier Affinity, G&L tribute JB1) and have always played with both pickups on full with the tone either full or at 50%. It really is the best passive set up, and they cut through without sounding thin or brittle. I also love P basses but the versatility you get from a jazz is the deal breaker. 😊 2 Quote
