Hi all,
So I finished my latest project build--an import dual P BC Rich Warlock that I refitted with 250k CTS pots, .1uf orange drop caps, and Fender 62 reissue pickups. It's everything good about a P but more articulate. I'm not sure why the dual P design isn't more popular or tried, but in my experience it works well. I like it a lot better than the active stock stuff that was in there.
Now I'm moving on to trying a PJ. I'm seeing some Kramer Strikers, which are cheap. I like them because they have a body similar to the old 80s Jackson/Charvel/Fender Japan models but with standard and not reversed P coils (don't like the sound of reverse P's).
The only problem is they have a toggle switch, which looks a bit hokey on a bass. They have 3 control knobs. I assume these are Jazz bass style, but independent volume knobs on a bass with a toggle wouldn't be necessary, would they? Any clue what the controls might be?
Thanks.
