Beefed Up Jazz Bridge for Strat?

[tce44]

Thinking of doing a Beefed Up Jazz bridge for my Strat build, any thoughts on this?
Custom shop, said 3-weeks,not bad.
Just alittle more output/mids/bass in black,trembucker.
Waiting on the specs.

That should be pretty sweet! What kinda sound are you going for?

[tce44]

Thanx,really clean with alittle bite to it!
Gonna put a regular jazz bridge in neck spot, try 250k or 500k pots to smooth it out.

I love 250's with my Jazz set. They very subtly soften the top end.

[tce44]

What kind of guitar are they in?

[ArtieToo]

Mahogany, (with flame maple top), Cort CL1000.

[tce44]

Nice,mines mahogany body too, ebony neck.
Bet it sounds sweet!
What kind of music you play?

[JOLLY]

I wonder how a Slash 2.0 would be with an A5.

She does sound sweet. I basically just do pentatonic noodling to backing tracks. But I do have a few simple 4-part songs. Drum machine, bass, rhythm and lead.

A double thick mag will give you more output and bass. You could try UOA5 or A6 for a tad more mids without departing too far from the jazz voicing.

Good info,Im still waiting on specs to see.

I was going to suggest sizing up the mag
A8 or Ceramic

[tce44]

Ok they said a 10% boost in DCR.
Wonder if will sound a little fuller in bridge position?

[Clint 55]

Yes, it would. A double thick mag also gives you a boost similar to about a 10 or 15% raise in the dcr. But it you want to spend $200 instead of a few bucks, then cool. :P

[tce44]

True, but they dont make Jazz bridge pickups in trembucker so thats custom order,on top of boost.
