Hey guys!
kinda need your help here.... I am also a bassa player by recent interest and failrly new to the instrument.
I love my flea jazz bass, It has those Vintage ’64 Jazz Bass single-coil pickups that have a nice tone!!
electronics is a dual concentric control VOL/TONE for each pickup and thats it!
I HAVE 2 Problems
1) volume: wont be bad to have a little more;
2) pickup mix- they are wired so that technically you are blending them wth the volume pot. But honestly the in-between tones are far from usable. One pickup is always too hot or too weak to influence the overall sound. And the tone as well, is either on or off, teh inbetween really is weak.
Any solution to this? I am not against changing pickups as well, i just like the dual VOL/Tone thing, and I would love to maintain that! Maybe just an upgraded electronics is the thing?
