    I'll see how it sounds with the single balance pot one some 60s Fender CS pups, but for me, anything less than fully open pots on a jazz seems to lose something from the signal hence my habit of letting the amp/EQ cut the frequencies I don't want. I became a professional touring/recording musician by accident so I didn't spend the time to learn the ins-and-outs of wiring or pick-up configurations, I just had to use my ears and go with the flow! Now I have the time I might get more technical... Thanks for all your input, its appreciated. Mark

    Thanks for your input guys... I don't use a P-bass live or in the studio but do have one for rehearsals so I'll give it a go on that - likely won't bother me if there's a harshness to the treble on the Precision as I prefer a bassier, classic soul sound with the treble and high-mids turned down fairly low on my amp so as to stay clear of the brass section in the mix... For the jazz, I'll try with one balance pot before the output jack which should help by adding some load. Will update with results when I have them! Cheers, Mark

    Hi John, I'd like to upgrade the electronics on my main touring bass, a MIM Fender Jazz. I have always kept all volume & tone control pots wide open when playing live or in the studio and adjusted the tone, mid scoops etc on my amplifier or rack EQ... So, as my pots are basically redundant, would it be possible to bypass them and wire directly to the output jack from the pickups? If feasible, I'd like to pay you to wire up a a suitable configuration for me, pickups + output jack (1 x Jazz setup for touring bass + 1 x P-Bass setup for rehearsal bass) and I will fit & ground. Your work looks far better than I'd be capable of, its been years since I've done any serious soldering... Cheers, Mark
