I’ll give that a try….. thanks

Basschat Hive Mind... A long shot but does anyone have any ideas about the wiring for this Ricky neck pickup, which wire might be the ground or the hot? Its a rewind of a old, completely dead pickup and the people who did it are not replying at the moment and I'd like to get it fitted to my waiting 4003.. Thanks in advance

Bought a Fender off of Pete.. Arrived very well packaged, great comms, pleasure to deal with...

A question for the Basschat experts My 2009 4003 Jetglo right out of the blue developed a fault, the bridge pickup sounded thin, i mean real THIN, no sound of it at all when you switch to neck/bridge. Also the vintage push/pull made no real difference. After a trip to a guitar tech Im told the bridge pickup is faulty and needs either rewinding or replacing. A new pick up was fitted (a Retrovibe 12k high gain) and the same issue is pretty much still there, however now i seem to have some bonus problems... The bridge is still way too low and muffled, the treble tone pot may well as not exist the same as the push/pull, there's no noticeable difference in tone... The treble volume, when on full makes everything sound thin again, a few notches back and it seems to get added bass. Turn the bass volume back a few notches and i get another change in sound, its seems to take some bass out..!! Im at a loss, new pots needed? a new cap? or a whole new harness? It appears to be a simple change out of old pickup for new.... bad soldering on my part?

I saw their ad on Join My Band and i'm well inside their catchment area and did think about messaging them.... The band webpage seems to show them a bass player AND a guitarist light... After reading the above i dont think ill take it any further.....
