Im thinking about adding a humbucker to my jazz bass as a third pick up. Something Ive seen on 90s basses from Jeff Ament. Or something like Billy Sheehan would do with a gibson style mudbucker. My current jazz bass has a series/parallel switch already. How would I wire such a pickup (a Dimarzio model One for instance) on a jazz bass with series/parallel switch. Can it be done with three stacked (volume/tone) knobs? And perhaps 1 or 2 toggle switches (one for series/parallel j pickups + one for serie/parallel the humbucker PU). Infinite sounds.... Would something like this work? And what PU's would you recommend? Something like this picture. Only with a third stacked knob for the humbucker and perhaps a serie/parallel toggle.

Check out this one! It''s being sold overhere in the Netherlands... Yamaha BB5000A 90's Metallic purple

I got the bridge from Ali. It's fastened with screws, nothing special there. I only needed to allign correctly offcourse.

It''s natural, here's another pic:

I've been working on this for months. But it's all done now! I've talked about modding a BB into BB-Ray on this board before. I've bought a BB-350 (which is an excellent player!! that neck!!) and modded it into a stingray. I used this preamp kit: https://www.musikding.de/Classic-Bass-Preamp-Preamp-kit This is a original stingray '77 clone 2EQ. And it sure sounds like a Stingray!

Updated my board with a Boss Harmonist:

I'm looking for Yamaha BB templates. Both for the body and/or pickguards. Want to mod a BB as my next project, but I need a good idea first ;). Who can help me with a template or exact measurements?

So I have these Fender reversed tuners on my p-bass. I'm thinking of replacing them for 'normal' tuners, there are many options. But before I do so I want to be sure that these new tuners will fit. But I can't find any specifications about the fender reversed tuners. Not even Fender has sizes mentioned (bushing, pegs,...): [url="http://shop.fender.com/en-NL/parts/tuning-machines/pure-vintage-bass-tuning-machines-set-of-4/0078834049.html"]http://shop.fender.com/en-NL/parts/tuning-machines/pure-vintage-bass-tuning-machines-set-of-4/0078834049.html[/url] Can anyone point me in the right directions? Thanks!
