Vigier preamp board - what is this unusual component?
Hellzero replied to ikay's topic in Repairs and Technical
The Benedetti pickups are really amazing. -

And you can even adjust its action through a hole in the pickguard or at the rear. -

It's in fact a dummy coil to avoid the usual humming noise of the single coil pickups. -
I hope so. That said, if you read the text, you'll notice that it's utter marketing bullshìt.

Or maybe a Shergold Modulator...

Or a Shergold Modulator, maybe I need to copyright it, who knows.

And I put this excellent lightweight bridge on my Rebellion Jazz Bass, it's a great plus compared to an original MusicMan or a simple budget one like yours. https://www.ampshopbassexchange.com/product/albridge-parts-m20b-music-man-style-4-string-quick-release-bridge-for-jazz-bass-or-precision-electric-bass-guitars/ The new version is not a quick release model. It's this:

You can put the output jack this way up the rear cavity, which is far better that a barrel jack side mounted ergonomically speaking.

I guess you mean a neck pickup...

The place that was Andy's Guitar Workshop is is now called Denmark Street Guitars, but has been Hank's Guitar Shop in between : https://www.denmarkstreetonline.co.uk/ That said, the more I look at it, the more it looks like a stolen guitar with all the distinctive signs erased... It could also be a Schecter hardtail from the 80/90's as it has the smaller headstock, but most of them had gold hardware or a Fender from the same period, but then the hardtail bridge is a modern replacement. Waiting for way more photos.

These are CTS pots and have a code on them that can be easily deciphered, just like the back of the pickups. The switch looks like a CRL model, and if still original should be a 3 position model. Furthermore, some photos of the heel of the neck might help too just like a photo of the body with the pickguard removed and a photo of the front of the headstock. The Schaler tuners are a common upgrade on Strats as they align with the original lower holes.

With such poor quality and useless photos, all I can say is that it's been modified at some point and was originally a mid to late 70's or even very early 80's (this kind of checking is typical from this period) hard tail Fender Stratocaster, named so, because it has no tremolo, but a fixed bridge. Robert Cray used to play one and even has a Fender signature model.

You're, welcome. 😉

That's it, just reverse these two wires on ONE pickup only.
-
Your pickups are out of phase, it can happen even with the best makers. Simply reverse the phase of one pickup by inverting the hot (+) and cold (earth or -) wires and it should work normally.

Not sure, but it could be a Shergold Modulator.

Try to be Abba without the talent and this is what you get... Terrific drumming indeed @Dad3353, I guess some punk drummers must be jealous. 🤪🤘 That said it's indeed a Shergold Modulator (named this way, because you could buy extra modules...) just like the lower half of Mike Rutherford's emblematical instrument.
