The amount of basses not on a settee in this thread... puts the number of apostrophe police arrests to shame.

Do they have a red wire going to each pickup? If so, they're active. It's possible the preamp in the pickup took a shit and died, I've seen it enough times in EMGs. MECs tend to have a gold logo for active and silver logo for passive, or at least they used to. I suspect they're active ones in that bass, so you'll need a like for like replacement. The Warwick serial number decoder is usually very good at giving you the specifics of your instrument and Hans Peter is excellent for replying to questions.

Why not just buy something good and not upgrade anything?

I've a lot of time for Free Peace Sweet, excellent album which still holds up well. The first two were patchy, it must be said.

I wonder did Janek pay to licence the Gran Turismo image.

I'm the only person I know who still buys CDs. If you like having loads of CDs in the boot of your car, go for it. If not, spend the time and money in online promotion of your gigs and streaming links.

I believe it was 1966 when Jaco first recoiled in horror, pointing at his bass -four stringed, naturally - and shouted "BAD VIBES, MAAAAAAAN!" as he struggled with the emotion of tone-sucking shonkiness of his original, rare and future vintage, but not yet, Jazz bass. He tried to kill the crappy bridge with a butter knife, as legend has it, but slipped on a stray banana skin, missed, and inadvertently invented the first electric fretless bass and Jazz Fusion, all on a rainy Wednesday.

What else do you expect Mojo toneworms to survive on?

Randy R Nicklas II is poor shadow of the first and, many would say, greatest of the Randy R Nicklas' to grace the oul three stringer. David Pastorius, of course, only needed two strings.

Each hole is perfectly sized to attract and provide a habitat for wild Mojos.

You can see it's stamped Taiwan on the back of the headstock. I think 85 or 86 was the last year for Japanese ones.

AI Jaco only needed three strings, that's why.
