It's my main bass... I absolutely love it. And it's almost a collectable, as only a few (compared to mass produced stingrays for instance) of them were actually built. -
Squier jazz bass replacement pickups recommendation
mc82 replied to timmygospel's topic in Bass Guitars
I also have a Squier JB modified. I first replaced the electronics by a sadowsky VTC preamp (4 knobs). It requires to move the jack to the side of the body, so I had someone do it for me for 50 euros. It was a great improvement, but I still lacked some definition, especially on the B string. My bass teacher plays a Sadowsky and the comparison was cruel to me. Hopefully, I came across a set of Aguilar AG 5J HC pickups on a popular french classified adds website. So I bought them and installed them. Honnestly, it was worth the money... I now have a very very nice sounding instrument for less than a thousand euros. The Sadowski might still be better, my bass has a better quality over price ratio ;-)
