Knobs... try Vanson nice feel and quality. I like there Full Dome knobs(!) and have em on lots of bitsas and modders... push on though. High Output Pup's... Entwistle JBXN... https://entwistlepickups.com/ Modification Suggestion... How much room under the scratch plate?... Go Jazz PJ!

Candy Apple Sunshine...

The pickups are 4 wire 'Stacked Coils' so you can series/parallel switch them, in a Jazz cover. I'll prolly just go Series. So dunno if that still counts as a 'Single Coil' - similar idea to a Split P I think - and go A250k as they are not a big meaty pair of std single coils type 'Humbucker' and go A500k Was gonna go A250 to stop em being to bright? Edit: @Hellzero A500k and MN500k on order... Also Davii of MV Pups (FB MP and Reverb) confirmed, suggests no lower than 500k...

Gonna wire Vol (A250k or A500k?) Blend (MN250k or MN500k?) and an Artec QTP - Quad Tone (and Bypass) Passive 5 position switch.

Fender rather than Squier? I'd start by saying thats a £100 ding and see what the response is...

Found a set of Adagio Rounds in the draw already cut for an Ibby... Matching Red Silks top and bottom... Nice! Cream Covers on order to try and tie-in the maple board, and help highlight the 'Modified' with the black (screening) painted route... You get the idea...

Clue was in the background... Don't see the Maple board versions that often, not glossy-shiny just an 'almost there' finish. 0000 Wire Wool to the frets, and Bees wax applied with 0000 Wire Wool to the fretboard. Green Sponge to the back of the neck and Castrol Motorcycle Polish for the body. The maple board neck is rather lovely, "don't have a maple one" was the justification to MrsPlug!

It's all @Raslee fault and his bargain pair of Maida Vale Stacked Jazz Pickups...

You knows i loves an Ibby SR... Don't usually do red... but the CAR is nice... and this is a lesser common SR300 as...

Any broken P plates out their?

Orgone Accumulator - Hawkwind

I likes a rear rout no pick guard. And if you are going MM Control Plate... I'd go Cheap P pick guard, cut down minimalist to more a pickup surround to cover the P route and wire channel... and to adjoin the control plate ala Jazz... a P MM J fusion. Likes the natural wood... Reverse tuners ain't gonna kill ya...

If you need to go smaller... maybe a cheapy from Ali express... less than a tenner... and fit the old one in the center based on existing pickup - draw around, and cut off the excess...

ON 3 5 7 seems to be the norm... Making yourself? I'd do without, maybe a mark of some sort at 12... No need, and less to go wrong lining up drilling, filling etc...

Zodiac Lung - Monster Magnet

Nice Noise!... I'm more the Hawkwind Space Ritual, DOREMI - Motörhead Overkill kinda sound with his Melodic lead bass lines than the later Motör-Metäl-Müsh... There is an Xotic SL (Super Lead) Drive pedal with internal DIP Switch for selecting between SL and SB, £120ish. As @Baloney Balderdash posted the Joyo British at £25ish SH sounds good... So much so, that i haven't seen mine since it's make-over as it's been nabbed and now on my Son's Bass Board... ...replacing the Mid-modded Behringer Beady-Eye, that has now had it's own make-over... But, I loves my Zoom B1on with Marshall SB Amp 'n 4x12 Cab Sim at £20ish SH... I picked up a SH Zoom B1Xon - the expression pedal version - for a tenner the other week... £10?! Much more my budget than an OKKO MotöBass at £160ish! ...but, more than happy to watch and listen to our @CiciBassRocking and Spacing Out...

Current string prices of well know brands, i'd go with what ya got... Although the Roto's are mentioned as High Tension. There are some charts on their website. Toe-In-The-Water or Budget Flats? Adagio 45-100 are Nickel or Olympia 45 - 100 in Stainless... (£16ish offer?) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302719180784 Adagio are same similar price from same shop (advantage music)... but look like out of stock, don't go paying £22 odd from others. If you dabble in guitar... i've got the Flatwound 10-46 (wound third) on an Eppi LP... neck pickup, thick 'n warm... none of that trebbly scratchy screechy stuff... save that for the strat...
