interesting. So would you say the fender pickups have a slightly tighter bass and ever so slightly more articulation then?
I’ve been waiting for a used pair to land on the market for so long.
Just listened to clips. Definitely an output difference. Also like you said the fender pickups have a boomier bass. Would be interesting if when the volume is raised how the difference is.
I recently bought a jap 70’s yamaha pulser p bass. It’s pickup output is 9k when I play my other p bass I notice a big difference and have to turn the volume down.
Cheers for the response. I may drop him a email.
on his website he states the 74p is lower output but more articulate and tighter. Do you notice it lower output compared to the fender you have
I just got back from the Yamaha flagship store in central london. Yamaha own line 6 so I played with the xl stomp pedals. NOPE not for me. Way too detailed and imo over complicated. Just to adjust some EQ needed unnecessary steps to adjust. Just not for me
Oh ok. You returned it? Did you try adding sims you like?
They have around 6 slots.
i bought it up as I’m looking to get this of the laney digbeth db -pre. Doesn’t have cab sim and it option.
the dark glass vintage v2 is another option.
have you looked into the bud Melvin Lee Davis preamp and di pedal. It’s very small. The layout is very simple.
you can add cab sims and ir via there software and transfer it to pedal. Also you can edit them via software.
it’s gotten really good reviews.

when I went down to guitar guitar in Camden London I tried a couple basses. I went to ask what the body would was. He came back and confirmed that the red bass was ash. I tried the Nate Mendel bass that day which is also an ash body.
You are right some colour ways was alder and some was ash.
I have a Yamaha pulser Japanese bass. Its neck is very very similar to a 77 mocha fender pbass I’ve played here in central london. 40mm neck with it being nice and deep back to front.
Purchased a precision loom from John. Top service. Extremely helpful with my questions, prompt and detailed delivery updates and packaging was top notch.
Will be using him again.
Highly recommend his services.
You have better eyes than me. How do you tell if a bass has been refretted?
The frets look completely flat so either needs fret dressing and crowning or a refret.
