From Lollar Jazz bass pickups description…
”Featuring vintage output and scatterwound coils for superior tone, the Lollar Jazz Bass style neck pickup offers a full, clear sound. We use RWRP technique for humbucking when combined with the bridge pickup. Wax potted and made with Alnico 5 magnets.”
I was thinking of wiring this bass in series so both pickups act as one humbucker.
what does RWRP mean as it says it’s makes it act like a humbucker?
Anyone know? -
Do you have the dimensions of these please?
it’s for a Made in Japan Jazz bass. Need the size of both bridge and neck pickups width and length including the plastic surround
-
Sold it to me 👍

Ok need this gone asap.
Its for sale between now and 10am tomorrow for £750 as I’m trying to come up with that figure for a Maine Coon cat my children have talked me into buying but only held until morning for us.
-
Yeah I think Vintage White and Burst are best

A JB62M I bought through eBay from Japan just arrived.
Quick play as I have a gig but seems great,just had to loosen the truss Rod a little and raise the strings a tad.
Medium scale is my favourite scale now and selling my 34” basses (one left,it’s in the classifieds,Fender P American standard)
Pleased so far but I’m a tinkerer and think I’m going to try some Quarter pounders in the Aerodyne as it’s for Rock and unsure what to put in the Jazz for Motown,soul with flats. Any recommendations?

Oh having a look on GR site and it’s also a GR preamp pedal. Sorry guys should’ve looked before posting 😂
-
Think I’ve solved the head question. Is it a GR Bass pure amp 350?
-

Or possibly a JMJ Mustang.

Will consider possible trades for a 32” Jazz Bass or a 30” Japan Mustang.
-
I’m thinking of buying this if I can later next week maybe if it hasn’t sold.
-
Yeah it does look a little thirsty. I like both but just wondered as they difference is noticeable. I use that stuff from crimson guitars on my Basses/guitars and always darkens them up a bit.

I just put it down to it being half the watts of the GK,but no way could the Hand Box R400 that I have keep up with clean headroom of the GK.
-
But the volume has always been this way even before the HB light issue. I did wonder but thought I was turning up more because the knobs were linear or whatever the term is. I’ll have to find someone not too expensive to have a look maybe then.
-
I was told it’s plenty loud enough as it’s class AB and not class D but my GK legacy is lots louder.

Yeah, there's something, somewhere, not right.
Great ☹️

Bass was at about 1 o’clock,treble 11 o’clock ,contour off. Gain around 1 o’clock and Colume from 2 o’clock to 3 o’clock
-
I worry about the clean headroom on any outside gigs we do so I’ll probably have to use my GK for those but I like the sound of the HB head

I don't know how loud your band is, but IME it's should easily loud enough for a bigger room, within the confines of what the cab is capable of, of course. I wouldn't worry about the clip light, but 90% volume? That's insane.
Is the BF2x10 4ohm?
Yeah 4ohm
Was a medium sized practice room and wasn’t louder than the rest of the band (sax,2 trumpets,drums,guitar)

Thanks for this,maybe it is just the red LED light then:
leszek replies to me and just clarifying what mod/fix was done on it by previous owner and if need to get it looked at by an amp tech.
Also a bit worried about headroom as last night I just took a Barefaced 2x10 instead of the Six10 with a not so loud band and by the end of it I I was at about 90% volume and gain was at about 1pm and the clip light kept flashing so wondering if this amp is loud enough for bigger rooms. But maybe it just need the Six10 but I found my GK legacy 800 goes a lot louder and cleaner than the HB unfortunately.
yet to gig with it so I’ll report back but just want to find out if anything is up with the amp as it goes on ok and clicks like you say to Green light. -
I can’t believe this hasn’t sold yet, I think if it hasn’t sold by this weekend at this price I’ll keep hold of it.
Any takers?

Ok thanks. Way it was worded I thought I wouldn’t be able to wire in series
