Hit&Run Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Now then, Can any basschatters advise me as to which jazz bass pickups on the market can be wired for individual series/parallel operation? I know the dimarzios can (ultra jazz & model j), but I can't find any others that allow this option. Share your wisdom with me! Thanks in advance.

I intend to do this S1 switching on mine soon and posted a thread in repairs & technical recently that someone kindly answered. I'll try to find it.

thinman Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Here you go - is this what you wanted to do? I imagine you could do this with any pair of single coils.

sk8 Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 i've had mine done so i've got them in parallel and at the pull of a switch in series (basically the S1 switch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hit&Run Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 Whoa there gents, [quote name='johnnylager' post='220346' date='Jun 17 2008, 07:30 AM']The individual pups or both S-1 stylie?[/quote]I mean series/parallel for each individual pickup. I should have seen the S1 answers coming... I have some dimarzio DP123s with a series/parallel switch for each pickup, and I was wondering if there were any alternatives to Dimarzios out there? I dug out the old 'bass player jazz pickup shootout' last night and not that many of them seemed to fit the bill. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
