lownote Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 The Westfield is a neat lightweight P bass clone with surprising build quality for little more than a £100 new. I got mine from Iconic on here and very fine it is too. However, while it's OK if you're totally skint, the stock pickup will benefit from replacing. I swapped mine out for a Seymour Duncan SPB1. I did consider the SPB3 but read various posts saying it was too in your face and the SPB1 was subtler. For me the SPB1 is great and a big improvement on the stock pup. But beware, the SPB1 pup covers are different in that they're shallower and the screw holes are closer together than on the orginal. This means you either have to use the stock pup covers, which means filing or sanding them down to the depth of the new pups. Or use the new covers and carefully drill at least one new hole in the body so the screws go in proper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
