neepheid Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 What about the Seymour Duncan Antiquity? [url="http://www.seymourduncan.com/products/antiquity/bass/"]http://www.seymourduncan.com/products/antiquity/bass/[/url] They look ratty and old too! Maybe the Wizard Trad might be worth a look also?

That's what I've got, plus as heavier flats you can get away with. Also, find just rolling tone control down a tad helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
