Bloodstone wiring loom

[KingPrawn]

Evening chaps.

Have any of you had any dealings with this outfit? I like the look of this loom. Its for a P bass hence so 250K is ideal. Like the idea of Audio Taper  Pots. Can any one vouch for the Sprague " Orange drop" CAP?

thoughts please 

Incorporates:

• Matched* CTS USA Custom Audio Taper 250K Split Shaft Volume & Tone Potentiometers - smooth linear volume and tone change (no bunching or on/off effect)
• 0.022uF Sprague "Orange Drop" Tone Capacitor** - removes the thinness and harshness inherent with budget capacitors
• Quality Jack Socket
• Bridge earth wire supplied with heatshrink tube to twist join with exiting earth, solder and insulate

Custom Audio taper > smooth linear!?

.022uF cap has no place on a P bass!

What quality?  Switchcraft or not?

Twist and bodge!

Just my opinion like 🙄

Thanks for the input. I’ll take a look at your products. The part I think I’m overthinking is the relationship between the choice of pickup and the impact the cap will have on the tonal range. So if I buy for example some Delano PMVC 4 AL H. Pups. What cap&  pots etc will give me the best pairing. I guess I’m overthinking it. I usually do.

I've bought a few pickups from Dave. he's a top man.

 

Last pickup was an over-wound split single coil. Not a big deal except I wanted it wound to 29.9k ohm.

 

Dave was up to the challenge, run a few questions my way then he was all set. 4 days later I was installing the pickup.

That's the cap value used on the Peavey Fury and Patriot (P-bass  clones) and folks rave about those. The G&L LB-100 also had a .022uf cap.

P bass is the simplest to wire. Diagrams all over the 'net. Buy the parts and do it yourself. Should take around 15 mins.
