    P Bass + MudBucker, two volumes and push pull tome pot

    Hi! I'm building my first bass with some spare parts and a neck/body of dubious origin. I have a set of unknown P Bass pickups, an artec mudbucker and a push pull pot. Since i'm completely lost regarding circuit design, i drew this one based on a standard pj wiring and a standard way to use a...

    Difference in wiring schemes?

    Fixing to replace the pots in my P bass since they're getting scratchy. I'm accustomed to soldering the tone cap to the back of the tone pot and the side lug like so: but I've come across some diagrams that have the tone cap going between the volume and the tone pots: What is the...

    Does different tone cap affect when fully open?

    Hello bass-friends, since I want to be able to roll off a bit more of the highs on my '76 Aria Pro II Pbass (with Fender Original Pickup installed, 250 tone pot), I want to change the .67 cap to a .100. Now I always assumed that this would not make any difference when the tone is fully open...

    "Greasebucket" tone mod vs. standard tone cap comparison - WITH SAMPLES

    I decided to try swapping a 0.047 cap on the tone control of my Classic 50s P (which was a "swap" itself, as the stock cap for those reissues is 0.1) with a Greasebucket mod kit I bought, which includes a 0.022 cap acting as "tone value", bridged to a 4.7 k resistor and a separate 0.1 cap. I'm...

    Favorite Type of tone cap.

    I realize this may be redundant- I done a search.. I've all ready decided.. To use a .15-.22uf But what company provides a good durable material and holds up or what's your favorite to you. It's a 2003 p with a j neck. Bill Lawrence or geezer butler.. Going as bright is hell.. With minimal...

    Vintage '60 Precision bass: weird wiring under the hood? (Volume control issue)

    Greetings all, I scored a 1960 Fender P that had pretty poopy care taken of it in its day, cheap aftermarket pickguard, been refinished at least four times, flathead screw instead of strap button on top cutaway, and more. Plays beautifully and is a definite keeper. The oddest thing, though, is...
