Thanks! It’s a great bass, the satin neck is fantastic, I’ve since changed the pickup as it’s my backup gigging bass and the vintage sounding pickup just didn’t have quite enough punch for the rock covers I play, the Squier pickup is great but it was just getting a little lost in the full band mix
@@Ralferator I played this bass at a gig shorty after I got it and although it sounded good it sounded a bit thin compared to my other basses which have Quarter Pounders in them and it sounded to me like it was getting lost under the two guitar players in my band. Rather than put Quarter Pounders in this one as well I decided to try DiMarzio Model P pickups and I’m very happy with them 🤟
Nice job! How do you like the 40th Anniversary? Sounds really good!

@@thebeardedbassplayer What was the original pickup missing mids? What pickup did you put in instead and what did it improve?
