Another good video. Love the color on your Player bass. Hey---can you tell me if you know of a source to acquire pickups for both the MIJ Hybrid II Jazz and P Bass? Those pickups are unusual and sound so good. Thump and zing. Thanks!
@Kyle-fv2dy . Thank you for your kind words. Regarding pickups for the Hybrid II, I am not sure unless you can find them selling second-hand. I replaced mine with Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders. Keep ROCKING! 🤘🎸🎸🤘
@@christosfragias592 That's kind of what I thought. If you'd like to sell your Hybrid pickups....I'd be willing to purchase them. Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Brandon. Really appreciate your kind words. I use Kyser Dr Stringfellow's Lem-Oil for the fretboard, and Dunlop 65 fret polishing cloths for the frets, every time I change strings. Makes the bass look brand new. Keep rocking. 🤘 🎸
i have the same bass.. i was think about changing the bridge to the fender himass bridge, which is used in player plus models.. Or would u recommend another Bridge?
Can’t go wrong with a himass, but for a vintage style look id recommend the Pure Vintage 60’s or 70’s bridges, theyre made in the USA on the same machinery as the original pieces from those decades, id recommend checking them out.
Guitarist here that picked up the bass as well. I agree with everything you say about it. Great bridge there. High mass bridges are the only way to go on a bass, imo. Great video!
Thanks, Darvin for your kind words. Totally agree, the Hipshot KickAss bridge is awesome. I have my heart set on the new Fender Hybrid II made in Japan Precision or Jazz basses...you can never have enough gear. Keep ROCKING 🤘 🎸🤘🎸
I was thinking of getting that wiring harness but my question is what happens when the pots or pot goes bad and needs replacing. Do I have to get a whole new harness again? Or can the pots be replaced? Thanks great video.
Hi Cruise Angel. Firstly, thanks for your recognition. I would hope that never happens, as the quality is excellent, with some components saying they are made in Germany (at least on my HSH unit.) However, you could always revert back to the place of purchase and see if something could be arranged. Maybe it would be sent back to ObsidianWire for repair. Downside, your instrument would not be usable without replacement components. Keep ROCKING 🤘 🤘 🤘
Thanks for the video, i rekon you would have a lot of fun with a jazz bass, … i just put hum-cancelling bartolini and suhr pickups into an older indonesian squire classic j… so much fun… bartolini make these b-axis pickups that sound like nothing else, almost acoustic sounding, but super hard to find in stock anywhere sadly
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with your Squier Classic Jazz. I have seriously contemplated buying a Fender Jazz bass. And now that Fender have released their made in Japan Hybrid II series, some of those Jazz basses look too tempting to resist. If I do, I will definitely post a review. Till then my friend, keep ROCKING 🤘

Great video, thanks for the update! What product do you use to shine your fretboard? It looks great!

Interesting, haven’t tried those wired kits.
Please check them out, they are really good quality. And make swaping pickups a breeze. Keep ROCKING 🤘

Excellent walk through 🎸🎸
Thanks, Paul. Keep ROCKING 🤘
Your not going to just lightly file the edges of the frets?
Hi there, I might do that, but they are not that restrictive on my playing at this time.

Hi again, I bought a Fender Player Series Jazz bass last week. I will be posting a video soon...stay tuned to this frequency!
@@christosfragias592 Awesome! I look forward to seeing the video! Jazz bass is so much fun time to watch some Marcus Miller clips
Which flatwounds do you use?
Hi there, currently I use Rotosound RS66LD. They're really good and give you a warm and thick sound. Keep ROCKING 🤘
70s classic Rock 👍
Thanks, Paul. Please check out another one of my videos where I jam on my bass to the Who's, Won't Get Fooled Again. Love my 70s classic rock. 🤘
Did you play even one note to let us hear this bass?
I have posted other videos jamming on this bass along to some of my favourite songs on my UA-cam channel. Please check them out.
