Re: Pickup Upgrade

newc will probably give me hell but a set of emgs work well or add a j2000 electronic set to the pups you have.i have some of the electronics if you want to go that way.

Re: Pickup Upgrade

Your routing kindof limits you man.

I always stick with Warwick MEC pickups. those won't fit your bass though.

What kindof music do you play? you can never go wrong with some EMGs or Dimarzios in your bass.

I'm not sure what your pot configuration is limited to either.

Re: Pickup Upgrade

I always have liked the EMGs. They are fat and punchy. Heres a link to the bass I have.

I need a decent case as well.

Nice!! Wish mine was black. Would match my new Charvel guitar.

Re: Pickup Upgrade

I've never tried EMG bass pickups, but I'm not a diehard guitar pickup fan.

I would like to have a stack of various pickups to try out - Bartolinis, Duncan, DiMarzio, Fender, EMG, etc etc.
But like Peabuddy said - throw a J2000 board in it and you'd be surprised how much better it makes Jackson pickups sound.

Re: Pickup Upgrade

J2000 board? Where might I snag one of those?

Re: Pickup Upgrade

I've seen them on eBay quite a lot.

Re: Pickup Upgrade

Ok.....I'll keep an eye out for one.
