yes the difference would be you can only cut and not boost. the bass vi i know of has its strangle switch which must be similar, that uses a 0.003 cap so smaller than tone knobs. it would just involve an RC high pass filter.

thanks thanks thanks. this is very helpful. got the file on email.. it looks alright. i'll try posting it in a bit.

wow, thanks for drawing up a diagram(even know it didnt show)- dont usually get this help from forums i wired up in standard JM without the middle pickup so far, and i'm plenty happy with that. its got a p90 in the bridge so its already sounding like two guitars, let alone with the strat-jag...

I'm reading your responses and i'm not an electronics expert, I just wield a soldering iron, but: a) i didn't think that this circuit would end up much different than a Les Paul, which in theory is the same but the switches are in different places. I'm not seeing how, if the middle pickup is...

OK, not to be impatient but i'm bumping this because i think i explained it in too convuluted way. this wiring wont be too much off LP wiring, so if i was doing that: mid 'circuit': independant volume       independant tone neck+bridge 'circuit': master volume- (for all pickups)            ...

absolutely yes. i made a killer fuzz bass- a dedicated instrument becuase it was a beaten up stagg, and all i needed was to match the ouput and input wires to the same place on the guitar. the problem was... i liked the fuzz quite a lot and wanted it to use with other guitars, and wanted to...

For my Jazzmaster build i have it currently in the traditional setup, with rhythm circuit etc. just to see what its like. however i think its time i add the middle pickup for which it was routed for- a strat-jag novak p-up. My idea for the wiring is to ditch the rhythm circuit, and instead use...

thanks for that. i'm about to get some lighter fuel(naptha) and some linseed oil. lemon oil really does work for my rosewood, but on the wenge it didn't seem to really restore it. I'll probably get fret doctor after that(its a bit pricey), when i'm getting a cello, which will be expensive, i...

so i've decided to get a custom pickguard. its for a korina master from warmoth, currently a virgin to any electronics, sporting the simple black 1ply from warmoth. I've contacted a few sites, that do custom guards in various materials, but they request i send them a template, for what i'm...

yes excactly it. i ordered a jazzmaster neck, on special request. They hand did the shape... only to see the Five they tried out before making mine appear up on showcase(assumingly). just email them and push for it if you want it for a bit of extra $.

I got wenge/ebony neck. the wenge is so odd. its like picking up a piece of balsa its so light, feels so flimsy, but if i dropped it onto concrete i'd probably have trouble finding a mark on it. anyway- I've been told these woods are fine unfinished. but what should i use to clean and maintain...

I've nowhere i can hang the thing, would it come out uneven if i were to lay it flat and turn over each coat? also, what's a good walkthrough for finshing with danish oil. i've found a couple but want to know what you think is the best way. thanks

specifically black korina. perhaps, as unfinished-looking as possible with the least work that i can do myself. i dont have much space or $$ at the moment, so anything simple. my neck woods are safe, i know as advertised to be by warmoth, but what would happen to the body? would it age, crack...

dimensional differences? thats interesting as i always thought the warmoth bridge p-up looked shifted from the original design. i'd kind of like to know what differs from the fender. i know pickup placement is possibly the most defining factor in a guitar's sound, on par with the actual pickup...
