The pickup has six magnetic pieces in it and the fat E string does not really get heard as well as the other three.Originally Posted by colin2121
That being said...I am amazed by the sound from this pickup and the standard kit electronics. The output is low...compared to ToneRider, Seymour Duncan, Entwhistle pickups I have here in other basses. But, the mid range and top end this pickup brings is amazing in use. I had to play with my EQ on my Amp and now I am loving the bigger sound....more noises make more smiles.
Thank you for the kind words....it is not a good finish...and not a good path for me. I have no idea what I am doing with paint...and to me it shows. I am tempted to hit the body with 80 grit and do a stain and some spray polyurethane.
Sadly though as per page one of my build diary I wanted to try and get close to the Photo of the Black Body with a yellow neck Squier as I posted there. I think I did pretty well with that goal.
In summary....It sounds different yet amazing from my other bass guitars...it has some weight to it...the neck feels amazing...the body is a site for a future upgrade.
