Oh and I must add. I bought 2 x gotoh 500k pots, one A and one B type for the humbucker pickup. I also added an orange drop 0.47 thingie capacitor to the tone pot. I then put 1 x A style and 1 x B style 250k pots for the single coil, split p bass pickup, with an orange drop 0.22 thingie capacitor on the tone pot. The pots work so smooth....had to use my mini rotary tool to fit the huge pots into the original routing....took all of 30 seconds.
She is definitely quieter, and the tone is deeper and more consistent. I am driving miss "Coolie" as a preference over four other basses at the moment. Nice action, great sound and so smooth in the hand.
The PBH is the best Bass kit I have made so far. The end result is awesome. The stain and figure grabbing effects of Dingo Tone are second to none. Just the finish coat is not to my liking. But we adapt and overcome.
Maybe a Ricky or a stingray next....or even another PBH with a different colour scheme and pickups. Hmmmmm the possibilities are endless.
