Hi,

I have an entry level, the Squire J bass affinity. I want to replace the pickups with the Fender Deluxe SCN pickups. Do you think this will work? I like to know before I order them online. Thanks.

You can install SCNs without problem. They work fine with active and passive electronics.

Of course you can install the Fender Deluxe 3-band preamp if you wanna have a modern sound. You'll need to cut a hole on the lower bout to install a side-mount jack and rout the back of the body for the battery compartment.

It's strongly recommended to use the new 3-band preamp with the active/passive toggle and the standard passive tone pot which comes stock with the 2010 Deluxe. The picture below shows a similar product which is not dissimilar to the actual Fender Deluxe 3-band preamp.

BTW, I'm not sure if the 2010 Deluxe preamp works with the SCN pickups. :?
