Well I am getting a Squier Mike Dirnt Precision bass.

I plan on giving it a 51 ri or squier 50 CV neck for the maple, I am buying it used and it has QP's installed and the orig pups are included. I am thinking about putting a Darkstar in where the mudbucker would go in a Tele bass. And maybe the squier pup where the bridge pup goes in an Elite II goes, just till I get a better pup to put there.


Feel free to post comments or suggest other mods!

More than 1 pickup = too many choices!

Or buy a Jazz...

Why, thank you! The 51 gets used in anger once or twice most weeks...a wedding tonight, for example. And a biker gig tomorrow!

Tommy, I like this idea.

Lots of people modified the Telecaster and the First Generation P-bass. The people who did those mods had no idea they were totally wrecking the collector value...because nobody knew there would be any.

In this case the bass will never have collector value since there are a gazillion of them around. Mod away!

You might want to also upgrade the bridge. Especially since the neck radius will be way different on the CIJ neck you are considering.

Thx guys! And I also might want to repaint it burgundy mist or shell pink.

Any suggestions?


And Brother Dave I was think of getting the hipshot bridge or the fender deluxe highmass bridge that you highly reccomend.
