I have had my Fender MIM Jazz Bass sitting in my basement for sometime. I use it once in a blue moon and I didn't really pay attention to its tone. Now I'm thinking about using it on more reqularly and I wonder if I should put some new pickups in it to get better sounds. Are there any bass gurus out there that play mostly blues, rock amp; roll, country and ballads and wish to help me out. Or may be you consider the sound is good enough already and I shouldn't even fool around with it? Any suggestion is appreciated. I seldom slap my bass (unless it gets really naughty, hehe).

maple or mohagany set setneck?
how much difference do they make in a set neck guitar?
since most of the string tension is balanced by the truss rod how does the wood affect the sound?

single coil that can do palm muting?
the title says it all. i find that i cant ever achieve a nice palm muted sound out a single coil...before i finally go out and buy a humbucker to put in my strat i wouldnt mind hearing about a single coil that can do PMs and still sound like a genuine single the rest of the time.

Spider 2
I know many people on here are tube purists. I DONT want to hear from you. I am interested in hearing from open minded people who will use anything as long as it sounds good. Now I just played a line 6 Spider 2 head and loved it. Has a lot of useless crap on it but the dist. and clean sounds are quite good. I am poor and this amp sounds wonderful. YES I do like the compressed distortion sound this amp gives. YES I like the effects infested cleans on it. YES I have played it up all the way. Now has anybody played it on here or own one and can give me some sound advice on it and its overall sound?

Wiring question
I am in the process of wiring two singlecoils and one humbucker, using the diagram from the Kinnman site (One volume, one tone, one 250k NoLoad neck pickup mix control). If I use a 1 meg resistor instead of the 500k as suggested, will I need to alter the pot values? If not, in what way will using the 1 meg affect the tone? Thanks. from : localhost/www.kinman.com/html/Popo.htm
