Ultimate Pre-Bass Assembly / Bumble Bee (Made to Order) (3 in stock)

This is a vintage assembly for a Precision Bass.
It is made with carefully selected vintage capacitors, vintage wiring, and vintage solder. (Basic inch size, but centimeter conversion is also possible.)
This is the most popular setting for repairs.
By using vintage wiring, the improved sound quality from the vintage capacitors is realistically expressed.

The resolution of vintage wiring material is on a different level compared to the wiring material commonly used in modern guitars, including high-end models.
Sounds that used to be vague and distant, as if behind the speaker, will now spread out realistically and jump forward.
You can enjoy delicate finger touch and nuanced sounds that were previously only vaguely expressed.
Furthermore, the speed from playing to sound production is fast, which will surely have a positive impact on your playing.

We have carefully examined many types of vintage wiring materials and chosen ones that are close to the tone of modern general bass sounds,
and that will bring out the best in bass sounds.

The capacitor is the most popular plastic type, Bumble Bee (currently changing from 200v in the photo to 400v).
Circle D, which was used as genuine by Fender, is also popular, but this one has a thicker tone and wider range.
Compared to the popular Cornell Tiger, both have a wavy quality, but this one has a sharper tone with a clearer outline.

Capacitors can be changed upon request. Please inquire.

With the included vintage solder for repairs, you only need to solder your existing pickups (2 locations) and the ground wire connected to the body (1 location).
It's a simple task if you have a soldering iron. An instruction manual for the installation location is included.
Once you get used to this sound, it's so wonderful that you won't be able to play other basses.

Vintage capacitors and wiring materials do not result in an old-fashioned, outdated sound.
It simply eliminates the harsh frequencies from the impurities found in many modern sounds, the vague muddiness that prevents subtle changes from being expressed,
and the weak, thin tone.
It allows you to maximize the power of modern, evolved pickups.
This sound cannot be achieved with any current effects pedals or cables.
First-time users will surely be surprised.
Please take this opportunity to try it out.
