What's it like with the two pickups on at the same time?

Because of the impedance mismatch between the two pickups (mudbucker reads 30k resistance, Model J is 6.8k), when both are on at the same time the sound is basically a slightly thinner, less bassy version of the Model J toans. It's good for playing chords and stuff because by default the pickup is pretty bassy, even where it is. But I also tend to play on or just before the neck, so that adds to it. I thought they were out of phase with each other but I reversed the polarity on one and it's the same sound.
I'm giving the J bridge position one more chance and right now I'm actually really enjoying it. The Model J does not yield the standard wimpy/nasal Jazz pickup toan, so it's alright. I think it's better for me to not have all of those options as before; I can't settle on a sound when I have more than stupid-simple guitar controls, and it's really annoying.
Might change bridge pickups in the future, dunno. It's been like half a year since I had a playable bass, so I'm just enjoying things at the moment.

Yea, Achtane, that bass is a beauty! Would buy.

This one deserves not to be completely overshadowed.

That thing is beautiful and reminds me how I need mudbuckers in my life.

Achtane wins the bass thread.

I want a bass or guitar with that finish so badly but I kind of expect if I showed up to jam with the rapper and drummer I'm writing stuff with they'd be like gurrrll you cray.

I understand that one posted after mine is awesome.

Yes Indeed. That is the only Jag Bass I've seen that I've been stoked on.

Debatable.

I would SO Bong Rip that...

Wow yeah.... What is that?

It's an electrical guitar company (EGC)

Neck and body made of aluminum.

34.5" scale

Tuned F, A#, C#, G# (.190, .142, .106, .079)

I've owned a lot of nice basses over the years, but this one is hands down the winner.
