My " hippie " refin build,  been playing it for about three years and was struggling with the Precision pickup.  Popped a Thunderbird pickup in it and problem solved. 😁 https://youtu.be/OmqEpu3q5oc?si=pC8nxBSxM8eu_9RR

Great! I got a cheap p clone I built from a kit, I always have in the back of my head to get rid of that peepeekup and replacing it with a real pickup...

That looks really nice. Not a relic but a nice satin, well-worn feeling bass. The Thunderbird pickup has a nice gurgle to it.

Do you have a photo of the John Mcvie bass you menu in at the start? It rings a bell, but I couldn't find anything online.
