Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand?? (tapping foot) How did it sound?
Sorry...I slept in after a contended night with the silver mistress.
The TB Plus pups sound less electronic with more warmth and a groovy harmonic oscillation. I do play in upper positions where the tone is improved even more over the stock skinny plates. I'll be playing this bass with the tone choked down and open wide - good tone and power in either case. This is a welcome break from building 'F'-based basses (with a few minor surprises). Thanks much for the guidance, Uwe.
