I’ve got a nice Bacchus Woodline active Jazz Bass, but over the years the neck bent severly. Bacchus doesnt answer my mails and the local luthiers cost me more than a new bass. So, now to my question: I have the hardware and electronics of the Bacchus bass and I want to know, which bass can be a solid replacement for upgrading. I dont live in the US and importing from Warmoth costs me quite a lot. I’ve been thinking of a Marcus Miller V3 or a Cort GB34 JJ.
Do you have other recommendations or ideas? Any help would be nice!
yeah, the Bacchus has 21 frets. I also really like the installed Bartolini pre amp, that’s why I am looking for an active Jazz body with the routing for a battery. What really matters to me for this unfortunate project is a good build quality. The hardware and electronics can be crap, they will be replaced either way.
The Squire Contemporary Basses have a humbucker in the bridge position, or are both humbuckers?
I definitely get that. I usually change out electronics too. :) The Squier’s have dual humbuckers.
