I definitely get that. I usually change out electronics too. :) The Squier’s have dual humbuckers.

It ended up being the canvas settings which I totally overlooked. I was able to allow it on the site using lckdscl’s link.

OMG HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED THIS??? You were totally correct and even from the address bar I was able to allow it on the site. Crazy simple! THANK YOU!!!

Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with the Cort but I have played the Marcus Miller and they are really well constructed instruments. I was quite impressed especially with the prices.

Now IF you feel comfortable and are within their delivery areas, Thomann Music does sell Jazz necks that MIGHT work for you: https://www.thomannmusic.com/e-bass_necks.html The issue could be that it looks like your Bacchus is probably a 21 fret vs standard Fender 20 fret but it would have to be measured to be sure that it would fit the pocket AND wouldn’t mess up the intonation.

Buying a new bass could just be faster and easier and it doesn’t look like you could go wrong with either of those. I also wouldn’t ignore Squier’s Contemporary active models or if your willing to go passive the Classic Vibe series. Those are very worthy instruments as well. Good luck with your search!

Dock of the Bay, Heard it Through the Grapevine, Lovely Day (Bill Withers), Lean on Me, Stand by Me, are ones that come to mind at first. I’d say learn the overall groove with root notes then work on the embellishments.

I’ve bought countless pairs from Zenni for more than a decade and they’ve always been pretty good. Sometimes some frames might feel a little cheap but that seems to have gotten better. For kicks I just bought a pair from EyeBuyDirect and was very pleased. They had them to me in about a week and they are perfect. For the prices, especially for single vision, you could try with very little risk. One thing that I’d note is make sure you get your Pupil Distance measured accurately. I’ve tried at home and was off. Any doc will do it at an exam.

Nice! I’ve already found a couple of things I’m interested in spinning up!

I would love to be able to block entire instances but I don’t believe that is possible yet. If it is please tell me how cause I have a bunch that would be on the chopping block!

Ah that makes more sense. I guess in the grand scheme of things here that would be rather low on the fix list. Thank you.
