When I have more time and money, I think I'll start playing around with pickups and stuff. I did throw a cheapo single coil (off a strat copy) pickup at my bass, but the results weren't great: too low sensitivity, and doesn't pick up the low E string much. Next time I'll know better.

Sorry to be pedantic, that applies to amplifiers using an output transformer, e.g. valve amplifiers, not transistor which are direct coupled, so in actual fact the opposite is true, high impedance load is usually better, too low impedance load can be worse if it can't handle it or might even cause ...

Hi david Easiest way is to find a workshop with a cutter that has a learning program. That way you can put the original on the cnc bed and trace round the outline with the cutter head.
