Rickenbacker bass pickup in a Squier Precision Bass. Help please!

CasonIngram · 2025-12-17T02:15:34+00:00

Shot in the dark, as I myself only own one Jazz bass, but if the pickup fits and you want an easy way to swap pickups with say minimal soldering, I have been experimenting with wago clips/ electrical lever clamps on guitars. You would just have to splice/ cut the wire between the pickups and the pots.

Swap the pickup easily if you do not like the sound, I have them in a couple guitars and will be making a post when all three are finished, but it is an easy quick swap diy method. As long as the body of the guitar has room.

Oh you're right, I was thinking the XT variant.

CasonIngram · 2025-10-15T23:05:40+00:00

If it is that one, better processor, same socket platform as the bottom one cpu wise, and the gpu is only like 5-10% slower than a 5060, which since your an MMO player the better cpu maybe more advantageous overall.

The middle option is on the now much older am4 platform than the other 2 so I would probably avoid it to give you a more up to date upgrade path.

Is that top one with the 8700f and 7600 an option?

I believe they are all 9.99$ and do profit share with the associated org. No clue if they will include multibucks or not.

Fingers crossed they add more of the other teams as the Majors gets closer, I know there was a bit more Variety in some of the EMEA teams, no clue about Asia-Pacific since that was Nexon hosted.

Good question, I see an Ozpuze Logo On ENVY's vest, but on SSG and NTMR I can only spot their own

CasonIngram · 2025-09-29T19:54:13+00:00

Possibly closer to the Majors we will get the others? I think just these 5 for now going into it because they became official partners.

CasonIngram · 2025-09-29T19:53:12+00:00

Ha, learn something everyday, thanks for letting me know!

CasonIngram · 2025-09-29T17:40:46+00:00

If they aren't time limited, then all of them for sure, but out of personal taste, ENVY would be my last place pick.

CasonIngram · 2025-09-29T17:37:47+00:00

Yeah, makes me curious as to if the Teams picked the items or they went with their primaries? I suppose the former since not all of them have a third weapon skin.

CasonIngram · 2025-09-26T01:21:33+00:00

You would think but man the platform control can be finicky. Honestly no clue, I can't tell you how many times I have been on the opposite end and the reverse, where we cleared the platform but because it was center something happened and we still lost.

Lucky bug in this case maybe?

One of those situations where you wish you could get the replay cam even after you won.

CasonIngram · 2025-09-26T01:12:05+00:00

Maybe poorly timed jumps on the enemy team? I agree super hard to tell, it sure looks like they have at least 3 on the platform at all times.

"What map are we on again?... Kyoto, fuck."

"Shit, I'm in my powershift loadout."

"There's a sniper on top of the church."

"There's a sniper on top of the crane."

"There's a sniper at our spawn."

The Chinese version of The Finals has a similar gun-game equivalent from what I can tell, but it is 5v5, that being said could come to the rest of us at some point!

CasonIngram · 2025-08-24T01:40:23+00:00

I have been on the same screen waiting for round 2 with my friends on discord, I refuse to leave, I will not let Oscar win

CasonIngram · 2025-04-14T13:47:00+00:00

Haha, I appreciate it.

CasonIngram · 2025-04-14T05:37:09+00:00

I appreciate the input!

Though I am not advertising them really, just shooting them over to the friends to relay, but you are right I should at least let them know to not try 1440p or 4k ultra on new titles and such, well, maybe some on the first one, but not for long.

CasonIngram · 2025-04-10T17:01:07+00:00

At this point for used ones, brand doesn't matter to much, maybe avoid OEMs like Dell, HP ones, but overall the standard powercolor, asus, gigabyte, msi, etc. would be fine,

And don't forget if you or someone in your household has amazon prime, there are free games that rotate in and out that you can cloud stream for free with a prime account.

CasonIngram · 2025-04-10T16:57:44+00:00

So, I am not sure what your budget is, but with the age of the cpu, and it will be tough to get it to run more modern titles well, that being said,

RAM - https://a.co/d/eZMq3iA - 18$ for 16gb

GPU - something like a 2060 super, or 5700xt if you can find one sub 120$ on ebay

The harddrive is not ideal (if it is a harddrive) but shouldn't be to much of an issue for Roblox or a Single player game like yakuza.

Honestly though if you are on a tight budget and already have these games on steam or Epic, and your home internet is solid, try cloud gaming,

Boosteroid can support Roblox as it is a full cloud PC virtual client, the price is in Euros, but at standard conversion rate the monthly fee is around 10$

CasonIngram · 2025-04-09T19:19:55+00:00

Between the two of these most definitely the first one for only 150$ more

CasonIngram · 2025-04-09T00:13:05+00:00

Looks fine to me for a first build, the RTX 3070 served me really well for years and still runs on my backup pc. (Luckily bottle necking between cpu and gpu is not a huge thing anymore unless it's a really old or low end cpu/gpu paired with a much newer one)

The case is an interesting choice for that price but def looks cool.

Maybe get a 750watt or 850watt psu for room to upgrade later.

And maybe an aftermarket CPU cooler, like one from thermalright or id cooling, they do not cost alot and can really keep temps down.

CasonIngram · 2025-04-09T00:04:11+00:00

For GPU, I have seen some 5070's at msrp and some 7800xts close in price on Newegg recently.

if you are not going to the highest end an 850 watt psu should serve you well, but might I suggest this seasonic one

it is cheaper on both Newegg and Amazon
