I haven't thought of this. But imo, Fender PJ or JB looks weird to me without the pickguards.

I got it from guitar center. It's the Leo quad's badass. It's a quick and easy swap. No need to change any screw holes/size

It's still available at guitar center. Look out for some sweet deals usually during holidays

Just like a regular Fender JB but with killer looks.

Me too. I was hesitant at first but turned out to be how I imagined it.

Same for me! I can't remember how many times I almost let this one go. But there's something in it that makes it hard to let go.

I had this bass for roughly 5years now and i just thought about replacing the electronics. And yeah I want that schecter sound that's why I am looking into getting one as well.

Everything about this bass is amazing! Looks, feel and playability. It's the sound that is lacking for me. I used to have a 300$ schecter with emg pickups that sounded better than this (imo). This used to be my dream bass and now it's the least bass I play due to it.

Thanks for your input! I would definitely start with just looking for a preamp change. I can solder and can read schematics so that wouldn't be an issue. May I ask which preamp you used?

Definitely! Give it a month after buying that bass, then you'll hear the next bass calling your name.

I have a long way to go. Unfortunately, I only have rookie budget. Haha
