This ultimately comes down to what control knobs you plan to use on the bass. If you are just ordering the wiring harness, this option is not relevant.įor this kit I offer the choice of what spec of pot shaft you require. If you choose the pickup additionally, you are given the choice of a white, or black pickup cover. Lead times for each option chosen can be found right at the top of this product listing. If you don't wish to have the pickup and simply want the wiring kit/harness, then you can certainly do so here too. If you would like to order my wiring kit pre-wired to a McNelly Broncomaster pickup, select it via the drop down menu.
FENDER MUSICMASTER BASS SCHEMATIC FULL
Full description and demo video for this pickup can be found HERE. This pickup was designed by Tim McNelly specifically for the Bronco and Musicmaster bass, it features a true bass pickup design and has a great double pole piece design and hotter output for a full tone.
FENDER MUSICMASTER BASS SCHEMATIC UPGRADE
I offer this pre-wired loom/harness kit as a complete upgrade alongside a pre-wired McNelly Broncomaster bass pickup. With or without McNelly Broncomaster bass pickup? This, along with the McNelly Pickups replacement pickup, specifically designed for Bronco and Musicmaster turns this bass into a serious tonal instrument. I am a big fan of short scale basses, and the Musicmaster is one of the best!, So I looked at creating a 'drop-in' wiring harness upgrade, using the high quality components I use on my other harnesses such as CTS 'TVT' pots, Pure Tone multi contact jack, Gavitt wire and vintage style yellow mustard tone capacitor. Please note this if you place a full kit order. Harness & Pickup deal set - The McNelly Broncomaster pickup is currently on made to order basis, and the currently McNelly leadtime is 5-6 weeks from time of order. Thanks for your patience whilst I get your harness made! This turnaround time doesn't include the transit time. The current turnaround time for a harness orders is around 5-7 working days depending on quantity of orders in at the time and your order will be updated accordingly when it is dispatched. Heater voltage is good at all the tubes.I usually make harnesses to order, due to the variety of spec options that could be chosen across the whole range. I measure 6.6 volts across the terminals, it's a #47 bulb, but it doesn't light. Only other weird thing is the pilot light doesn't light up. I checked the input jacks, and they are functioning (38K on one, 78K on the other, measured just before the first cap). That increased voltage is the only thing I can see wrong. The next resistor inline drops it to 290. Next resistor is 10K and it only drops the voltage to 294. The first resistor is a 1K and it only drops it to 318 volts. Power tubes seem to be making a lot of heat, more than what I'm used to. Voltages are a little high, but not extreme. I traced the schematic twice, everything seems to be in place. The sound is very weak/thin and always well below the volume of the hum. There is a little amplification on a guitar. When the volume is fully off, there is no hum. I fired it up for the first time today, and it makes a loud hum, through the speaker, level of the hum is adjustable with the volume knob. It's quite simple, but unique in that it used a transformer as a phase inverter rather than a tube. I just finished a build on a Fender MusicMaster Bass amp.
