Both pickups are microphonic and the body is made of plywood.The neck was fitted badly in that the scale lenght was out with approx 1" The neck is a T40 neck in perfect condition.

Since I noticed that the leatherish cover on the front coil of the neck PU is worn away, I'm wondering if the string is hitting the pickup or if that leather shield helps with that in some way. Is there something I could do to that shield to fix or replace it possibly?

I sat down with her for a few hrs and gave her a good cleaning, and nice setup. I decided to also check out the electronics as well. I noticed the neck PU is working as designed. With the tone control all the way up it is a single coil and with tone control around 7 it is a humbcker. However the bridge PU is a different story. It seems to be stuck in single coil mode. The tone control acts more like a volume control. If I have ...

Ive got an early 80's t40 with bladed pickups. They sound good, but not great.
Im playing through a 1971 Ampeg V4 with the two matching 4x12 cabs.

The t40 sounds alright, but the Geddy Lee Jazz Bass sounds great! I'd like to find a way to get the t40 up to par.

Any suggestions?]]> PEAVEY T-40 DISCUSSION Sun, 14 Dec 2008 18:20:19 GMT http://peaveyt40.forumotion.com/peavey-t-40-discussion-f4/suggest-replacement-pick-ups-for-me-t311.htm#1924 http://peaveyt40.forumotion.com/peavey-t-40-discussion-f4/suggest-replacement-pick-ups-for-me-t311.htm http://peaveyt40.forumotion.com/peavey-t-40-discussion-f4/rattling-some-help-t180.htm wanderlusterer Evening gang!

I own a Custom shop Peavey 6 string cirrus and the birdseye on it's fretboard is only slightly better.

Thinking of getting a T-40 a bit later this year. Christmas present to myself and all that. Now, at the moment I have a Rick 4003 and a Fender Jaguar bass, and it'd be nice to get something with a totally different character. It seems like the t-40 sounds somewhat similar to a Rick, which leads me to my question. I've always liked the sound of Sting rays, by which i mean a sort of trebly dry sound. How feasible is it to put some MM pickups from bartolino into a T-40? And ...
