P+MM Bass - Check Out the Sounds of a Precision / Stingray Hybrid

The "Squier-Ray" is back, now with the P pickup added back in! P+MM pickups are a great combination for modding a bass, and so is a coil tap / coil selector mod. If you're thinking about modding your bass, or building a new one, check out these sound samples and see if these might work for you! A wiring diagram for my bass is included also. Have you built a P+MM bass? Or done coil selector mods to your MM pickup? Tell us about it in the comments! Please feel free to skip any part of the video!

Pickups: Stock P pickup + Nordstrand MM4.2. Strings: DR FAT-BEAM FB-40 roundwound. Control settings: For all of the pick demos, controls are all passive, w/ onboard volume and tone set at 100%. For the slap and fingerstyle demos, controls are the same as above, except for some at the end that have the onboard controls bypassed, and use a pedal clone of the Music Man 2EQ preamp (see [video link] for details). This is to show how a Stingray bass sounds with the pickup coils set in different combinations. All demos use Native Instruments Guitar Rig.
