- These are two very different sounding pickups. I'm still not sure which I prefer; the stock Squier Classic Vibe or the Fender Pure Vintage 65s. Which do you prefer?

LOL, you just talked me out of getting one! I'm only using unaltered guitars right now, and those replacement pickups sound great. So, I'm just going to forget it. Great vid.
Thanks! I am considering going back to the stock pickups on the JMJM.
i enjoyed the classic vibe sound more. the PVs were by no means bad, just didnt prefer it. the CV model i prefer to the JMJM bc of the mustang style bridge it comes with and the narrow tall frets. i dont think the pickups that come stock on the j mascis are bad either but not necessarily what im looking for in a JM. The CV has that sound while also sounding fuller to me. all of these squier classic vibe guitars are so good, i think theyre better than alot of the MIM fender players and what not that are approaching a thousand dollars and over.
The CV definitely does sound fuller and if the bridge wasn't such a problem, I'd be gigging with it more (I really need to find a better solution; Mastery maybe?). The frets on both my JMJM necks are larger (jumbo supposedly) than the original CV neck. Maybe they've changed that with the newer JMJMs? I do like the Squier Jazzmasters more than the other Squiers I've owned or played.
@@anotherheadlessdemo what problem are you having w/ the bridge? when ive set up JMs w/ those bridges i use loctite blue on the height adjust screws but other than that i dont know if ive seen a problems arise from using them. although mastery is the top of the line in terms of bridges for sure.
I have a Mascis JM with the stock pickups, definitely hotter and more midrangey than typical JM pickups…in fact, more like P90’s. I like them in that guitar and don’t plan on changing them. I also have a Wildwood Thinskin JM w/ the 65’s, they are chimier and brighter than the Mascis pickups…exactly as what I hear with your two guitars. One isn’t necessarily better than the other, just different…depends what the player is trying to achieve. If the Mascis was my only JM, I might replace the pickups with something like the 65’s or similar, but because I have that sound covered with my Thinskin already I find the Mascis pickups to be a nice alternative…gives me options.
It's nice having two Jazzmasters that sound different from each other!
Overall, I liked the tonality of the CVs better, but maybe it's because I have one and I'm just familiar with the sound. In the mix, however, the PVs definitely stood out as clearer, punchier and more articulate, no contest. Something about them I didn't like, though - too bright and kind of "metallic" sounding.
I agree. I'm still on the fence with the 65s. I really have to EQ both the amp and guitar differently than any other guitar I own.
Mascis neck is now on the CV...what neck is now on the mascis....? p.s. prefer the stock CV pickups...
I tried PV65 on my Mascis JM and didn't like it better than stock,too trebly to me.I love the round creamy sound of Mascis pu
I've been contemplating that as well, or maybe just getting a different Jazzmaster set (SD Antiquity perhaps).
I much preferred the stock Classic Vibe pickups. They were hotter for sure, and had more snap and chime. The Pure Vintage 65’s were quieter and tamer; not characteristics generally sought by JM players. Of course, you can always boost the volume on your amp(or with a pedal). I can see musical contexts where the Pure 65’s might give the preferred tone. For me, however, that would happen a lesser percentage of the time. Anyway, every player is different and, as they say, YMMV.
I have mixed feelings about the 65s. They can sound more like a Tele if needed, and since I play a lot of country, that comes in handy. Tweaking the EQ and boosting the gain gives them a little more girth, which helps! Anyway, I am considering replacements, although I'm not sure what I would replace them with.
Both extremely ice pickey!! Painful for the audience. Way to bright !
That's why Leo Fender gave us tone controls.
It's crazy thinking the guitar is inherently bad while millions of people are using them
