Mark ,
I have notice a lack of output on my 4001(1979)bridge pick-up. Is there anything I can do, or check to see that everyting is OK ?
Will it be necesasary to replace it ?

I had a '78 4001 once, and I had to have the pickup rewound and eventually replaced. (Maybe they were cranking out a lot of them at the time and they eventually fell apart? I don't know.) Do those basses have .0047uf caps on the treble pickup?
I'm in over my head here, but that's my 2ยข. On to the experts.

The .0047 cap is there between the switch and the volume pot , it is the small one under the mess of wire .Replace it with a piece of wire , that will fix your problem .
