Using your Fender Pure Vintage 1966 Jazz Bass Pickup Set is easy. First, make sure your bass is turned off. Then, install the pickups using the included hardware following the standard installation process for Jazz Bass pickups. Once installed, turn on your bass and amp, and you're ready to play. When using the pickups, keep in mind that they are designed to give you that classic vintage sound, so adjust your amp settings to enhance that tone. As for maintenance, keep the pickups clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe them down after each use. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can affect their performance. If you're not using the bass for an extended period, it's a good idea to store it in a cool, dry place. Also, be careful when handling the cloth - covered lead wires to prevent damage.
