In any case, the bass could use a set-up and the jack seems to be loose. I think the bass has Rock Masters non-tapered right now, I may change to tapered. After those issues are worked out, I should be good to go!

Hi Michele, Just FYI: Theres a section in the 'Electric Bass' section of this Forum to discuss this type of topic further. Maybe going forward we could take it there just to keep this particular section specific to the topic?
In the meantime........
Yes, set-up is everything! I would highly recommend trying the Smith Medium Taper Cores. You can order them directly from Ken if you can't get them locally. That would be the time to dial in a complete set-up for your playing style and I'd have no doubt you would be "good to go".
BTW - If you're so inclined and have the right tools, you could tighten that jack up easily. Just be careful is all.
