:help:For reason I don't want to mention on this thread so I don't get heckled.:hiding: Here is the question.

Does a 1/4 DB sound full (more like a 3/4?) if you put a pickup on it like a Bassmax or Realist or David Gauge or............. and plug it into a nice amp like AI or Genz-Benz or............


As a side note I spent the last hour searching threads here and didn't find the exact info I was looking for.

:DI learned things like, you can fit a 3/4 db int a VW bug, trying to find a 1/4 bass in houston is hard, a cello is not a 1/2 DB(that one I new) and many more things.

I have a quarter sized Kay and believe I get a pretty decent sound amplified. I use a Turner UB-1 pickup. I have played it through my GK MBE but I get a much bigger sound using my GK800RB with my Accugroove Tri112.
