Bart pre question...

Is the Bartolini preamp Roscoe uses specially made for Roscoe or can you buy them anywhere? I am getting a Roscoe and not sure if I will like the Aguilar obp3 preamp that's in it now.

If the Barts are custom can I buy them from Roscoe?

To be clear, the Bart 3-band we use is a standard Bartolini NTMB-F9/18v preamp, and is readily available from any Bartolini dealer.

Just an update. I decided to change the preamp due to being lost in the mix. The bartolini pre is just what this bass needed! It brought back the Mids I was missing. This bass is a beast. Love it

There's some instruments that just work 'right' with this pre, I have a couple of instruments with the bart that I dearly love!
