Details

UPDATE-This will work even if your bass does not have a battery compartment. If you don’t have a battery compartment, I’ll include a 12 volt compact alkaline battery and holder that will fit inside the control cavity under the preamp and power it up just fine for approximately 55 hours of play time. This is a perfect solution when you want to add the flexibility of an active preamp (with a 3 band EQ and a vintage tone control) to a bass without a battery compartment-and NO SOLDERING REQUIRED! No battery life worries, either. This preamp has an active passive switch which will still give you volume, balance and vintage tone control operation even with a dead battery.

Brand new Sire Marcus Miller 3 band Heritage jazz bass preamp with the best of both worlds-a vintage tone control (like Sadowsky VTC) that works in both active and passive mode, and 3 band active EQ with sweepable midrange. These sound incredible-super low noise and infinite tone shaping possibilities. Also has active/passive toggle switch for use with no battery.

This is a solderless version that allows you to make all the connections with just bare wires connected to the screw terminals. Repeat-NO SOLDERING! Screw terminals for attchment of pickups, battery, output jack and multiple ground leads. It runs on either 9, 12 or 18 volts (one or two 9 volt batteries or single 12 volt). Includes wiring diagram and two new 9 volt battery connectors. Please note the control panel has clear protective film over it in the photos resulting in glare in the photo. Free shipping in USA. Pay with PayPal. Check out my stellar TB feedback!

Is this the same version that has center detents for the stacked master volume/master tone control and the Mid/Mid Sweep control?
Update-There are no detents on the master volume or passive tone controls. There are center detents on the balance, bass, midrange and treble knobs.

Yeah, I know its an old ad, but... Two questions: 1.) Still available, and; 2.) Will this retrofit a regular Fender? Im looking for something to stick in a MIM J5.

Thanks!

Well, you'll need to drill a hole for the input jack.

And yes, it will fit any Jazz Bass

I just bought one of these from "retrosynth" and I put it in a new Fender Squier Classic Vibe 5 String Jazz Bass. What a huge improvement over the stock active 2 band that came in it. I recommend these highly if you want to get a good quality active preamp for a very reasonable price!
