Fishing for thoughts/opinions from people who have experience with these DIs.

Looking to replace Barts in my Lakland DJ5 w/East DJ Retro pre.

I picked up the Squire not only because it was quite "cost friendly", but it does sound good as is. I did some research on the Duncan Designed pickups and found that they, like the bass itself are referred to as "mid-grade". I thought I could increase the punch and overall tonal quality by going...

I recently purchased a passive Squire Jazz 4 loaded with "Duncan Designed" pups. Seeking advice and opinions on replacement pups.

I've been looking for a USA Cirrus 5 and yours is certainly a beauty.

Is this bass still available?

Somebody help me out here - I have a Lakland Darryl Jones 5 and can't seem to find a set of strings long enough for it. Any suggestions?

What's the best pickup?

Hi Adam, I've been playing bass for 35 years and just now starting to do session work on a regular basis around Atlanta. What is the standard rate for a non-union musician in regard to this type of work?

I bought a new P bass and installed some EMGs (18v config). The tone is great, but I'm thinking about adding an onboard preamp.

He also stated that a building at a different locale had to be rented until repairs could be made to the damaged East shop.

I contacted John East directly. He states that the shop sustained major flooding, setting them back, obviously quite significantly. He sez that there won't be any retros available til the end of June.

Best Bass Gear is who I usually get my goodies from, but they won't have the P Retro until December.

Been all over the internet searching, but alas, no luck.

Anyone have experience with this preamp?
