    Neve Pre-amp clone

    anybody here try to clone the Dingwall Neve preamp? I have a couple LHZ's from @AgingEngineer for a couple basses, and some multi coil pickups @slowburnaz made for the Lusithand Wal style preamp on another bass, I'll try the Underhill version someday. Lots of you guys are good at this...

    Nice! Well hopefully a 6er wenge will fall on my lap just like the 5 I found on a whim. If not, bubinga is nice too. There was a 5 string bubinga a couple weeks ago on reverb with a nice grain but i had just picked up my wenge. Don't want to be hoarding all the nice Cirri

    Jumped on the Cirrus bandwagon. Found a used US for a good price, figured i can return it if it sucked. Turns out you guys were right, they're pretty nice. Comfortable neck, preamp is nice, radiused pickups are a sweet bonus Now the cons: The action was way too high from what I'm used to...

    There's no "best", just your usual aftermarket Bart, Nordstrand, Aguilar, EMG, etc.

    Music nomad f1 fretboard oil works great. For the neck and body, if there's no gloss, any high quality furniture wax will work. I use warwick wax because that's what I got

    The Official Warwick Club (Part 6)

    Hey Jason, I know you asked Bart but I've been using Howard's feed n wax for at least 15 years, same bottle, and never had an issue. Works good. However, I bought a new brass nut from warwick and added a tin can of warwick wax to my order. Can honestly say the actual warwick wax works way...

    What's that little mini desk thing you got your preamp pedal on? Looks interesting

    Fender Bassman Pedals

    That's too bad, I'm a fan of the overdrive on the Rumble cabs, don't need a new amp or cab though

    I'm assuming that bassman driver will sound like what's on the rumble combos.

    The Official MTD USA Thread

    That helps a ton, thank you. Looks like I'll be better off selling mine instead of doing some mods that probably won't even work as well as just getting a 17mm mtd. That's too bad, absolutely love everything else about it

    The Official MTD USA Thread

    Has anyone here converted their 535-24 from a 19mm bridge to 17mm? I love my mtd but that string spacing is wild after playing Warwicks for nearly 2 decades. I figure the neck will be way to wide if I change the bridge to a tighter string spacing. Should I just sell it and pick up a 535 or...

    Nobody? Also interested in maybe the PJ style Euro, but again not sure if a humbucker will fit completely covering the P pickup route. If anyone can measure the outside dimensions of the P pickup that'll be great, thank you.

    I'm thinking of picking up one of the Spector Rebops with the two humbuckers as a little project bass and route the pickup cavities bigger for two MM sized pickups If anyone has one on hand can you give me a measurement between the bridge and the neck pocket? I'm not sure if I'll be able to...
