Thanks for that :) Looking forward to hearing it once installed. BTW this is a great site. I only signed up to have a question answered but I'm going to keep using it :) Cheers! Thanks all!

Sorry, that went way over my head but thanks anyway ;)

Will do! Thanks :)

Understood. I have a Tribute G&L and it just sounds so powerful with the electronics that are in it that I want to, not emulate the sound, but the power. If that makes sense? I really don't know much about electronics and preamps etc. But I have played a Marcus Jazz with East preamp and it...

Thanks for that. I love the bass as it is but I was playing a G&L L2000 recently and it sounded so powerful! Hopefully the East preamp will give me a similar boost. :)

Thanks a lot! Appreciated. :)

Stupid question probably, but if I get the East preamp will I be able to switch from active to passive mode like the bass was originally?

Ok, think I understand. Thanks all :)

Even if the preamp is designed for my bass?

Hi all, I have a Marcus Miller signature Jazz bass by Fender. I'm thinking of installing a John East preamp that is designed especially for this bass. Thing is, I replaced the original pickups with active EMGs. The bass is now without a preamp. My question is: can I install the John East preamp...

I started a few years ago when I was about 40. Its tough but its been worth it. Have learned a lot. Never too old! :)

I've seen his videos before on YouTube. Kind of hard not to :) He is good. Don't think I'd pay for it though. Thanks again :)

Will do! Thank you :)

Thanks for that :) Wish he'd devote a whole lesson to it though.

Hi all, Are there any good videos out there about left hand muting (for slap) where the note is not played on an open string but is a fretted note? I need to clean up my technique and make the notes clearer. Any advice or links welcome. Thanks, Dave
