    Customer service is alive and well!

    Happy to say that there are companies and people out there who are doing it right. Had a very minor issue with my Bergantino Forte recently. I sent an email to their general info address, got a very timely response from @Jim Bergantino who then went above and beyond to resolve the problem...

    Plugins

    I have a couple of the UA Ampeg plugins that I like OK, but the one that really surprised me is the Gallien Kruger 800RB. It's my go-to nowadays. Highly recommend it.

    Switching string gauge on Sandberg TM4

    I was faced with the exact same question recently and opted to switch to the .45-.105's. The nut slots were a bit small but seemed to work OK and did not appear to have any affect on the action. I did a very minor job setting intonation and the thing feels great. Very happy to be using a...

    Club Bergantino! Let's See Those Rigs!

    It's a club joining kind of day! Here's a picture of my forté and HD210 with my #1. I bought the amp when I was still playing really cheap basses. It's way smarter than I am... the more I learn and the more time I spend with it, the more I appreciate how special it is. Thanks to Jim for doing...

    Club Sandberg (part 2)

    Partners in good taste! I would like to join the club, please. I picked up this Marlowe DK used a year or so ago as a possible replacement for a MIJ Geddy Lee Jazz I had. They both had Fralin pickups in them (which I am a HUGE fan of) but the build quality and feel of the Sandberg was so great...

    SPECTOR® Owners Club

    To paraphrase Groucho Marx, I wouldn't normally want to join a club that would have me as a member. However, I would like to join this one. I've had this 2015/16 poplar burl Euro LX for a few years now. I had the guys at Mike Lull's swap the original Tonepump and Bartolinis with an EMG BTS pre...

    Humbled

    I was just telling someone the other day, "you know, back in the Tanks of Zen days, Dan had really great tone... except for that 75 Hz thing. He just never could get that worked out." Don't give up, sir! I still love your playing :)>

    How does a Bergantino Forte handle active/passive basses?

    Jim - thanks for the response! I think you understand the question correctly, and I can certainly readjust per bass. I suppose I was just wondering if there was a built-in mechanism for handling this situation, similar to an active/passive switch on some other brands... or if it made sense to...

    How does a Bergantino Forte handle active/passive basses?

    I'm playing a Spector with EMG's and a passive Sandberg with Fralins through a Forte. The Sandberg is a recent acquisition and replaced a Geddy Lee Jazz with Fralins. I didn't notice any difference with the Jazz, but the Sandberg seems to be such low output that, after setting the gain level...
