    T-T-B on a PJ Pasive

    Line6man could you please draw up a diagram of how you would wire this thing if you were to try it? It sounds like it "might" do what I want it to....I just can't find the gremlen in my attempt @ it and the buzz is crushing.

    how do YOU protect/minimize buckle rash on your bass?

    I started threading my belt from the back right of center and going counter-clock wise so the buckle winds up where the pants tag is on the right...it took a little to get uses to buckling it but there are a few guys in my area that now do it after seeing how I do it.

    Is this a strange way to record a guitar?

    Yeah I do this from time to time, some times I just run them through my PreSonis BlueTube Pre and drive the hell out of it. You can search for free plug ins if you don't have what you need and add the FX after the fact or you can look for a cab/head emulator to get it done. What program are...

    Leather Faced Belt Buckle

    I started lacing my belt starting from the first loop from center on my right, the end comes out of the back center loop...basically puts the buckle on the tag.That way it doesn't matter where you sling your bass the buckle wont hit it.

    JGR's custom built rock bass tube preamp is done!

    The new clips sound great!!! I'm more of a clean tone guy, not a huge fan of distortion for a bass but love the GK growl and wow did you nail it all . Love the idea of pre/post EQ DI (one of my favorite features on my GK) and if you did add a little tweaking ability in the mid voicing, good...

    sonic maximizer? New Amp

    I own a BBE 482 and I have a GK 700 RBII. Thru my Avatar 210/212 set up, nope don't use it, don't really see/hear a need for it. Can't really explain it but it just sound like too much and I can achieve a better results with just the GK EQ (LOVE the GK eq section). Now with my FrankenRig...
