This post is old enough to drink in the States, and was helpful.

The BOM on that is calectro F2-847 - and I cannot find much on it in a quick search. I have the Magnum 2 and remove the batteries since I replaced the jack... until I play, then put batteries in it is an odd setup

I just Flagged this ad in Phoenix [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] I hate scammers

Chasers is a little on the small side. Were it not a bit of an island, Joe's Grotto would be a good choice, for sound, lighting and venue quality. I know the booking and ownership there as good acquaintances, but not sure that would be a good spot. (32nd St and Thunderbird, right off the 51)...

I can bug Jason at Chasers about this, I have played in that club almost as much as my house. Not sure if I should brag about that.

I would be interested in getting together! I can bring a few basses,(Musicman Stingray 5 HH, Peavey T40) a cheap Dean acoustic bass, a small combo (Ampeg SP210) and a bigger halfstack (Ampeg 410HLF with Hartke LH500) I am not sure if I have any plans for 9/16, as I am married, so you know...

Anyone know where to find parts for one? I have the 3 band eq one, and it took a bad hit before i owned it. The pick guard and the circuit board cracked off where the 1/4" jack is. I was able to McGuyver the board and make it function for awhile but now, until I can restore it, I leave it alone...

Break the current plateau... Just joined a progressive speed metal band. That will challenge me!

Thanks to David Raven Moon for his words of wisdom. I continuity checked everything as I went and found no shorts. I kept the bass unplugged and in it's case when not in use. (in response to :) I use Lion or Ni/MH. I performed the bypass. I am using the EQ on my amp for tone so did...

I will start a new thread for my follow up here.

it is the battery issue. Unless I buy a new 9 volt, or fully charge my rechargeable after every rehearsal, I get a different response from my total rig. I tested this without any pedals, even my tuner. I tested this on several amps. It happens every time. After I play for an hour and leave the...

That was my guess Ha ha... I hate being new to something. I can wire two buildings for full communication across a city but a bass pre is eluding me.

Thanks for the info. With the bypass in I get virtually zero output unless I add a battery. I am not sure I am up for a total rewire tonight, but I want to get the sound of the pickup alone to at least hear it. This is a fun exploration of my bass electronics.

I am actually looking at a schematic to do that now. I have read about 10 articles about the MK1 pick up that mentions them being designed to be passive. I do not have links to them but it was from some tech heads. (Been reading crap for a few days.) I am not sure the schematic is...

I am looking for similar. If I find it I will post here.
