Hello my dudes, So I bought this 18 year old Epiphone Ripper for 180 bucks the other day. I just fell in love with it instantly. That beautiful maple neck and a slim wide ripper formed body, damn! Love the look of the bass. Anyways I'm in the process of hot rodding it. I already chose the...

Can't say enough good stuff about the NOLL. The cool thing about it is that the preamp goes on a 9 volt battery, which is much appreciated with the limited space in the cavity, when the old preamp only ran on a 9 volt also. And yeah it's nice to be able to shift between the 2 mids. (High and...

That's really beautiful man! Really wanted to get another SR model, just totally paralyzed from the new CITES rules on rosewood, so THOMANN won't ship it to my country. That poplar burl is just really beautiful. Always wanted at least one bass in my arsenal to be with a burl of some kind! What...

That beast has been on my G.A.S. list (4 stringed version) for some time now. Can't resist that beautiful poplar top burl!! How's the finish on it??

Well I've installed a lot of preamps and pickup systems over the years, cause of our lack of technicians in my country (I live in Greenland), so I have seen a lot of insides on basses. But I would first of all say that the NOLL preamp was very easy to install and was very well made. Klaus Noll...

Just got this beast a couple of days ago, finally after a long wait cause of those damn new rules on rosewood. What can I say, love the bass!! Already upgraded it with Aguilar super doubles and a NOLL 4 band preamp ❤️ Holy smokes!

As far as I know, there isn't anything better for the Money when it comes to the SR300 series. I've only heard people talk greatly about the basses and I just ordered an SR300 from my local music shop, but it won't be here before mid april. The andertons on youtube have made video reviews of...

Hahahahaha, pretty much sums up my reaction and every bass store :D

I feel ya man!! My problem is that I do some amateur luthier stuff on the side also. I don't buy too many basses, because that phase has passed. The problem now is, that if I'm not happy with a bass. (feel, pickups, Electronics, etc.) I start upgrading and working on them. As it might be a bit...

This is the message I got from Thomann as explanation for the export rules: Here is the official explanation for this situation: The Convention of International Trade of Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna (CITES) held a conference in October 2016 in Johannesburg, South Africa where it was...

If it wasn't for those goddamn new rosewood importation rules, I would have had the bass now :crying:

Yup, they make these in different colors each year. Thought it was the only model that looked like this, but they've made the same models in blue, orange, red etc. some of the years before this. I was totally blown away!

Sign me in!! Just ordered this beauty! Can't wait to get it. Ordered a aguilar dual coil and a noll preamp for the beauty! Played one of these basses some time ago and I was absolutely caught by the playability they have. I wasn't too happy about the Electronics, but it's easy switching them...

If u thought about getting a really fat and special slap bass sound, Victor Wooten like, which preamp would you choose?? :)

Was it possible to install a pope preamp into the SR?? I'm thinking about doing the same, but I need to know if there is room in the cavity for the pope preamp, because the bodies of the SR's are really thin and light. (Which I love) Thinking about buying an 4 string SR premium, but need to know...
