    New body, wrong pickguard.

    I'm just going to return it and go bare. Who needs pickguards anyway!

    New body, wrong pickguard.

    No, it's a WD pickguard. For '70 Jazz bass. The same that I bought with the older body. That one I had to sand down to fit. Funny thing is, that body had two neck pickups. The Fiesta red one, had two bridge pickups. So I had to sand down to make the neck pickup fit inside the pocket. And...

    New body, wrong pickguard.

    So, I had to replace a Jazz bass body. I have a parts bass, Japan precision neck, Boxer series and it had a unidendified jazz body. I bought a new one and bought a new pickguard. bought a pickguard for a 20 fret neck, but there's a small gap in the neck pocket. It's really not that big of a...

    Different tunings, do I need several basses?

    Either get a five string or different tuning. The last gig I did, I really regret selling my five string bass. Too much different keys and I like to have one bass to play through a gig. I have one bass in C# standard. That one is a lifesafer.

    MBD3 vs VMT vs DCX

    I have both MDB and DCX. I prefer DCX in OD mode. The DCX is easy to dial in and MDB is a lot of knob turning. DCX doesn't sound really that good on it's own but in a mix its killer. I like the MDB but it probably is too transparent for my taste and I bought it hoping it would be my...

    I think it was "Input gain +6dB/boost engaged +14dB/Full boost +34dB"

    Don't know yet, depends on gain staging. there's a slight boost in distortion with the boost all the way CCW. So MBD on low gain, boost some more hair and MBD2 for full on distortion. We'll see when i have tested it a bit more with my band and on my own amplifier. Sounded good at home, but...

    Ahh, just picked up my new MDB3 at the post office, and now there's a silver one as well? Where did my money go?

    Has the SansAmp BDDI fallen out of style?

    Yeah, had a programmable BDDI for years. Wanted something different. Been through a lot of preamp DI pedals (A LOT!) and seeking another sound than the BDDI. Bought the V2 version and couldn't be happier to be back. Now I want the V1 again. Only difference now is that I only use it for FOH...

    Oh, yeah. Just ordered the MDB-3. But it's a long way, all the way to Norway. Can't wait! :cool:

    Fender vs. Sadowsky Preamp: Bass Bonedo

    Both are good, just recently changed to the Sadowsky pre myself from Fenders preamp. I can't live without a tone pot. That just makes the sadowsky preamp more useable when you can use it in both active and passive. Nothing wrong with Fenders onboard preamp, pretty good also. But yeah, good...
