I'm not keen on the NTMB I've fitted to my 44-01, 30hz is I think way to low for the Bass Control. I'm not over keen on the Mk4's either to be honest but that's another story. Supertanker, could you tell me which USA Preamp you have and thanks in advance. Cheers.

Hey Folks, I treated myself to a new 44-01 a couple of weeks back. I was / am very impressed with the fit and finish, playability etc but wasn't to keen on the harsh tone (imo) from the MK1's and factory pre. I spent the day upgrading to MK4's and a NCBT Pre and I'm certain something ain't quite...

Hi Doug. It sounds to me like it's the master level on Graphic section that's failed. Unfortunately i didn't manage to get my first BT-350 fixed due to not being able to find any replacement parts for the graphic section. I always had a soft spot for the amp though and I loved the tone of the...

I did an outdoor gig at the weekend with my Warwick Thumb NT, 7pro and "sealed" Laney NX810. The seating area in front of the stage was approx 100ft x 100ft. I had plenty of volume at 2 oclock and fantastic tone with no PA support. You'll have plenty of compression with the 7 pro at 9 oclock...

Great Clip. I couldn't coax any bottom out of the TTE500 for love nor money,In and out the door in 2 weeks. The STR however, I wish I'd have been in a position to keep hold of it. :cool:

Sooooooo, a new berg 210 on the horizon then ?

I use an SVT 7pro my my Thumb NT4 and love the tone with my sealed Laney NX810 or pair of Berg AE112's . As above, I think I'd try a few different cabs before you move.The 610 you have may be working against you ? Although it's not my bag ( I'm more of a Blues guy) I've just had a quick listen...

Good luck waiting for reply from TE but in the meantime. I had one of these up until a couple of months ago and it's a great head.,a little on the heavy side but it more than makes up for it in what it gives you in performance. Try switching from the valve to solid state pre and on 50% gain, If...

Hi Guys, The Pickups are mounted on the original springs. I'm going to change them out for foam today and see what that does. I kinda figured that if I don't brush my fingers on the casing the problem would go away, I was using that as an example of the problem. Cheers ddnidd1, they are indeed...

Hey Folks, Thought I'd ask over here as it's time for bed in the UK so hoping for a possible answer in the morning.. I fitted a new pair of Bartolini 9CBJD J Pickups and a new John East U-retro into my Warwick Nt Thumb bass today. Tone wise the upgrades are a 100% great result however the...

Job done, out with the old and in with the new. It's no small thing to say that the Barts and Jon East U-retro have totally transformed my bass. The D and G are sooooo much more in the mix now that I can't understate it enough. Thin and weedy before, now they have beef and cut through so much...

What about TKS cabs from Sweden. They're getting very good reviews over in the UK. :cool:

I finally decided to bite the bullet, U-retro and a set of Barts incoming. I'll post the results once I have it all fitted. Fingers crossed for the desired result ! :nailbiting:

I'm loving my Crate BT-350 at the moment. It stands me at £50 which is roughly $65 give or take. I had one a few years back and it died on me. I've searched for a couple of years to find one and lo and behold one comes up for sale last month not 2 miles away from home. Built by Ampeg, sounds...

Cheers Guys, it's actually an HD210 that I was contemplating pairing with my current AE112. It's a bit too pricey of a gamble to take really but trying to find an AE210 over here is like trying to find rockin' horse poop. :meh:
