    Adding an EMG DC to ray 34

    You'd probably need the EMG Music Man pickup as well to use the quick-connect cables modern EMG's use

    Battle of the cheap amps, Laney RB9 or Peavey Mark IV.

    Like I say this is my first rig so I can't say whether or not the cab I have is better, but I've also heard Peavey cabs are well built. It's not likely you can try out any cabs in gig situations before buying it so I'd say go for what you think will last.

    Battle of the cheap amps, Laney RB9 or Peavey Mark IV.

    I played my first gig the other week with a Laney RB9 through the 'recommended' RB410. For gigs on a budget I'd say go for it, this is my first move away from a combo and I love it.

    Boss Bass Overdrive ODB-3

    Could you ship to the UK? If so I'll pay the shipping, provided it's not way too high. Lewy.

    Passive EMGs

    I have to say I did expect the range of opinions and most of all wanted to hear that they're not as bad as some people make out, since they're cheaper and easy to install. I'm not looking to spend a huge amount of money on the bass, but I still want reasonable tone. I'm leaning towards putting...

    Passive EMGs

    Thanks guys, I'll probably hold off for a bit longer and get a P set and a 35DC for the bridge, since I will generally be playing heavier music, Lamb of God, Metallica etc. Lewy.

    Passive EMGs

    Thanks for the advice, and the quick reply. I'll keep my eyes and options open and post how things go on here when I finish my mini project. Lewy.

    Passive EMGs

    Hey guys, I'm still fairly new here so there may be a thread discussing this but I can't seem to find it. Point me in the right direction if it's been covered. I'm looking to put a little project together with an old P Bass copy body I have lying around, and I'm looking to put some passive...

    Tanglewood Rebel 5k

    Hey guys, this is my first TB post and I was just wondering if many people on here has, or has once had, a Tanglewood Rebel 5k? I have one that I routed the bridge jazz pickup cavity out towards the neck to get a reasonable Stingray tone, using an EMG MM5TW. I'll upload some pictures eventually...

    Concentric bass/treble pre

    I'll soon be buying the EMG BTC Control for my bass, simply because I already have an EMG pickup so I can get the solderless installation done myself. I have very little wiring experience and don't want to risk anything or pay someone else to do it for me.
