    Choosing pickups and pre-amp for 5 string Jazz bass... Any advice?

    Hey guys, :help: Here's the scoop. I'm the type of guy that doesn't like to spend thousands on a bass. I have found that I can buy a $300-$400 bass and upgrade pickups, strings and sometimes hardware, I get a great sounding bass for less then $1000 when it's all said and done. Anyhow, on...

    Hey guys, I made my choice. I'm going with the EDEN WTX-500 since I have just purchased D210XLT and D115XLT cabs (also from Eden). I have heard the WTX-260 and I loved the warm tone. So I'm looking forward to receiving it (ordered it today... can't wait). I'll keep you guys posted with a short...

    Help choosing an Amp Please

    I guess I forgot to mention that I also have a Sansamp Programmable Bass Driver/DI... so I can run through the house. But I want a rig that I can play in different venues and settings (pubs, lounges, weddings, churches, etc.)... Some of those places won't have a PA system. I've seen some bass...
