Hehe I actually did cut the pre-amp out myself, but the stock Ibanez wiring is shocking - they leave enough spare wire to pull the whole thing out almost a meter from the guitar :p I just cut the cables and figured the wiring diagram with the new pre-amp would direct me, didn't pay enough...

Ok so gave it the once over today and have fixed it! My pickup wiring wasn't as it seemed, the "2 wires" from the Bartolini MK1's was actually 3 - the black one is linked back to a separate grounding plate the pickup sits on, the thick red / green wire coming from each pickup actually had a...

Thanks for the assistance mate I appreciate it The blend-pot does have the jumpers as you've mentioned, the Blend Pot Ground links back to the Volume pot. I am fairly confident I have the pinout of the jack correct, I had an identical model that I installed in an active Corvette Rockbass with...

Here is a wiring diagram just of the wiring I've done myself + how the volume pot is wired (active/passive switch) Note: there's one ground missing in that diagram, it runs from the Treble pot to the sleeve - all pots are daisy-chain grounded to the treble pot.

I followed the wiring diagram to the best of my ability - as far as I can tell yes I followed it properly heh. Doesn't work in passive mode (no change) Battery is good (rechargable, get 9v + through tip or ring + sleeve) Smaller module's ground was pre-wired to the volume pot, larger module's...

Hi Guys Sorry if this sounds forward, started wiring this thing at 8:30pm and it's now 2AM. I have an Ibanez SR900FM that the pre-amp died in, so got an NTMB 5.2 setup (3band, push-pull active/passive, push-pull mid switch). SR900 comes with Bart Mk1 pickups. The kit came pre-wired so...

That would explain why I had so much trouble getting the tone right then, could never get the low-end tight enough with the muff distortion!

Hysteria sounds like it's got no synth to it.

Just thought I'd chip in here guys... and I really do apologise if everyone knows this stuff already :p . Recently I had problems with my rack unit giving out some tone-killing ground loop noise through the cab, which seriously depressed me consider the amount of money I poured into the new...

What you could try is to do your best to EQ out the bass from the song, save it as a separate lossless file, then invert the phase of that track. Then in an audio editor, load the original track as track 1, and the EQ'd and phase inversed track as track 2. What this will do is cancel out...
