They are coming out when I put my new Bardolini's into my Fender Lyte

I would have thought that when I toiuch the bridge and it goes stumm, I myself are the path to ground, am I getting this wrong?

Does any of you know if the bridge is actually grounded on the lytes? Thanks Nik

Just bought the same pick-ups and the Bartolini 2 Band NTBT Preamp, 4 Pots – HR-4.5 - HR-4.5AP/918 (the one with the active / passive switch) for my Fender Lyte. I am looking very much forward to putting them into mine.

Pickups to arrive today. Waiting for the Royal Mail delivery as I am writing this. :hyper:

I am planning to replace the pickups with the Bartolini 4-String Classic PJ-Bass - 8CBP + 9CBJD - Bartolini Pickups & Electronics After that, once my funds have been replenished, I plan to replace the electronics with the Bartolini 2 Band NTBT Preamp, 4 Pots - HR-4.5 - Bartolini Pickups &...

yeah, It took a bit of digging and looking around, and I seem to have found the place to buy the pair of pups I need/want. Defo could do with a little bit of marketing effort to update some distributor pages on their website and communicate their product efforts a bit better.

that is indeed what he meant ;)

Thank you very much! I will check out the links and then contact them directly if i can't find them elsewhere. The bass best gear site has them, but a timely delivery to the UK seems quite expensive (not sure I want to go down the $10 option and it being literally 'shipped' over.

Hi, I am after a set of "4-String b-axis PJ-Bass – b-axis PB4 + J44J", and can't find it anywhere. Bartolini seems to have a very thinly sown distributor network, just some small-arse (sorry for the term, but it seems so fitting) distributors, I am in the UK. Which then dont have it in stock or...

I have got one as well and experienced exactly the same battery drainage issue. I am 90% decided now to route a separate compartment out next to the electronics cavity for a dedicated battery box, so I can easily take it out when I am not playing. The last one lasted about 2 days, bass on its...

Hi, has anyone ever put Bartolini 4-String Classic Bass - 8CBP + 9CBJD on their Fender Lyte? Is it worth it? I have a soapbar Bartolini pickup on another bass of mine and quite like the sound characteristics there. What do you guys think? Thankyou!

bloody switched on drummer that is, very tight rhythm section!!

Are you making this political now? The US (thank god I dont live there) is bad enough as it is!! [EDIT: this is of course an IRONIC comment. Please do not take it literal!]

They can pretty much take me down emotionally in about 4mins from whatever high I might be on at that point. Then I need "In The Stone" from EW&F to pick me up. Just the intro of that song picks me up EVERY.SINGLE.TIME
