    How do i get my Kubicki to sound like my passive Dingwall?

    Thank you all for your feedback and suggestions. I believe my Dingwall Super J is a 34-32ish scale, which would be very similar to what the Kubicki is with the D extender open. I’m going to try some Dingwall strings on my Kubicki to see how that works out. I don’t want to destroy the bass...

    How do i get my Kubicki to sound like my passive Dingwall?

    I love my Dingwall basses, old ABZ with the rectangular pickups (2) and a Super J. Both are only passive with the 4 position rotary switch. Love the playability and tones I get, but I have a fretting hand issue that is relieved somewhat when playing my shorter scale Kubicki. I love playing...

    Kubicki pickups; what's inside?

    I have an ‘86, original owner, and I love the feel, neck, playability of the bass. I’m not crazy about the tone, I think it’s just too hifi for me. Anyone have insight on replacing either the pickups or the circuits?

    Have you tried capturing the sound from the Stomp & pedals that you love on the QC and comparing? I just recently acquired a QC and have a few Stomp patches I’m a fan of and was planning on trying just this, but I don’t have the Stomp right now. Would be interesting to know if this works.

    SOLD Mayones Cali 4 #79

    I tried using the Subnup TC pedal with the Cali 4, but just wasn’t crazy about the octave down, it seemed overly boomy to me. I’ve used the DigiTech Drop pedal turned down the full octave and that is much better to my ear. Blending with the Dry signal is ok, but you can dial in by percentage...

    SOLD Mayones Cali 4 #79

    I recently acquired a Mayones Cali 4 and it is a legit damn nice bass! I’ve paired it with a Digitech Drop pedal and it sounds damn good an octave down. Fun to play easy chords on and great to sit on the couch and noodle. I’m looking forward to traveling with this little beast as well, awesome...

    I’ve never had the pleasure of playing a Sandberg… can you compare the neck feel for me, to say a Fender P or J?
