    NBD: Double Reverse P

    Old thread, but here is mine! Neck pickups is at the normal place, just flipped. Bridge pickup is placed so that the coil for EA is at the same place as the bridge pickup on a 70's jazz. Preamp is an Underhill Cali Classic. This gives separate filters for each pickup. Body is ash, and it was...

    Fernandes FAB-180 pickup replacement

    Thanks Mike!!!! Yes, mine came without the PS5. Been searching for schematics for one. Can't be that difficult to make. But no schematics has been found. I do use wireless most of the time. So I'll either make me a short cable to go between the bass and the sender unit. Or option 3. So these...

    Fernandes FAB-180 pickup replacement

    So I got me a FAB 180. And I have a problem! With a standard guitar cable I can only get the neck pickup. If I use a stereo (insert) cable I get each pickups on separate plugs. If I switch the leads on the output jack, I get the bridge pickup. So the electronics works fine. If I wire the 2 leads...

    Mipro vs Senn vs Shure

    Traditional IEM's sends audio over UHF. Audio over UHF has a very limited frequency response and limited dynamic range. This is "fixed" with electronic wizardry in the sender and receiver. Digital systems, like Mipro MI-909 sends O and 1 over UHF, and has none of these limitations. But you get...

    One of a kind MTD Grendel?? Look!!

    It's 34". I believe they didn't do 35" before they switched design. And the b-string is just as tight as my MTD AG5, with 35" scale. So why bother with 35"?

    One of a kind MTD Grendel?? Look!!

    Old thread, but why not! Around 2000 I bought a new Grendel. It was fretless, and had the other headstock design. And exposed poles. It was a nice bass and I had it for years before I moved on. Recently I picked up this fretted Grendel for next to nothing, with the same headstock design as...

    Genz Benz Streamliner 900... blue interior light out....

    Have the same problem with my Streamliner 600. But I live in Norway, and the amp was bought from England (no distributor in Norway). Is there a quick fix for this? Returning it would be costly :( Otherwise a great amp!

    Made an enclosure for my Mesa 400+

    I try not to, and usually place my beer on the keyboard or the guitar amp. ;) On the serious side, I've had people empty a pint of beer in a mixer! But other stuff, like plectrums might fall down. And I do tend to use the amp as a place to put notes/sheets and other stuff. They will block the...

    Made an enclosure for my Mesa 400+

    Looks nice! But, if I may make one suggestion... The venting on the top is scary. If someone spills a beer/coke/whatever fluid, the amp has had it. I would have made the case a bit taller, maybe 1U, and without the hole in the top. Then you get cooling, without that beer trap. Besides that, it...

    G&L M2X000...Users? Soundclips?

    How do you control that? And doesn't the neck pickups alone sound very boomy?

    G&L M2X000...Users? Soundclips?

    I have now made a quick recording of my M2500, trying to display the different sounds you could get out of it with these switches. Bear in mind that this is recorded on the kitchen table while serving supper to my 2-year old... Strings haven't been changed since I got the bass. Besides all this...
