Hi,
Wondering if anyone has heard both the Trickfish J-Core preamp AND the Guitar Fuel SBK Tone Monster preamp?
I'm trying to decide which one to get. I'm leaning towards the J-Core, with its super neat and tidy "everything attached to a circuitboard" design, but if the Tone Monster actually...
Hi all,
A few weeks ago, I bought an Ibanez GSR205 (this model specifically.) I'm replacing the stock electronics with a Tone Monster SBK-2D. I've run into a problem: I can't determine which prongs on the input jack are tip, ring and sleeve, respectively. I just got off the phone with Hoshino...
Hello all.
Apologies if this has been covered before. I did a search it couldn't find anything quickly. I have an Ibanez SR506 from the mid-90s. I can't tell exactly what year but I've seen other models from 1995 through 97 that look identical. It has all stock electronics. Wanting to replace...
Here we have a 2017 American Elite P-Bass in natural ash with a maple fretboard. It has been modded with a Lindy Fralin hum-canceling PJ set and a Tone Monster preamp. The preamp still allows the bass to go passive, but now has a selectable mid switch. With this setup, the bass is very Hi-Fi...

Steinberger Spirit XZ-25 “Cherry Burst”
I purchased this bass last year to use as a back-up to my primary bass and to travel with, should the need arise. The passive circuitry didn’t provide enough output compared to my other basses so I upgraded the preamp and now it closely matches my other...
So this is sort of about two different basses that I have.
The first one has a pretty interesting layout: one single P-bass pickup, but ample room for an active preamp, with space for four knobs and a switch.
I put in a Lindy Fralin pickup, and had someone connect it to a Bartolini TCT. They...
I absolutely love this cabinet!!! My back isn't what it used to be. I can still move it no problem because it's so light, but I'm near the end of my 6th decade!
1000 Watts
8 Ohms
Speakon and 1/4"
Tweeter Potentiometer
54 pounds (approximately, but feels lighter)

I'd like to hear your thoughts. I'm looking at the Ibanez sr305e and Jackson JS3V, they both have great reviews (playability, weight, feel etc), and I love their looks. Especially the quilted maple models.
All perfect, but... I can't get past the sound. It's so thin, rattly and "nasal" to me...
I'm very intrested in the Tone Master preamps; there seems to be quite a few different models to choose from and I'm not sure which ones the most popular or best choice for (Fender) Jazz Basses. Do any of them come with an Active/Passive mini toggle switch and a passive tone control? Also, Is...
So look, I know this isn't as hotly contested as "tonewood" or even poly vs nitro. BUT! Is a high mass bridge worth the cost?
I design water and sewer systems now, but I ran a machine shop for 15 years before and I appreciate nice machine work. I think it's cool, so a nifty hunk of metal...
NEW LOWER PRICE!! This is the bass that changed it all for me. It brought me back to the Fender style J bass. The tone and feel are like home. It has been upgraded with Aguilar obp1 preamp, Nordstrand hum canceling pickups, Hipshot brass bridge and was plekked by Mike at Guitarworks. This was my...

Im working on a ebay kit guitar and have pickups but no wiring and need to know if i can just use a tone monster preamp specifically an sbk2b. This is my first project to deal with active pickups so i dont know much and need help.
I installed a Tone Monster Pre amp on Dean Passive J Bass; It made a great improvemennt on it; i love it; 3 weeks later is making like distortion sounds from it and a very low level of volume. Does any of you guys have any idea whats going on??( I changed the battery for a new one and used 2...
