Club Trickfish!

I wish they'd do more 4 ohm cabs

They do! You have to ask.

Former Bullhead 1.0 user here...and seriously contemplating that 1.5 as a future move. All of that headroom, plus HP and LP filters? Be still, my beating heart...

 

[J.Wolf]

The soapbar looks to be an MM style (3 screws). Will there be an EMG35 format as well? Are they noise-canceling?

Great stuff!

We have a soapbar-sized casing for 4 and 5 in the P2 and P4 size, nothing EMG size at this time. the Music Man is a standard MM size.

How is the reception to the 1.5k?

Its been really great. I think a lot of folks were very intrigued by the 3K but didnt want the extra channel, and the size.

 

[J.Wolf]

@J.Wolf what is the difference between this new Fodera/Trickfish pre and the Minnow?

Will this one be DI and have all the features?

Thanks!

Its based on the Fodera preamp, so its a little different from the Minnow, also it has all the mid switching options, which the Minnow doesnt have. And it will run on a 9V battery.

Day 2 “find” at the NAMM TF booth…VW!

Sadly, he didn’t play though…

EDIT/add: also, rear pic of the TF 1.5 (the Fodera boy’s photobombed my pic)…

I have a feeling the 1.5K will shoot quickly to the top of the low-end food chain.

Any videos of the 1.5 being played through?

A little taste.... TF pickups too.

Theres a new vertical 2x10 on TF's instagram that looks great

hey guys, just coming up for air after slapfest 2026, I mean, NAMM 2026. (I always joke that the reason everyone plays slap bass at NAMM is that it's the only thing you can hear over the dull roar of a gazillion guitar and bass amps playing at once, but I digress).

The show was great, we had a fantastic response to the pickups, the new cabs and the 1.5K. Here are a couple of clips of people playing a Fodera standard with the hum-cancelling J pickups. Very open, responsive and punchy but still very nice complexity and texture in the mids and a deep bottom.

this is through the 1.5K and 2x L212. That Devon Aeon bass was killing. it had the Dual Coils, and a J Core preamp

I saw that too!!

When all is settled post-NAMM @J.Wolf I'd/we'd love to hear if that will be an addition to the L cab lineup!

I think so. And I sure hope so, it sounded really great. We had it on top of a L112M, which it stacks perfectly on with a Mini500. That was one of peoples favorite setups at the booth. Tiny footprint, super portable, tall enough to get close to your ears on stage, and plenty of booty. Im a sucker for greaty sounding vertical 210.

That sounds fantastic! Looking forward to it being confirmed, and eyeing the L112M too after what I've been reading here!

My (first world) problem is wanting more Trickfish cabs and not willing to get rid of any of the ones I currently own!

We had a great time checking out the Trickfish booth at NAMM.

Here is a photo/video dump from the show!

I think this sounds pretty good.

The L212 sounded fantastic, and I was also super impressed by the L115 and the new Mini vertical 210.
