Months in the making… just took possession 10 minutes ago…

Baby had a Christmas recital earlier in the day so we moved my son’s drum lesson to much later than usual …. Been running since 9am…. If you have never seen toddlers dancing to Brenda Lee and Jose Feliciano, you really should…

No...? That sounds interesting.
I played a little drummerless gig last night and played the first set plugged straight into the amp (Hartke Kickback 12), and the second set through the SansAmp Bass Fly Rig.
The SansAmp, set properly, brought out a lot of what I was looking for. But that is an interesting idea.
I'm finding myself appreciating the "work with what you have" ethic. Sometimes these p'ups really do a nice almost-dark punch. If I could get to the other end of the dynamic spectrum, I'd stop worrying it.

Have a look at this post - it might help and is certainly cheaper than new pickups. Plus don’t forget strings.

Maybe drinking would help many of all drivers I see today. I think if you can breath you can pass the test. We have issues to internationals wanting to park on church property and go home leaving the rig.... (A side from assuming it's OK to use personally property, the ground is not firm and the blacktop not made for heavy trucks.) It's funny, most of these guys hop out of the tractor with flip flops and can't speak a bit of English. Not sure how that is a good idea or the test is taken.... (I've worked helping internationals for decades, so it's not anti or xenophobic anything.)

For a moment I thought that the trucks were “International” brand.
