John is the man, such a clever bloke, have you seen his circuit that fits in a p bass with no need for a battery and charges through the jack socket, simple yet genius! Did you go one or two band Roger, I have the 2 eq in my classic as it was missing something with the ebmm one or maybe even a faulty preamp as I got it in a trade.

Bump, nobody got an opinion on these?

I fancy a white one for my classic to create a John deacon look a like five string

That's a shame as it was a proper eightees case, nicks guitars bought it over from the states with another stingray inside but the buyer didn't want it.

That's how the drums are anyway, just be like standing backwards for the whole gig really!

Is it still in the vintage rectangular case?

A drummer that could count then? even if it was for ill gotten gains

It will be the EUB tomorrow, until my Schaller mag pickup arrives I just cant take the risk of messing for hours with feedback we are abouth 4th on tomorrow so it will be running late by then no doubt so no sound check probably.

The 79 was handy for knocking in fence posts but it did sound great, I could and did play that 82 for hours on end at some function gigs, so comfy.

Last night, not sure what I am doing with my legs, sort of robot dance I guess?

Such a nice Stingray that 82, and light too, almost certainly a body made by charvel as it was shaped really nicely IMO and the book matched grain on the back etc, stonking bass

Dave must've moved it on rather quickly [/quote] You cant see it all in this pic but enough for Foxx and me to know its the same number [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/20130623_091818_zpsc3a83997.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130623_091818_zpsc3a83997.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Here it is with the white... [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/20130623_092111_zpsf7b28a51.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/20130623_092111_zpsf7b28a51.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

The new ones on my Classic are moving around so I might have to try that, the ones on your 82 I presume are still the ones I made?

[quote name='Foxx' timestamp='1408802937' post='2533636'] Hehe. I'll never part with either of mine now, I've finally found what for me is as near to bass perfection as it gets. [/quote] Thats what I said, now you have it!

Whores the lot of ya!

It is, he pm'd me the serial

I am currently using the Stagg which kind of sounds like a fretless bass anyway, so at least I will get to use the proper DB live even if it sounds similar to the Stagg, the Stagg has the piezo transducer but no body to resonate hence the fretless bass sound I guess, at least this way I can mix a little K&K in to taste or if I can get it right 90% piezo for example, the more I use it the better I will get at setting it up, in the house the sound bounces around and feeds back quite easily, if I have my bridge altered I will get them to fit the K&K where and how they think best, it is in the treble side at the moment as it was so boomy even with the preamp cutting the lows when installed on the bass side.

I cant beleive it is my old one, it looks lotally different with the black pg! There is a pre EB porn thread too Foxx

I fear the terrible sounds already come from it even when un amplified

I need to start keeping tabs on all these basses, my other one has come back on here now and I have already forgot who has it! I know I will want them all back one day

Actually this band is the most quiet ever! Electric drums, 3 piece band, guitarist doesnt even use an amp, although it is blues and rock etc. I just want a plug and play solution almost like a regular bass, I have already asked Jake to spend half an hour of one of my lessons setting up my fishman in the near future to see where I am going wrong amybe over time and once I have gigged it more I will blend the mag out and rely on the piezo but I feel like I will be spending far too long messing about right now to be able to gig it, certainly at quick turnaround slots like tomorrows beer festival thing. What sort of sound can I expect from the Schaller, terrible?

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1408715320' post='2532888'] We don't get asked to lend our bass; it's a fretless sixer. Odd, no..? [/quote] Even my fretted fives keep most oiks at bay I was asked at a jam a few weeks ago if someone could lend my bass at a little acoustic style jam, "yeah sure its that big violin looking thing at the back" funnily enough they declined that too, fussy buggers.

Have you got my old baby Foxx? 82 white pickguard sounds like it, old horse murphy in the mix somewhere? That is the best pre EB I have ever played if it is!

[url="http://www.touchstonetonewoods.co.uk/products/pick-ups-8/double-bass-pick-up-738.aspx"]http://www.touchston...ick-up-738.aspx[/url] Came in at just under £70 inc the P&P, used ones are selling for about the same on eBay? I know there are better mag pickups out there but I just want to be heard without too much feedback so I can get gigging the DB,I have looked all over for a used Krivo or new UK stock of anything else, Thomann do the Schaller for £91 plus postage so I decided to grab this for £20 less. I had a great stage to have used a DB last night but I went with the EUB because of the feedback issues, I am hoping this coupled with my K&K and Fishman into my fx return to add a bit of 'something' should get me close enough?
