Certainly. Upon closer inspection it's got 2n3106 Germanium transistors instead of the 'vanilla' 2n5088s and a Burr Brown OPA2136 opamp instead of the standard JRC4558 on the EQ section to give increased sound quality. Here's the back of the board: -
Your favourite rock and jazz albums of all time?

None, I think the original schematic called for a 47nf cap into the feedback loop (overdrive section), but I upped this to 470 to drop the frequency of the HPF into the filth section, so it delivers full range overdrive instead of chopping off the bottom end. The input cap has been increased too, for the same reason. The EQ section has also been 'fettled' to increase the low end (this comes after the overdrive section)

Thinning out the herd, so offering up my home made Xotic BB Bass preamp clone. It's had a few mods (enhanced low end and switchable clipping diodes - Silicon or Germanium) and is a great sounding pre. Capable of low gain 'grit' right up to silly amounts of filth with a 2 band Baxandall EQ. True bypass, 9v DC adaptor power only with velcro on the back. Price includes P&P to mainland UK.

Just a two word review...

I thought it was a Carl Thompson initially, but it’s actually an Abe Rivera, and was apparently the first bass they (he) made.

Roadworn 2nd hand more than a new one!

‘S got extra ‘road wearage’ innit?! -
Took a Behringer VP1 apart today to transplant it in another box with better quality sockets and switch. Minutes of fun!

Try a DLS RotoSIM - gets very close.

Leslie cab - you can hear it spinning before the guitar comes in. Sounds like JPJ is just overdriving the amp as well.

Basses that aren’t any good for metal. 😉

Rickenbacker. Tried one once and it was just dreadful to play. In its defence it sounded awesome!

My tentative entry; Ampeg Lite!

Oof!! 😍

Ooh, what kind of washer/dryer combo? 😉

Also ‘Vigil in a wilderness of mirrors’, the first album from Fish after he left Marillion. John Giblin’s playing on every track is a masterclass in the art of playing fretless.

All of Carol Kaye’s stuff is sans tab. Most of it’s out of print, but is still available on Amazon for kindle though.

Has James Corden got his own show then? Sheesh, what a squeaky gobshite. Sounds good though Bill.

Toss up between Björk’s ‘Utopia’ and Primus’ ‘Desaturating Seven’ for me. Some days there’s a clear winner and then another day I’m back to a quandary again. 🤯
