  1. I have active EMGs in both of my Warwicks too, and they are very quiet.
    Keep an eye on the adverts, I got the PJX set for £45.

    I fitted D'Addario strings, the tension is lower then on my own basses at standard tuning,but I tune the E to D or C# so I don't find it a problem.

  2. I bought a Mikro bass for my daughter and also found it noisy.I tried copper foil tape to shield the cavities,which wasn't totally successful.
    I picked up an EMG PJX set from Basschat as a replacement, these are standard PJ size so I guess most pickups would fit.
    The pickups were a little tight in the cavities but went in without any mods.
    The original pots were quite small and one of them was fitted close to the side of the cavity, so small bodied pots will probably be needed.
    There are some modified Mikro basses on Talkbass, probably worth a look

    No problems, thanks for the reply. I tried a 2nd hand $$4 recently and found the neck incredibly chunky, but surprisingly easy and manageable to play. I take it this is the same? Is it true that the neck dimensions changed on the $$ basses at one point?

    The Warwick neck dimensions changed in 2009

  4. Not sure if they have the schematic you need, but lots of laney stuff here.

    Have you tried contacting Laney?
    They couldn't supply me with a drawing for my old bass combo, due to health and safety, but pointed me to a site with one.

  5. I have 5 Trace heads, an AH200-7S which I bought new in 94, an AH100, a 200watt head unit from a combo which is still waiting for me to fix it, an AH200 GP12 which I bought for £35 last year, all these are Series 6, and my most recent addition, an AH250 GP12 SMX, which is in need of a little tlc.
