It's called the control cavity btw. Here's one I fitted in a homemade bass some years back with a similar sized control cavity (note the additional battery is optional) The OBP-3 utilises your existing vol and balance controls.

I take it this will work with any passive pickups? All I need now is a volume and balance pot. Any ideas?? (I know you mentioned that it can use the existing ones but I would like to put some new ones in) Many thanks

Its a Yamaha RBX375 and the space for the on board preamp is pretty small. I will take another look at the Aguilar OBP3 it may just fit, the only reason I said it may not fit is because when i removed the stock preamp it was pretty cramped plus the battery compartment is completly seperate from said preamp area (does this have an actual name?). Does the Aguilar have a volume and balance pot or is it just an eq preamp? Thanks

Bought my BTB brand new and didn't come with anything other than the bass. Im still not getting along with mine very well it's a bit too twangy for my liking, so I bought a Schecter Stilletto custom 4 to sit next to it .

Also does it require 9v battery?

If your feeling wealthy then have a look at glockengang (Did I spell it right? )[/quote] Well price is no problem I can save and my saying is "if your gunna do something why not wait and do it properly. I had a look into the Glockenlang, and it's pretty much what I need. The specter one wont fit in my Yamaha RBX, and neither will the Aguilar. Can the Glockenlang be used with passive pickups?? (Please tell me if im asking a stupid question as I have seen you have the push/pull for active/passive but i didn't know if this was just for the preamp).

I've had a look on the forum for a topic on this and havnt yet found one. Basically im in the process of completely re-fitting an old bass with some new electronics. I already have a set of EMG - HZ 40 pickups to go in, but I cant seem to match up a decent pre-amp. Looking for 1 Master Volume, 1 Master Blend and a bass and treble EQ oh yea and I want the EQ active. Does anyone know if the Bartolini sets are any good?? Thanks

Waiting for delivery of a BBE sonic Maximizer 882i and Line 6 G90 Wireless. Also Have a Furmans Power Conditioner but havnt got round to putting it in yet [attachment=69586:35632_10...776322_n.jpg]

+1 for the c300, I use the C400XL and there pretty much the same, excellent piece of kit. Best part of it is the "mix" knob which allows to mix the wet and dry signals together.
