FT: ACG J Type 5 String (trade only - NEW INFO)
skelf replied to thepurpleblob's topic in Basses For Sale
It is just a Toné control for each pickup. Set up the tone you like on each pickup and use the blend to move between them. You can ignore if you wish the upper knobs on the second and third stack the first stack being the volume and blend. . Set the upper ring to zero on the final stack and ignore that stack completely. Then all it is a volume/blend Toné and Toné. Once you have that sorted out all the upper rings on the second and third stack make the tone control more pronounced. The final stack is basically a treble boost. Set the frequency with the lower ring boost with the upper. But it works perfectly well just using the second and third stack lower ring. It behaves just like a passive bass with a Toné control for each pickup. -

You could change the preamp. -
Second hand Kompakt 6 available. Details at: [url="http://reiverguitars.co.uk/project/006kp/"]http://reiverguitars.../project/006kp/[/url] Change to the pickup spec in that the neck now has a single coil in it and the switch is a 3 way instead of the usual 5 way. I am not selling the guitar but will be happy to put you in touch with the owner. Hopefully this will be OK with the mods if not let me know.

That will be down to the increased paperwork and administration related to the importing and exporting of Rosewood. I know even without any CITES woods in an instrument my paper work to send anywhere outside the EU has gone up considerable.
-
For what it is worth I really liked that one. -
As of tomorrow this will be down to the last day of the auction.
-
Nice work. Alan

Umpire warning for ungentlemanly conduct.

You could buy this one and auction it for your club.

[quote name='metissekit' timestamp='1483958660' post='3211345'] Hi Bass Apprentice. You're right. It's for someone who isn't afraid to think out of the box just a tad. I've had the usual fare Yamaha, Fender, Gibson so not going to criticise anyone staying safe.....but some people pay extraordinary money for ACG, Fodera, Alembic etc etc and John Deacon mostly used a standard Precision.£200 buy you what in basses these days? Many thanks for your help. J [/quote] Wish I was even in the same ballpark as Foders and Alembic -
Had you ordered a bass from scratch then there are neck options but a stock bass is all ready done so that limits the options. On the particular bass you bought the neck was unusual in that is was fairly chunky as I pointed out at the time so not representative of the usual neck dimensions.

If anyone is interested this Fusion bag works very well for the Helix floor unit. Loads of additional pockets and has rucksack straps as well. [url="https://www.fusion-bags.com/products/sa-workstation-controller"]https://www.fusion-bags.com/products/sa-workstation-controller[/url] I have the floor unit which I intend to take to shows to demo basses and guitars. I have used many multi-effects units over many years and this is by far the easiest to use. Fairly new to the modelling aspect of it but so easy to edit every thing it is proving pretty easy full stop. On the whole I still prefer the bass without the modelling but that could just be down to many years of recording via DI. Still found some excellent sounds using the modelling and have made up several banks with just cab/amp to demo the basses. Brilliant unit very pleased I got it first outing will be to the Holy Grail in Berlin.

Also has a bass boost on the push/pull on the active stack. Pull bright on the volume/tone when in active mode. Four options regarding bass boost frequency plus level selected internally. Yes it is a split coil and in this case with Alnico magnets rather than the ceramic I normally use.

Dave Wilson I think he is working out of Hexham at the moment. Quality work.
-
Thanks very much. Hopefully my customer will be reunited with his bass.
-
Fixed. Now with details on the bass. Much appreciated. Alan

Details on the bass below pinched last week in the West Yorkshire area. Any information leading to the recovery of the bass would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Alan [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0167-finn-4/"]http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0167-finn-4/[/url] Not sure if this is the correct forum to put this in, if not please move to the correct one.
