Not with the KK specifically but done it loads of times with various Fishman, Headway, Radial etc boxes and never had an issue so i'm sure the KK will work. The sound guy may make you plug into a DI box from the KK

i've used a Boss bass guitar graphic EQ pedal in the past which I switched on when playing arco. I found that scooping the mid a little made it sound more 'natural'

If they're Evah Mittel you could switch to the lower tension Weich. I made the same switch and didn't notice too much of a volume drop off when playing orchestral music. If you want even lower tension you could try Solos tuned down but I noticed a significant reduction in volume when i tried it with some Kaplan solos, they did have a nice arco tone though

Gary bought a P bass mirror scratchplate, great comms and speedy payment, Enjoy embracing your inner Phil Lynott! Alex

Martyn Bailey did mine, i shopped around a fair bit and he was very reasonably priced and did a great job. I've had the extension on my bass for nearly 10 years now. No complaints I paid in the region of £500 for an extension with all 4 capos

i bought a Spirocore E string of Karl. Great comms and speedy postage. Perfect!

I tend to use a bit of wood or a brick to prop up my right leg when playing sat down in a theatre pit. Might treat myself to a foot stool though actually...

I bought Duncan’s USA 5 string jazz. Great guy to deal with!

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison (the whole album) - I find the freedom that Richard Davis plays with on the album very inspiring especially as when backing singer songwriter type stuff I find it can sometimes be hard to come up with lines that aren't just root notes.

Daniel bough a Sansamp Bass Driver from me. Great communication and very easy to deal with. Enjoy the pedal! 😎

I bought an EHX Bass Balls pedal from Ben. Great communication and super quick postage. Thanks! Alex

I bought an MXR bass compressor pedal from Paul. Great communication and speedy delivery. Thanks! Alex

I've owned and gigged both the copper Realist and wooden version on the same bass. One thing to note is that the wooden version is a couple of mm thick and doesn't compress like the copper version, meaning that it slightly increases the bridge height on the E side. Doesn't sound like a lot but it was noticeable (as I didn't have an adjustable bridge at the time) when playing and I didn't like it, may have got used to it if i'd stuck it out though... Sound wise they were both quite similar but to me the wood version sounded more hollow somehow. I ended up switching to the copper version which sounded more like 'my bass but louder' at low volumes at least. I don't use a Realist anymore as I found it quite prone to feedback at higher volumes and I couldnt get a decent usable tone when needing to play loud. Ended up switching to a Fishman Full Circle that is a lot more feedback resistant, got it fitted by a luthier who also converted my bridge to an adjustable one at the same time. A KK BassMax is a cheaper option that is also quite feedback resistant. Hope that helps, Alex

Cool vid. I reckon no. 3 and possibly no. 1 are P basses.
