...and my ACG Finn 4 is MM-based (with a piezo) and the mids are fab now! Gigged with awe... Ta John.

Bought a Jazz scratchplate off Dave - painless - cheers ShaunB

Lloyd just bought my Lomenzo HyperDrive - painless and highly recommended. cheers, ShaunB

I'd buy it some flowers and wear your best suit... (I'll get me coat)

...try watching your $2,300, 7kg, 100% carbon, custom windsurfing board being "ridden" surfing style up a plane loading ramp by a United Airlines "numb nuts"! *ugh*

I contacted Alan at ACG and he wondered if John East could sort my dilemma.[/font][/size][/color][/font] [color=#1E497D][font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]I called John and he told me to fire the bass over as he had the perfect solution, "What I would suggest is a variation on a U-Retro 4 Knob Deluxe in order to take care of the piezo. A piezo circuit would be required, which includes a piezo/mag mixer circuit."[/font][/size][/color][/font][/color] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]Interparcel failed me for the first time ever - twice! [/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]I opted for a TNT collection on Wednesday and let John know the bass was coming last Thursday. TNT didn't collect. John told me he was awake in the night worrying if he had missed delivery - wharrah guy![/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]TNT forgot to collect the bass Thursday as well and as I didn't want it sitting in a depot/back of a van all weekend, John said ship it Monday - he'll try and get the work done Tuesday for shipping Wednesday to arrive today (Thursday) as Easter is a 4-day courier no go zone.[/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]John put the pre-amp in the day it arrived, and then got up at 7:30 the next morning to fit the piezo attenuator (whatever that is...) - sorted, packed up and delivered back here today![/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]Awesome service and one of the nicest people to deal with - a true gentleman - and I have to add... BLIMEY! My ACG is stupendous! Even in passive mode it sounds fab. The U-Retro makes adding a touch of anything a breeze (I am a simpleton) - I can't wait to get it out there and see how it cuts through.[/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]So impressed, I've put a J-Retro in my Jazz. Which is nice...[/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]Thanks to John East for a job very well done - I can't recommend him highly enough.[/font][/size][/color][/font] [font=Verdana] [color=#000000][size=3][font=verdana, geneva, sans-serif]cheers, Shaun[/font][/size][/color][/font]

Just received a mint Fender Jazz from Dave as a part exchange - flawless. Highly recommended. cheers Shaun

Just purchased a Barefaced Midget-T from Steve - great comms and simple transaction - wharrah guy!
