    [quote name='kurcatovium' timestamp='1357378286' post='1921725'] Unfortunately I don't know and there seems to be no sign or label on them anywhere (just "B" mark on bridge pickup, but I think it stands for "Bridge"). I think they're not CBC though. At least not the modern ones. I had CBCs in my other bass and bottom side looked different. These have copper plate on back while CBCs I had were cast in black epoxy. Also, these have only 2 wires. [/quote] ah ok cheers, sadly i don't think they'll fit my Lakland. Good luck with the sale

    Yup, Shake Rattle & Roll was in our set along with a Latin/calypso flavoured 'Auld Lang Syne'...went well despite how drunk the band was

    Have a 5501 bump, such great basses. Have just fitted Nordstands to mine and wowsers! Superb necks and B' strings.

    My past active basses never seemed to work that well through my Orange Terror Bass amp...although it accepts passive basses better...to my ears anyhow..and I am deaf

    Some times playing closer to the neck can give a warmer sound, nice technique, i tend to do that if i'm playing a more 'dubbier' section in a tune. One of the hardest things i find playing reggae music is a good drummer who is solid, a lot of drummers will slow down to sometimes match the bass which can often be behind the beat like old school studio 1 bass lines/riddims etc. Reggae drumming is quite hard to do well in my opinion...i've had some drummers slow so much it becomes painful, Enjoy the vibes

    Passive basses

    Raslee replied to Dr M's topic in Bass Guitars

    I must admit i do like active stingrays, i could never imagine that as a passive although i know some of the old US Subs were passive. It is totally tongue in cheek of course but i don't miss that extra expense of a decent battery

    Passive basses

    Raslee replied to Dr M's topic in Bass Guitars

    [quote name='cocco' timestamp='1356167282' post='1907509'] There's something missing in the tone of active basses in my opinion. I can't put my finger on what though. I've had a few actives in my time, from stingrays to shukers and every one has had something missing. [/quote] +1, I know what you mean. With the thanks of Kiogon and his brilliant replacement wiring all my active basses are now passive and i much prefer the tone off all. Don't get me wrong i think there is perhaps more immediate bass/treble tone with active...but just not what i like....it often sounds compressed to my ears.

All 3 of my basses are now all passive thanks to John's great work & service. Very highly recommended 110%. Thanks [/font][/color]

    Recently bought the Schaller tuners on here but the back plates sadly overlap on my custom built jazz and therefore don't fit shame as they're really good tuners. They would be ideal for Fender/Squire type P or J basses. Would swap for some smaller type i.e. Hipshot Ultralite type and can cash adjust. Or sell for £35 posted (paypal gift or bank transfer) Also have an Audere preamp taken out of my Lakland 5501 as i have gone all passive. I broke the battery indicator LED on removal but i am sure it would be an easy solder repair, however it is not essential. I don't know much about it other than its a Audere Z[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]mode 4 band EQ preamp - I read briefly they're pretty good but i prefer simple passive configuration so have opted for just that. Pretty sure this is the one, [url="http://www.audereaudio.com/3ZB.htm"]http://www.audereaudio.com/3ZB.htm[/url] not sure if mine has a passive configuration though - it may have I'm a bit clueless really . The controls are currently set as Vol, Treb, Bass, hi/lo mids (double), Blend and a 3 way switch for the 'Z' modes.

    I think Gong perfected their best sound with Mike Howlett, not the original but certainly my favourite. Same can be said for Ozrics Roly Wynn (RIP).... Fantastic playing
