My other bass collection 5 string which is a jazz style is silent despite having real single coils. This is a very faint hiss which can be removed by backing the treble off the guitar pre amp just a little. It is not noticeable at any situation other that when Im practising on my own with my Markbass. It does not come through the DI on the markbass and its not present with all my amps in fact this guitar is silent through my EA IAmps 500. Its probably me fussing too much. I like this guitar so much I was thinking of have an audere preamp and Nordstrands put in it like I have on my 4 string. Since having this guitar I have done every gig and every rehersal with it. Anyway thanks for contacting if its ok Ill put your name in my feedback. Im going to upload some phots of the preamp for the techies to look at. The photo with the finger on shows a tiny little slide switch which does slide but seems to do absolutely nothing to the sound. I have had this guitar for less than a year so I do not know if the preamp is the original one. I have 4 active Bass Collection basses the machine heads and bridges are all identical BUT the preamps are all different they do not even look similar and of cours as I bought them all off ebay I have no idea if any of the preamps are the original fittings as non of them has anything printed on it thanks for looking at this skez

Yes it is I part exed it for a prose karuna 4 string a while ago. Its my number 1 bass I love the sound and feel of it. Did I buy it off you I cannot remember who I had it off skez

Thanks Bassbod I have gone over it witha magnyfying glass and a torch looking for any trimpots which some of my other bass collections do have, I found a little 2 position slide switch which does not seem to alter the sound at all in either position. Ill do some phots 2mo and see if anyone has any suggestions. I would think the preamp is turned up as its a loud guitar for a nine volt skez

Its a 5 string bass collection P and J pickups but they are both HBs not sure about the screening as the cavity has bee sprayed with some gloop. Im not sure its an Earth hum skez

Hi I have a number of active basses. In my signature you can see a warmoth jazz with nordstrand pickups and an audere preamp. It is silent as a mouse with my amp maxed and the treble and bass boosted. I have a number of bass collection bases that are also silent. But I have one that is noisy continual background hiss which only goes when you back off the treble on the guitar or amp. Is a repair possible if not I would like to have a new preamp fitted. I may change the pickups as well what do you recommend and who would you recommend doing the work I am in Stone Staffordshire skez
