Thanks for the suggestions guys. So I literally just need vol/vol or vol/blend (not fussed) b/t, and a passive switch ideally. I'm more than happy for stacked controls. Just no idea where to turn. In regards to liking the sound, I love it, but I want flexibility on board. If I'm playing live, I dont want to have to fiddle with pedals mid gig to get a slightly different tone. Plenty do that I knkw, just not for me. Thanks for the suggestions.

Hi guys This year I have acquired a Lakland DJ 5 which I absolutely love! Out of a great deal of gear I have owned and used this is absolutely one of the best all around basses I've had so top marks to Lakland. I do however want to add a preamp of some sort. I've tried over a period of months to contact East for their specific one and had no response via email or on here. I hope everything is ok on their end but this is very frustrating. The preamp must ideally have bass, treble and a passive bypass. Don't mind stacked or anything along those lines. Ideally I'd have a passive tone control as well as I use that a hell of a lot. I just do not know where on earth to turn. It also needs to be easily available in the UK too as I cant be dealing with shipping from the US. Literally any advice on where to turn would be a huge help! Thanks as always Aj

I've reached out via email to all 3 email addresses on the website 3 times now and have sent 2 DM's. What is going on? I'd seriously appreciate it if someone could shed a bit of light with the radio silence if possible please.

Hiya I have sent you another email and DM but still no response. Could you get back to me when you are able to please. Thank you! 😊

Hiya, I have dropped you a pm 😊 Look forward to hearing from you!

Hiya John I'm glad to hear all is ok health wise and such and the business blip has been remedied! If you could get back to me about a DJ retro it would be highly appreciated 😊 Thanks! 😊

Well crap, not looking good then! I hope all is ok on their end. Hopefully someone somewhere hears something soon!

I've even found his profile on here and dropped a message but nothing for weeks now. Anyone in the know or have any alternatives at all? Thanks for the replies so far though all

Hi all Has anyone had any recent contact with the guys at East? I've tried to make contact several times recently to get a DJ retro and have had zero luck. Are they still going or stopped now? Any help would be seriously helpful. Many thanks Aj

Thanks for all of the suggestions folks! Definitely considering trying some of the suggested if I can find any. I have to say I played a spector euro 5lx years ago and absolutely loved it! May have to wait and see if anyone is parting ways with one!!

Hey all, My sincere apologies for the stupid title, it's difficult to describe hahaha!! I'm curious to know what is the brightest bass you've owned/played with the most sizzle on the top end? While still retaining good low end. Ideally a 5 string but not essential. I'm basically in the market for a new 5er with about £1k-1.5 budget. Thanks as always!! Aj

How would you describe the tone and build quality? I'm thinking about getting one of these very soon and have heard so many mixed things!

Replied 😊

I just had a look for this and I couldn't see it unfortunately, thanks though.
