  1. Hi! Upgrading my bass with aguilar pickups and preamp. Settled on this: https://www.muziker.co.uk/aguilar-obp-3sk-pp Reasoning for this one in particular is I only have 3 knobs on my bass However I've just found out it doesn't come with pots, and I have no clue where to start in terms of what pots I'd need. Sounds like I'll need 3, and one needs to be push/pull. What resistances should I get? Any recommended sites? Appreciate any advice, other things to take into account etc
  2. Update... I've held a magnet over each coil (didn't touch at all). One coil repels and one coil attracts, so I'm officially stumped
  3. Hi! I've got a Ray25 that doesn't seem to be bucking my hum. I've got a consistent buzz, that is not related to touching strings, is boosted when I boost treble, and can be nullified if I stand at a very specific angle in my living room. It happens constantly in our rehearsal studio too I have: Checked all grounding (a-ok) Shielded control and pickup cavities Checked battery etc etc My thoughts are now that it is to do with the pickup. I tested both coils with the screwdriver on pole piece method - all good, so the coils themselves are fine. Could a magnet be potentially flipped? I was looking into how to do this but only videos for guitar are on youtube. I also saw this video ( ) and it looks like magnets for stingrays are glued, whereas on guitar videos they just slide in and out - so not sure what to do. It's not an issue for live but I can't record like this...was considering taking it to a tech but the cost would probably be more than the pickup itself is worth. Happy to provide any more info or pics etc. Thanks for any help
