I bypass the preamp in my amp and connect the Magellan Pre to the amp fx return socket. This allows me to use the amp as a poweramp and control volume from the pedal.

Thanks. I'm obsessed with Sean Hurley.

I have one. I also have a Keeley compressor pro in front of it. I can't compare it to the Genz-Benz but can say that it is identical to the preamp on the Magellan amplifiers. The DI out is excellent.

I bought my LH Fender Jazz online from them and got terrific support. I had opted for their Plek service and they were were very patient with my many requests including stringing the bass with my preferred strings to ensure the Plex process was as accurate as possible.

Fender American II Pro Bass with bottomed out saddles - easy fix?
JohnR replied to daws0n's topic in Bass Guitars
I can't help with the shim material but for the pickups I took mine out and put extra foam underneath to help maintain the pressure when resting my thumb on them. -
Fender American II Pro Bass with bottomed out saddles - easy fix?
JohnR replied to daws0n's topic in Bass Guitars
I've always followed the Fender setup guide for my jazz bass. It is very helpful and does a good job of optimising the playability of the bass. https://support.fender.com/en-us/knowledgebase/article/KA-01903 -
Fender American II Pro Bass with bottomed out saddles - easy fix?

I had a similar experience with my AM 2 Pro and changed the bridge to a Babicz. I detest the Fender bridges. -

Tom bought my Eich cab cover and freed me of the long-standing embarrassment of having bought a cover for a cab I didn't buy. I'm delighted it has finally found a home. Friendly comms and fast payment. I couldn't have asked for more.

How is it? I've been lusting after one of these for months.

ACG Recurve 5 String - Price drop to £950 £1,100 including UK Delivery before I send to a well-knows bass dealer to sell. The bass that's so good I bought it twice. I was the first owner so it was built to my spec. I sold it as I couldn't get on with the filter preamp but always regretted selling it. I bought it back and, you guessed, I still couldn't get on with the preamp. So here it is up for sale. Comes with Hiscox hard case. In very good condition with only one mark I can find. There is a light graze at the lower strap button which I've show in the photos below. Details and more pics on the ACG website here: https://acguitars.co.uk/project/0424recurve-5-34lh/ Tryouts welcome in Glasgow.

For One Moment - Lee Hazlewood. All of Lee's songs appear to be very simple on the surface but are all masterpieces of songwriting and arrangement. The bass part is very straightforward but requires attention to note length and timing. For One Moment - Lee Hazlewood - Bass.pdf

Jezzaboy popped in to collect a pedal he'd bought from me and was a welcome distraction from my Saturday afternoon chores. It was a pleasure to discuss all things bass fact to face which is something I rarely get the chance to do. Bonus points scored as he is playing in one of my favourite bars in January so I will get a change to go see him and his band play live. Cheers!

Girls Talk - Dave Edmunds. This is a cracking song with a few tricky variations. This is in no way intended to be an accurate transcription, it's simply my interpretation. Girls Talk - Dave Edmunds - Bass.pdf
