Iv had this for years, when a friend left it at mine. I have used it thru small practise amps with guitars and keyboards with headphones but never with my bass. I thought it broken many years back, but tried a new battery(must have used lots of dead batterys at the time.doh.) and..my god, the tone is awesome. Its the best bass synth tone I have heard ever!!!! :-)

any one else used this? any mods you can suggest?

NO!!!!!!!! PLEASE DON'T MOD IT ;) :P :) :huh:

(Sorry about that - had to get your att'n)

Highly prized and desired by certain guitards. One for sale in Australia - $399.

They have one sound and one sound only - as per Radiohead, etc. There's no mod you can do to it that won't reduce it's value or improve the sound.

Just wrap it in tissue paper, stick it on the bay and buy a boutique, high-end modern jobbie with cash left over.

Please don't touch it - leave it original!!!
I picked up a Kimbara FY-2 made by Shin-ei locally for princely sum of a fiver.
Would have cloned it, had I liked the sound.

However, sold it to a bloke in Australia for about £120. ;)
Quite sought after.
