Adding a clicky to a Baby bass / EUB

[basshead56]

Hey guys,
I'm trying to boost the 'click' in my slap sound and have been considering adding a clicky pickup to my Baby clone. It already has a transducer style pup under the bridge which sounds great, but unfortunately it just doesn't give me the click I hear playing acoustically.

What's the best way to sort this?

I have thought of getting the clicky, and having it wired to the tone knob (with the tone disconected at full) and having this pot control the clicky volume. Would this work? would I need a preamp?

Any recommendations on clickys?

Cheers
Colin

Almost certainly & a 2 chanel blender of some sort.
My clicky has no where near the output that my bassmax chucks out.

Can't add any useful suggestions, I'm afraid
but I'd like to know how you get on, and what exactly you do to add the clicky
I'm thinking about adding one to my Stagg EUB

Let us know anyhow

Good luck with it

A clicky is a smaller transducer pickup one may attach beneath the fingerboard to amplify the 'click' sound of slap/percussive playing.
