Hey just wondering if anyone could shed some advice on a problem of mine. I was just playing my P bass through a WTX260 when there started to develop a crackle, mostly when i played when resting my thumb on the screws of the pickups, this crackling continued then all sound cut out. Turn off the head and back on again, now sound is coming back through but at quite a reduced output, i'm completly stumped and can only think there may of been a grounding problem, or what i'm wearing is quite staticy? As you can tell im quite new at this so any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Yes it is the A35, erm pros wise it does sound pretty good currently running my P bass through it. The kickback function is pretty cool, how ever when stood up or kickedback it doesnt take much effort too knock it over onto its back, i now have something rattling about inside from this. The aluminium cone also gives quite a unique sound i think, so you might want to hear one in person first, i would recommend it though.

I'm currently using a Hartke, its quite nice. Has a good tight sound, one thing though there is a lot of hiss from the unit if you use it with headphones.

I've been searching the web and the forums for any hands on info about this little head unit, wondering if anybody has any personal experince with one or heard anything about it? Was planning to combine it with a Aguilar GS112, would this work out well? Any advice would be appreciated. Sorry i'm all very new to this. Cheers

Fair enough, how do you i go about wiring in parallel then, im guessing its not as easy as soldering white to white and black to black of the two outputs?

I think i read somewhere that series gives a higher output? Or does it just change the sound? Cheers

I'm planning on wiring a olp musicman pickup into a standard tone volume setup, but the pickup has two sets of black and white wires, would i be right in assuming that to wire it in series i just wire one of the grounds to the other sets live and then proceed as normal? Cheers

You could use some neck ferrules?

Cheers Nick[/quote] I agree the 614s are very playable and the precision pickup sounds amazing. So buy a BB614!
