@ped is the expert on the internal fitting. With the external version, the GK3 output and the guitar pickup/preamps are separate. If you want to send the guitar output down the 13-pin cable, you need to plug a short lead from the jack socket to the GK3 controller. I'm pretty sure that the internal version will be similar, but with some internal wiring and a switch rather than an external lead.

This popped up in my feed this morning. What an outstanding video, one of the best analysis and technique videos for bass that I've ever seen on YouTube. The "From the bottom" couldn't be further from the truth 🙂

A link would help ...

I had one of the originals. Horrible piece of stinky poo. Glad to get rid of it for £15 quid in about 1974.

Might be something here that you can work with? https://alternativeto.net/software/loopback/

I'll keep mine crossed too just in case. It would be a terrible shame if something happened to this lovely bass.

You couriered this? Have you taken leave of your senses?

Fair enough. I'm not a fan of the standard SR5 either. The Classic looks much more like a proper Stingray, with the control plate.

Dug back into my archives and the 2500 Tribute I owned was definitely 16.5mm spacing at the bridge. Maybe the US made ones are different? That's the reason I got rid of mine: I found a Bass Collection with 19mm spacing and I find that much more comfortable. The BBNE2 is 18mm and I wouldn't want to go any less. Horses for courses.

String spacing on the G&L can be a bit tight. I had a 2500 Tribute which was only about 16mm. Great sounding bass though.

I have Status half-wound on my Duesenberg, which seems like a good compromise between thump and definition.

Well, either you're right, and I'd better throw my BBNE2 into a skip. Or ...

Dude seems to be looking for the dots for 'Song for my Father' originally by the Horace Silver Quintet, 1965 . There's an arrangement here which includes a bass part. https://musescore.com/user/31455399/scores/5487708 This appears to be in F minor though, so I'm not sure what the 'Eb' comment is about.

This. Same one , even 😉 If tube pres are not OK, Euphonic Audio iAmp 350. I've never owned the 800 but I expect that will be pretty good too.

Use Google instead, set up a search with site:basschat.co.uk and then add the string you're looking for.

I have the guitar version (the Zenith) and the piezo in that works pretty well, so I haven't thought about changing it.

Think @kristo had some success with Kent Armstrong pickups .

IBTL. Anyone got any popcorn?

Welcome to the Basschat swear filter.

The Pentateuch of the Cosmogony out-fails that by a considerable distance IMHO.

One of your other guitarists was a better player than that when I was in band with him when we were both at school together. I cant believe he's regressed that much since!

Stand it on the one you're not using? Ironing board?

I am not a huge fan of the MS-60B's Octave effect, I had much better results with the Pitch Shift effect. I don't think either of them is as good as my OC-3, but thats just a personal opinion.

This.
