    Sorry chaps looks like that link it's been closed by Soundclick. Check this one from Zoom. The samples were made using the B2 [url="http://www.zoom.co.jp/english/download/demosound/demo_b2series.php"]http://www.zoom.co.jp/english/download/dem...mo_b2series.php[/url]

    This chap went the whole mile and recorded samples of every single effect and amp modeling in the B2. There you go, enjoy! [url="http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=584265"]http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=584265[/url]

    [quote name='NancyJohnson' post='31556' date='Jul 13 2007, 08:45 PM']I don't want to be a fly in the ointment here...I mean, they look nice enough, some of the pickup configurations look interesting, but a quick glance at the price list (plus the option of a preamp for 200 additional euros) made my heart sink somewhat. Q. Why aren't people just getting a little tired of paying vintage prices for what are essentially a bunch of Fender copies? Sure, if they want to offer me an endorsement, I'll take a JMBass Custom 4-string, natural finish, with an additional MM pickup in the neck position too. No, make that a 5 string. I am on the cover of Bass Player after all. I deserve something free after all these years playing!! Much love P x[/quote] +10000000000000 No one could put it better!

    [quote name='Buzz' post='25059' date='Jun 29 2007, 06:59 PM']Well, after having a look in the bowels of my Squire VMJ, it's got 500k pots, and noticable on/off-ness, so I'm planning over the summer to drop them down to 250k audio taper pots. Might coincide with a Wizard Pickup purchase as well though...and a baddass.[/quote] Buzz changing pot depends on which pickups are installed on your bass, if you have single coils (Jazz bass pickups) then you better use 250k pots, most of the times when the bass comes with 500k pots means that the tone of the pickups is really dark and by using those pots will give more highs to the sound. If you installed SD pups then it's a good idea to install 250k pots, this will give you that vintage jazz bass sound that everybody love. Try to use the same 250k linear pots for the tone control paired with a .40u ceramic capacitor and you'll be fine.

    Don't know about that model but they just announced this: [url="http://www.olpguitars.com/images/lrg_mm22_cherry.jpg"]http://www.olpguitars.com/images/lrg_mm22_cherry.jpg[/url] [url="http://www.olpguitars.com/images/lrg_mm32_cherry.jpg"]http://www.olpguitars.com/images/lrg_mm32_cherry.jpg[/url] And I think they are really nice!

I built one of those as my first project for £10 and 3 hours of fun.

    [quote name='Toasted' post='21602' date='Jun 21 2007, 09:37 PM']McGiver, the light is no good here right now - I'll take some pics tomorrow for you. As far as I am aware no pickups are active apart from EMG's. It's the coupling of the pickup with an active preamp that makes a bass active.[/quote] Not only EMG joe; Bartolini, SD and Peavy all of them have an active line of pickups but yes the most popular of those brands are passive. No problem mate whenever you can.

    Joe Do you have any pics of the Body and neck?

    [quote name='Paul Cooke' post='18590' date='Jun 15 2007, 10:12 PM']the only thing wrong with the B2 and B2.1U is that they lack an aux input for running a CD/MP3 player into.[/quote] That is exactly my criticism to them. In other hand the Behringer Vamp has the line in option and works a treat.

    I use my Zoom B2 and it's fantastic
