Orra best Ian M [/quote] Hi ian making one right now, 2 waiting to start, maybe one interesting EUB THEN i get to start on 1 or hopefully 2 secret projects....... Loving your work as always, super attention to detail and really nice wood choices. Dave

super nice

Ive just ordered a mag pickup for exactly the same reason. Piezo when quiet gigs and Mag for loud fun crazy stuff, listening to Simon's recordings made up my mind! Just got to change out my gut G now

I'm 20 mins from you, pop on over and have a go on some 5's. I'm not trying to sell anything just come have a coffee chat and a jam

I've got a notch filter on the headway (and HPF and phase switch) i'll give that a go, the audio tools analyser looks like a good idea to. I've played DB in a rock n roll band before an have always got reasonable tone at high volume just by slightly cutting relevent frequencies on the amp and the HPF/phase switch on the Fdeck. I did the same this weekend but had to cut more and more aggressively to a point where I though i might get a better tone with steel strings and mag pickup. The more i think about it i'm not sure it wasnt more to do with the room, its a new practice room, the small drum kit with a light hitter sounded bloody loud (and i'm used to playing elec bass in a pop/rock band with a fairly hard hitter) I think i'm shying away from Mag as i love my strings so much when playing unamplified at home, no more string GAS. I might suggest we reherse somewhere else even if for a one off before doing anything drastic. Thanks Dave

full circle and also got fitted one of those cheap ebay wing mounted things Headway pre or (better) fdeck clone

I know this question comes up all the time, but this is a bit specific (in my head) I have started playing in an acoustic pop covers band, super fun stuff, loads of energy and VOLUME with a drummer playing a full kit, it’s only a small kit and the girl doesn’t hit em too hard but they seem quite loud for their size and how hard she’s hitting them so I need some fairly serious volume. I recently picked up a PJB 8b cab which at home I can get the best DB sound I’ve ever had and very very happy with it at sensible volume, however, obviously at high volumes I’m having to cut quite a bit out of the eq to beat the feedback and can get loud enough but still fighting feedback a bit but obviously the tone is pretty pants. I’ve read a lot no here about schaller mag pickups, so it doesn’t sound like a DB, but then neither does my piezo at high volume. SO just at high volume would a mag sound better / fuller than piezo? I know that’s hard as you don’t know what mine sounds like but has anyone had experience with changing to mag in a similar environment? My current strings wont work with mag and I LOVE my strings so that’s another negative to switching over. Are there any youtube clips etc of mag pickups in a full band situation Would it be better to go IEM just for bass and position my cab away from me (other side of the drums)???? Either way is gonna cost some money I don’t really have so I thought I would ask here before taking the plunge.
