The Sadowsky was nice tone-wise but too limited (2eq and to powerful). C[/quote] I'd appreciate that buddy, how hard are the J Retros to install?

[quote name='Clarky' post='722542' date='Jan 23 2010, 08:17 PM']Hi Wayne, Beedster is probably your man for asking about putting pre-amps in Fenders as he has tried J-retro and Audere, two of the most highly tipped. ACG I believe get good write-ups too. I had an Audere in the Jazz I sold a month or two back. It was like putting the bass on steroids. Loads more tonal options from sparkly hi-fi, to clean classic Jazz to deep and low (could even get a P bass thump out of it), a really good piece of kit. Also solder-free idiot-proof instalation (hence I managed it). If you want an active option in a Jazz I really recommend the Audere. Also battery lasts for absolutely ages and has a warning when running low so no chance of it dying on you mid-gig.[/quote] The Audere looks pretty good, solder free is good.

I guess we can take heart that he had achieved his dream and was on top of the world, absolute tragedy. Can't stop thinking about this.

I have 3 Jazzes all passive love them all but fancy spicing one of them up a bit. It'll be either my MIM with SD Quarter Pounders or my HW1 with standard PUPs, both have Badass II's on. I've seen loads of pre-amps avilable but not sure what the difference is, can anyone explain?

How distasteful are the ones on the left?

Horrific just like everything else they make.

Foo Fighters only went crap after the first 2 albums. Also

Not as yet, due to the interest if the OP isn't still up for organising I would be happy to do it.

Here's 'that bass'

This, the horns are awesome.

Deeply saddened by this, my thoughts are with both families and the band.

I'll be buried with my fave Jazz and the rest you lot can fight over.

I should have had that

Been trying to play this all the way through for ages.

Went to see Alex this afternoon to try and get an idea of what I should get super Jazz at the end of the year the place is amazing.

[quote name='ped' post='719462' date='Jan 20 2010, 07:20 PM']Probably because it's lighter, though I could be wrong! ped[/quote] I've done that before, or given up and just taken the 4X10 into the venue.

[quote name='Wil' post='719447' date='Jan 20 2010, 07:06 PM']NOFX covering Olympia W.A. by Rancid. Great song.[/quote] Great album.

Just wondering why you have the 15 above the 4X10? Nice MM
