Turning on the volume knob on the bass? 🤔😂

Nope, definitely the Rolling Stones third era (the first being with Brian Jones and the second with Mick Taylor) for one photographed rehearsal of Some Girls in 1978, with Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman (with his Travis Bean TB2000 bass) and Mick Jagger. And if you don't recognise them, it's time for an eye check as it's more than obvious: Click twice on the image so see it in full definition. The rest of the unknowns have now been correctly named. And in Jailhouse Rock, press photo of 1957.

There is no such thing as short scale wiring, as a pickup is a pickup... By the way, did you remove the blue heat shrink tubing to discover that there are 4 wires (+ ground) and that the wiring diagram above shows you how to wire a push-pull to have the pickup in split (single coil) and series modes, which is roughly what you want? You could also have the push-pull wired for series/parallel modes, which is not complicated at all if you know what you're doing.

I received the CD yesterday and it's so good that I listened to it 3 times in a row. I can only recommend it.

You didn't search that much @Swills , it literally took me 5 seconds to find the wiring diagram of this pickup (just remove the blue heat shrink tubing to have access to the 4 wires and certainly a fifth ground screening wire): It doesn't matter if it's a 4, 5 or 6 strings bass, the wiring is the same and yours simply has a metal cover. https://sandbergshop.gambiocloud.com/Sandberg-M5-Bridge-Powerhumbucker-Pickup-201.html?language=en

Totally right @tauzero : https://www.sandberg-guitars.de/basses/sandberg-florence-bass-series/

If it's a real Apple product, go on, otherwise buy the real deal or you'll lose your money. 😉

I had the same issue with my Studiologic SL88 GT MK2 MIDI controller keyboard connected to an iPad, it only worked with the official Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter... https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/mw5m3zm/a/usb-c-digital-av-multiport-adapter There is the same adapter for Lightning should you need this version.

Wow, I love it, I've just bought their record. Superb Fazioli piano too, certainly my favourite brand, they sound amazing.

As I've owned so many sixers which are my go-to basses, I can maybe help you find the bass you really want/like just as @binky_bass can too. He is on the fretted side when I'm on the fretless side. It's up to you @DiceSociety 😉

If you go for an Eich amp, don't forget to buy the 5 Megaohms input model as it will be way more suited to double bass dedicated pickups.

At the moment, here in the classified are these basses in your price tag, in order of appearance:

There are plenty of excellent sixers in your budget, but you'd better buy a second hand model as you'll get a higher range one for the same price. The Yamaha TRB-6P is certainly a great bass, with piezo pickups, a through neck, ebony fingerboard, 33 7/8 inches scale length, often around 5 kilos and is the basis of the John Patitucci model, so, certainly ticking all the boxes and was also used by Abraham Laboriel as a fiver.

What about my BassLab L-Bow V?

Buy a Sean Hurley Custom Shop Fender Precision Bass... 🤔🤪😉

Lemmy's unique tone, dating back to the 70's, but so representative of the 80's hard rock scene.

Chainsaw Hara-Kiri? Quite rare these days...

Superb fretless Zon! 😍

As Gibson lost a lot of money in the Tobias case, they certainly won't put the brand name to the highest level, but entry level as some kind of revenge. Furthermore, the original Growler isn't a Mike Tobias design at all as it was a fully Gibson designed instrument, but it was a good attempt to make a versatile quality bass (I owned a brand new one when they reached Europe). I would buy the second hand model found by @Nos and proposed here at a fairly decent price instead of the newer model: https://www.soundpad.co.uk/pre-owned/guitars/bass-guitars/tobias-growler-gr4

I had exactly the same thought... 🤔 🤦🏻
