Long dead thread- but for those who have recovered their 70's/80's speakers, what is the closest Tolex to the original? In this thread, "Fender 70's" was tossed around but if there is more detail, that would be great!

End of the road?

The two statements are not incongruous...

WTF? Blocked because I am eagerly awaiting the conclusion? How Trumpian of you...

I am just anxious for your success- but feel free to block me!

So?

Tom: Who or what is G&B? Do you have a link?

Huh?

The check is in the mail!

Congratulation! Per David Byrne: Patience is a virtue, but I don't have much time... The transparency of the finish is what makes it pop! Please explain why it is easier to play than the Wal? Also, it seems to me, if I was a betting man, that the reverse engineered pre-amp will not get installed for an A/B test....

When Funkle finishes his experiment, I want to take a recording of his Wal, his Wal-ish bass and the Octave bass and do a blind test.... Yes, Octave man should be getting a knock on his door shortly.... but as you know Wal has no time to even take a fosters, let alone hire US attorneys....

They may not be as close to what "might" be achieved, but they are much much closer than what Lusithand and Turner sounds like

Just for the record, Octave man will be selling his p/ups and amps at the end of the summer and I think it is obvious that he is the only one thus far who has achieved the goal... If you disagree, post a link to a sound sample...

who are you referring to?

Also, when I go back and listen the u-tube video of the Turner+Lusithand installed in the Jazzus bod:y https://youtu.be/p7g1cpHSyQk the output is a long way from the Octave bass recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mCuSYD9Drs Is it not true that the Octave guy is using the Lusithand amp? If so, then the Turner pickups must be the predominant issue... Would you not agree that the Octave guy has solved this problem???????
