Apologies I got mixed up, thought this was an open forum called Basschat, I must have stumbled onto Baschat but if your banter is weak......

Here’s a question for you - what’s the difference between an active bass and a passive bass really, especially considering there may be pre-amps used after the actual bass. Is there much of a difference between a passive bass and external pre-amp and an active bass and internal pre-amp except twiddling knobs on the bass or on a pedal with potentially more powerful parameters? Pretty sure it took myself or another couple chaps I know wiping your nose that a bass you owned worked in both active an passive mode - forgot that now makes you the don on all proceedings active in the bass world Is owning a Yammy bass a pre-requisite to be on the thread? One could argue that although you ‘own’ a lot of stuff, the amount of use it gets you may as well not, so maybe you shouldn’t be on those threads (I love the amount of patches and tips you’ve uploaded to the Future Impact and Helix treads by the way - stellar work) or even considering advice on your myriad of ‘creative’ things. FYI had a fiddle around and helped to repair a Yammy bass recently. Gigging - yep, you gig more than me 👏🏿. I’ll ask your advice on how best to set the EQ flat if I need it. When you stop copy pasting and regurgitating other peoples opinions often incorrectly, and form some of your own that aren’t reading a spec sheet, happy for you to toddle back. Otherwise - yes dear....

I forgot you knew exactly what I did and what my gear is, you must remind of your stuff again, not sure I’ve seen it....... Of course you could be honing your craft and sound or perpetuating errors we’ll never know

Yep, having different EQ’s/set ups even for the same bass at the push of a button, instead of twiddling dials to find the ‘sweet spot’ can take an immense amount of time.....

Who me......😇🤪

If we all chip in a fiver, he will defo afford it!

Or enlarge the cavity, pop the stomp inside the bass, then things can be tweaked on the fly with no dead time between songs

Or slice it very thinly someone may have to feed me, jacket is a little twee

With some fava beans.....

Thwarted at every stage If you organise the courier, i’ll Stash it for you

Get the scalpel out and pop it on Ice They keep for a while, what else would you do on a Bank holiday

@dannybuoy Didn’t you know passive basses are a backward step into pre-historic territory

Plenty of other disposable ones

Useless to others

Hence the point of my comments what’s the cavity size, what’s the current wiring schematics - that info you can get whether you own the bass or not by searching on line Then the answer is obvious

What’s the back cavity

Pickguard

Nice work

Leave it looks great Now get ageing that wood like I told ya!

I have just acquired a jag body I have just stripped and am going to refinish and am going through various possibilities of either popping in original type electronics, or doing something different. one thing I have thought of is popping a tonestyler tele plate in the normal control bit. https://store.stellartone.com/group.asp?grp=107 Various iterations here, then on the lower horn I was thinking of wiring a blend knob for if both are selected. Then the upper horn control panel I may fit a Kill switch. It will of course need a different pick guard. i dunno just an idea....

There is no doubt neck fingerboard makes a massive difference, that is what you press the string against to get the sound you then transmit - basic common. Sense denotes that

Not sure I could describe such a massive band as Fleetwood Mac as a ‘guilty pleasure’ , if you had said Jedward...

I do That neck is absolutely to die for, only thing better is the Brew @Wolverinebass makes

What you are suggesting here is that there is then a difference in tonewoods, but they may have picked the best of one wood against the worst of another to accentuate the difference - but this means that there is still a difference does it not? Or did warmoth do something like if we wanted to answer the question who in the country are better athletes Northerners or southerners. For the North we pick Jessica Ennis Hill, for the South we pick Boris Johnson - see Northerners are better athletes.....
