Good points Coldplay would have done better with that colour

And don’t ever end a line with the word Orange

They do use light wires, can’t remember how many fibres, but it all fits nicely into the cavity, I suppose it may feel/seem weird compared to the old cloth fender wires, but didn’t seem much thinner than ones I have seen elsewhere. wouldn't harm popping a thicker gauge if there is room I suppose. we like pictures if you have them!

Oh and strings DR Hi Beams it DR DDT

Look at the Seymour Duncan APB-1 pick ups. Naturally kid scooped, and more treble to them. Yes they are active, but the pre-amp is located in the pick up housing. They used to come with a switchable pre-amp but over the years they found that in general people only used 1 setting, and thus it is set to that. Great sounding pick ups

Is it a passive VS or does it have a Glockenklang pre amp? Their wiring is very precise

Yes Dear........

@Al Krow crikey this is painful. Normal as in one has not switched the min load switch at the back of the amp which you use when using a 2 ohm load, or to lower the output if your 4ohm can cannot handle more than 500w, which also gives you 350w with an 8ohm Cab. That is all that I am saying. This means it is safe to use the M900 with BF One 10’s using various iterations of 1 or 2 daisy chained. I make no reference to distortion or pedals (not everyone has a pedal collection facility) or which cab manufacturer or size speaker cone sounds better. Your words (not mine) quoted with no alteration were 2 BF One 10’s cannot handle the full power of the DG M900. It’s wrong, it can clean, and if you flick the switch it can dirty, so if you meant by ‘unleashing’ it using everything maxed, they can do that too, but by the manoeuvre described above. So what you said was, it can’t, wrong. But if you meant you don’t want to that’s fine, but that’s not what you said. Thats all

Al, lets put this to bed. You stated 2 BF One 10s would not handle the M900 in normal output full mode. This factually incorrect, you can disagree all you like, but you are wrong based on information from manufacturers and physics, conflating and moving the argument around is just smoke and mirrors Preference of Cabs is another issue which is neither agree nor disagree, it’s just choice, and I never made that point about either cabs ability, so all your agreements or disagreements are purely with yourself

But thats precisely the point dear Al. What you said was mis-informed and plain wrong, and at that point we didn’t know they were after VK’s, and with the drive only just past noon and the blend more towards clean, gain not maxed and vol on about 1, it’s hardly extreme settings. Daisy chaining 2 of those cabs brings it manageable in its normal mode, however the conscession I will make is that if you flip the switch to 2ohms like you can on this amp, the sound you get with that Cab combination will be way punchier and better. As a stickler for details Al , thought you and others may appreciate correct information

@artisan good luck with getting your cabs VK’s are great. @Al Krow are you sure about those figures regarding the BF One10s?

Let’s not get into that speaker cone size debate again....... So many variables Congrats on NAD

Plus I actually dialled the drive back a bit this morning, must remember to turn it up again

Ha! Yep, but it works!! Allows me to play clean with a decent one, hit the mix for a gnarly tone, but also with chunk engaged and tone rolled off on the bass, it’s a gentle break up, at least when I play

Sunday Morning and dUg is playing nicely with his mates. It is an ashtonishing pedal.

I can vouch for Mark as someone to deal with. Great phone and email comms and a nice guy when you meet in person.

For clarity you can see a representation of the leads and pins on the diagram Each connector generally straddles 2 pins

Morning chaps. I picked up some EMG HB pick ups to ‘upgrade’ my Hohner B2A bass. I was getting problems with intermittent signal when I tried to use the solderless connectors onto the barrel jack RST as the supplied jack would not fit the bass. It would work for about 20 mins and then would have problematic intermittent signals, so I soldered them to the jack and it’s still not right. My next assumption is that it could be the other end of connections where it slides onto the pins. Done a load of research and it seems a not uncommon problem that because the wire is of a fixed length, in a tight cavity they are bent and it affects signal. The question is am I OK to clip off the solderless connectors and solder the bare wires to the pins on the vol and tone units provided, or must I go to old school pots? Cheers

Being Scots both me and you are not far away!!!

I was going to edit to say fingers, but I also have nothing against red heads!
