    Phew! I’m lucky that I can just plug my bass in, set the knobs to noon, and it sounds awesome 😄

    I think there’s a couple of lines of discussion here. - What do I need to do to flatten the EQ on my amp? - What is the point of a flat EQ? - Why do so many amp manufacturers bake a curve into the EQ that you can’t necessarily get rid of? There’s probably a few more TBH
  3. wateroftyne
    I guess my point could be this: Why do so many amp manufacturers bake in a scoop that you can't get rid of? Not everyone wants one. (see also: Sansamp)
  4. wateroftyne
    Or in my case, not. So… we’re back to horses for courses. But let’s not forget the OP wants to know how to get a flat response from the EQ of their amp.
  5. wateroftyne
    Almost but not quite for me. All those knobs and I couldn’t put back what was (IMO) missing.
  6. wateroftyne
    Have you ever tried to get flat on a walkabout? 😄
  7. wateroftyne
    So... we're saying it doesn't matter what, if any, baked-in EQ an amp has because our hearing and speakers are all different. Makes me wonder even more why the EQ is just left flat by default so we can just make our own minds up 😄
  8. wateroftyne
    I actually find the opposite. Scooped in the shop, all nice and smooth. But for me, the energy and character is in the middle.
  9. wateroftyne
    Problem is (for me, anyway) many builders favour a baked-in scoop by default, which does nowt for me.
  10. wateroftyne
    I understand there are other factors, but we're specifically talking about flat EQ here... aren't we?
  11. wateroftyne
    Yes, my assumption that it is flat is based entirely on my assessment that it sounds flat 😄 Not really. It's based on the plot that Leszek sent me back in the day.
  12. wateroftyne
    That's curious - AFAIK the Handbox preamp is near-as-damn-it flat at 12 o'clock (happy to be convinced otherwise), and I love it flat.

    I've got 3 P's and a Maruszczyk P now. TBH I didn't intend to buy a couple of new P's (I'm still holding out for something early 70's), but I liked the look of 'em. I know, I know...
  14. wateroftyne
    Too early to tell... it's going to be an interesting comparison though!
  15. wateroftyne
    ...so far, I prefer the neck of the 50s. As for the rest... time will tell.

    Aaaaand... American Original 50s Precision:
  17. wateroftyne
    Hi all! Somehow I've ended up with these. Can't quite remember how it happened, but there you go. First up - American Original 60s Precision:

    Lindisfarne Festival, Northumberland. Lively.

    Status GP signature edition.

    Ah, great. I keep forgetting the WB is best with the output maxxed. Believe me when that power stage starts to glow at the gig, your life will change 🙂
  21. wateroftyne
    Out of curiosity, does the buzz subside when you roll the input back? Just wonder if the pre is being hit too hard..
  22. wateroftyne
    Apologies - partially fuelled by an earlier response.
  23. wateroftyne
    Deary me. I didn't say it was. I didn't say it wasn't a problem. I just said that I couldn't recreate it in my browser. But as it happens, I can see that there's a problem between the breakpoint at 600px and c700px. Like I say, I was just curious. No need for people to jump down my throat..!
  24. wateroftyne
    I would too (I do this for a living!) but mine responds correctly. Must be browser-specific.
  25. wateroftyne
    Eh? Why are you scared of questions? Just trying to help re: the first one, and was genuinely curious re: the second.
