  1. Yeah the Xotic BB Pre is the obvious choice here IMO. The fuzzrocious Broke Dick Peanut Gallery is the curveball, awesome pedal I've not tried one, but the Catainbread SFT gets plenty of love too! Si

    Another Bass BB Pre, this was requested with a plain enclosure. Pretty happy with the neatness of the insides: [IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/1zqv90y.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i42.tinypic.com/3010hat.jpg[/IMG] Si
  3. Genuinely surprised this is still here! Si

    If it's a one off, stripboard it. If it's a simple build (fuzz or boost), turret board it Si
  5. [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1384446657' post='2276842'] It will be more like a stingray scratchplate than a pbass plate, as it won't go down to the knobs - one reason why I got the green pearl inly knobs. [/quote] So you're building a Fleabass? Si
  6. [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1384429948' post='2276540'] It has changed a little as just ordered some q-parts chrome green pearl topped dome knobs.....otherwise as you were OK so for my next guess: 51 style slab p body alder in sonic blue white 3 ply scratchplate tele headstock shape maple board neck# vintage style reverse tuners single coil 51 pickup Fender BBOT vintage bridge Flats with a slight relic job ?? [/quote] Nothing I'm afraid lol. Ok so, the correct specs so far, without giving away details further than what people have guessed are: Alder body Maple neck & fingerboard Gotoh Bridge Si
  7. HA I've messaged KiOgon to ask details, the solderless connections sounds interesting for swapping pickup sets in and out Si

  14. Hi guys, I'm currently putting together a Fender/parts Precision build. Instead of posting the spec, I'll wait until it's finished (much more fun ) Instead, I'll open it up to the floor for a bit of a guessing game........aaaaaaaaand go! Si
  15. Good luck wrapping that back up so she doesn't notice Si
  16. Shame two of the knobs are missing, but yes, great find. Wonder how it sounds next to my Green clone Si

    I've never used a heatsink. With diodes and transistors also, I'll solder one leg, then do something else, then do the others. Just breaks up the heat to the component. I'll also socket all ICs, most transistors, and some diodes Si

    [quote name='pete.young' timestamp='1383910976' post='2270657'] That looks nice Si. Is that the Big Beefy? (Can't quite figure out some of Poodle's naming conventions!) [/quote] Yes it's the Big Beefy (BB Pre) Si
  19. And as if by magic: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv0oqDxP6_I"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv0oqDxP6_I[/url] Cheers Si
  20. Very cool that you've made such progress with it . As you point out, the next challenge will be mounting in an enclosure and determining what controls can be included on the pedal. Great project! Si

    Finished the PedalParts Bass BB Pre last night. Sounds great, slightly less bass than the Xotic, although still more than enough to not lose any from your signal. More gain than the Xotic and not as compressed to my ears: [IMG]http://i39.tinypic.com/ixb5i1.jpg" class="ipsImage" /> [IMG]http://i43.tinypic.com/288uy3b.jpg" class="ipsImage" /> Si
