Hello friends! There hasn’t been anything new in this thread for a long time, so I remember to post to you recordings of my pickups and preamp on a fretless jazz bass. Happy listening! Fretless JB + MultiTone pickups_preamp - example 1.mp3 Fretless JB + MultiTone pickups_preamp - example 2.mp3 Fretless JB + MultiTone pickups_preamp - RAV VAST.mp3 Fretless JB + MultiTone pickups_preamp - ethno1.mp3

I would prefer not to put filters when connecting single pickups, and the usual humbuckers. This is applicable with a typical size like wal

Yes, these little things give a tangible result

Good day to all! As promised, I recorded a sound comparison using a tsobel filter, and without. 1 half of it is with the use of a filter, the second half without it. Неизвестен - Без названия (1).mp3

Hello everyone I made a small video review, clicked the settings a little, I think everything will be clear 3333333 (video-converter.com).flv

I quickly sketched out a small sample L.mp3

Hello friends! In general, all installations are completed, and final conclusions can be drawn. These sounds rock the low frequencies very much. Despite the fact that I use the original Zobel filter, it feels great. With the tsobel filter disabled, there are so many low ones that you begin to understand the expediency of using it

Since I cast the casings myself, it takes a certain amount of time, and is the most difficult stage. The height of the pickups eventually amounted to 25 mm.

Yes, I am currently busy casting 5-string cases in p2 format (bartolini). I estimate the interstring distance under the bridge at an average of 17.5 mm

I used steel cores with a diameter of 5 mm. Of these, I built coils with a height of 11 mm and a diameter of 13 mm. He wound a wire with a diameter of 0.05 mm, about 10,000 turns. As a result, I completely filled the coil, and reached the resistance of 2k5. The final resistance of the pickup when connecting the coils in series-in parallel came out 1k2. The capacitance was about 80 pf, and the inductance was about 1.8 Henry. This is ideal for preamp, it remains only to adjust the peak attack, which is also done in the original scheme. I used ceramic magnets. Since the standard length of the steel rod is 15 mm, taking into account the coil and the board, the gap between the magnet and the coil was 3 mm. This is more than acceptable. Although, even if the magnet was lying close, it wouldn't bother me

Hello everyone, friends! Today I finished the first set of pickups in multicoil format. I changed the form factor a bit, but kept all the original coil arrangements. I will make the first samples soon, it remains only to install them in the bass.

Thank you very much! This is the best compliment!

The one who made the recordings has not yet understood all the nuances, the same sound periodically slips through, but he still has everything ahead of him!

You're right, my friend!

the 4th track is really jazz bass, but the 1st is not washburn) I think it's easiest to do on the B string :))
