SisterAbdullahX Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Hi all, just on a whim I fancy a try of a J-Retro Deluxe preamp, the one with the passive tone control. I used to have a John East/ACG02 preamp that was a great sounding thing, but being a filter based preamp I found it a little finnicky (technical term) to use. I currently have an Audere JZ3 2 band, 4 control pre in my Warmoth Jazz. It is set up vol/vol/bass and treble cut and boost/passive tone control. Anyone fancy swapping their J-Retro for this?
gilmour Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Is it the kind for a side mounting Jack? Because the J Retro deluxe needs the bass to have the side loading jack.

NJE Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Are you thinking about selling the Audere at all?

hubrad Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 I don't know if this would be of interest, but I have a J-Retro Deluxe which came on a second-hand Overwater Jazz; it's a brilliant piece of kit, but being a bear of little brain I just can't cope with so much onboard control, so I swapped it out and made up something simpler for that bass. If you have someone interested in the Audere and I have a 'spare' East we could probably all end up happy! A little more complicated, but there you go.
Monckyman Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Hi, does anyone have a UK outlet/seller for the Audere range? Thanks.
