HazBeen Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 CHEERS Jim! I feel a bit ambivalent about the ACG, love the looks and it plays well. But the EQ really is not what I am looking for after recording some and gigging it. I'm sure the ACG will find a proper home.... and if not I am going to do the unthinkable and replace the preamp with an Aguilar or have it defretted, because I think the EQ would work really well for fretless.

My ACG Harlot has one of those fitted, same number of knobs and twiddly bits yer honer.....Alan fitted it in my last Harlot and my new Harlot is having the same. The East pre amps are very good and more 'traditional' in terms of what we are used to (ie active bass treble and sweepable mid) Alans EQ's are an amazing bit of kit, it just does not suit all.....my brain is far to simple to gain the benefits of the filter based EQ's in the ACG's so the more standard John east circuit fitted the bill for me. Best of luck with the sale - Sure it wont take long Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazBeen Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hi, That is something worth considering indeed. The filter bases preamp is awesome wrt the tonal pallet you have, but I usually keep my EQ pretty much in one setting so it is just too much. Another plan is to make a fretless out of it. That would pretty much be an awesome thing as well. But, first of all let's see if I can get some interest to buy or trade. I would really want another Spector or a high quality Jazz derivative or even the mother of rock basses (not sure what that would be though ..).

topo morto Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi, Was this originally fretless or was it a defret job? How is the fretboard wear - any sign of roundwounds having eaten away at it? How is the action at the nut? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
