Monckyman Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) [s]Looking for a Bassmax [/s]for my first foray into amplified DB since my Polytone pickups in the 80s. I`m flexible,and open to suggestions for other makes and models, but the Bassmax is my first choice. Ta, MM Planet Wings bought,thanks. Edited December 30, 2011 by Monckyman
marvin spangles Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 Can't comment on the Bass Max . I have experience with the Rev solo , Shadow and Full circle. The Full circle works for me. Natural sound with no issues.
ceilidhswinger Posted December 1, 2011 Posted December 1, 2011 I'm looking for an Underwood or Shadow pick up at the moment, I'm using Fishman BP100 just now which I like for the most part but seems to choke on the G string. I did buy the K&K Sound Bass Master Pro Upright Bass Pickup System but took it off, couldn't get a good sound from it. I swapped it for a spare BP100 and some other bits and pieces. I also have a magnetic Schaller which has a good sound but being metal, rattles like a jailers keys when amplified.
Monckyman Posted December 10, 2011 Author Posted December 10, 2011 Still looking for a decent pickup.
Monckyman Posted December 27, 2011 Author Posted December 27, 2011 still Haven`t found what I`m looking for
TPJ Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) I just bought [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260917176483?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_980wt_1139"]one of these[/url] for my EUB. I haven't tried it yet but they get good reviews on doublebasschat.com. I figured it was worth a punt at the price. He shipped it very quickly Edited December 27, 2011 by TPJ
