gjones Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) John East J-Retro Pre Amp for sale. This is the solderless version which you can just drop into the control cavity of your Jazz Bass and then attach to the pickups via the screw connection. It's a fantastic pre amp, which I've had fitted in my spare Jazz for about 9 months. When I first bought it, the treble pot gave a very slight electronic crackle when adjusted (which now and again it still does). I didn't bother to inform John East about it because, other than that, it works perfectly. Edited September 20, 2012 by gjones
Dolando Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Hello, interested in this, would this work on a Jazz with mm jazz pickup combination? cheers.

[/quote] If you're talking about a Musicman pickup fitted to a Jazz bass, then I assume so? Do you have a pre amp fitted already? To be sure I would email John East directly from his website [url="http://www.east-uk.com/"]http://www.east-uk.com/[/url]
Dolando Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Well to be honest the guitar doesn't actually exist, just planning a jazz 5 string build, so not even sure what pickups i want yet. And do intend to put in a preamp and I've always liked the J retro. Will drop them a message.

Then somebody bagged it 5 mins later and it's now sold. Sorry for the confusion.
