Jezyorkshire Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Got my Westbury upright set up when i bought it with full circle as my last bass had one on and it was great, im not sure that it suits this one as much so got Shadow sh950 of ebay for £38 !!!, have just fitted it and it seems to be smoother and warmer, i think a bit of tweaking on the fit in wing slots will improve it slightly as i think my G side slot may be a little tight, it does seem to be more balanced with both sides in slots as i know some only have one in, im going through a fishman pro platt but have a Headway edb2 coming that i got of ebay used so will be interesting comparing the two .

Jezyorkshire Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 Found a problem that has been resolved with the Full Circle, it was on the g foot and it should have been on the e foot, all the problems are were having have gone and it sounds great, well at least i have a back up pickup i know works now for very little money, cant wait to see what it sounds like with the headway edb2 Quote
Jezyorkshire Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 Thanks Peter, i did a gig and the sound guy said he couldnt get enough bottom end from the Full Circle and it sounded to much midrange, all this has been sorted just by fitting it to the e foot which is where it is designed to be lol Quote
ubassman Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 If a sound guy ever says you are too 'bottom end' in his venue, ...well, you know what to do to sort that one! Quote
Jezyorkshire Posted March 17, 2014 Author Posted March 17, 2014 lol, its always better to be in a position of having to cut than boost! Headway came and i think the top end is a little more realistic than the pro platt though its close, pro platt is easier to adjust as theres less things to mess with but i think the headway has the edge and its 2 channel and can ad a mike signal Quote
philparker Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 That's why I bought the Headway - so I could blend a Full Circle with a mic, but I haven't had chance to try it in a gig situation yet. Glad you're sorted! Quote
ubassman Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Did you mention you were playing on Weichs? - just was wondering what you thought in comparison to my Mittels? Quote
Jezyorkshire Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 Your Mittels on your bass are as easy to play as the weichs are on mine , yours may actually feel a bit easier, i think its probably in the fingerboard scoop, mittels on mine are a pig, i would need a much flatter board for them to work Quote
ubassman Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Gotcha - never really thought of scoop like that but makes perfect sense. Quote
