Just ordered an Audere pre for my 70s Jazz.

..... and not spending loads of cash on gear this year.

Will report back when I get it and let you know how I get on with it.

This will be my first foray into active since the Status Empathy I had I the 90s!!!!

Ooh very tasty! I've been considering getting the same preamp for my primary Jazz, which at the moment has a plain old stack knob configuration. Let us all know how you get on

Nice one. Got one of these on my US Jazz and it is an excellent sounding pre-amp. The Low-Z mode in particular sounds really good and gives an excellent bottom end boost that turns the thing into a bit of an animal!
