KennysFord Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Hey folks, i'm after an active 2 band eq with bass,treble and volume. cheers. Edited January 23, 2009 by kennyrodg
Ou7shined Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) If it's for a 2 pup bass then you might consider [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ARTEC-SE2A-2-Band-EQ-Circuit-Guitar-Bass-DIY-COMPLETE_W0QQitemZ120355283173QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar_Accessories?hash=item120355283173&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177"]this[/url] (has Bal pot too). A proper search might turn up a better deal on one. or Speak to Neepheid. I think he might have a used one that he can't decide what to do with. Edited January 22, 2009 by Ou7shined
KennysFord Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Cheers buddy, I spotted those and the other Artec ones.I cant find anything in this country tho',well not that i can afford.There's a 3 bander for sale on here but i aint got room for 4 pots.Thanks for the heads up and i'll drop Neepheid a line.Something like the one he used in his homebuilt would be perfect. Shoulda said,it's for a single humbucker. Edited January 22, 2009 by kennyrodg
6stringbassist Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 You can have the one from my Marcus Miller bass if you wanted, it's bass and treble boost, but no volume though.
KennysFord Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 Cool, but i thought you'd sold it mate. If it'll work with my existing passive volume pot (i'm clueless about the electronic side of things btw) could you give me a price. Cheers, Pete.
6stringbassist Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I sold the PU's, you can have for £25 posted if you want it. I'm going to keep it passive for a bit, I'm undecided what to change the pre to.
KennysFord Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 Bugger, i just found out that this pre wont fit under my scratchplate.pm'd again with apologies. still looking.
Ou7shined Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Well then just to let you know, this thread reminded me that I have a completely unused 3 band Artec for sale. :brow: The only drawback for you is it's the 5 pot version (the top one [url="http://www.artecsound.com/pickups/electronics/se3.html"]here[/url]). I know you're not looking to fit 5 pots but you (or your tech) could put on your own concentrics to suit. FYI this set needs a minimum of 30mm depth in the control cavity but if you are putting your own pots on you could lay it flat - probably a little over 10mm then.
KennysFord Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Paul has that unit and we've tried it today and it's a no go-er.However we didnt think about concentric pots. Thanks all the same though. Cheers. Edited January 22, 2009 by kennyrodg
BassBunny Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Pete, Try AxesRUs. they do a wide range of pre-amps including Artec. [url="http://www.axesrus.com/axeknobs.htm#effects"]http://www.axesrus.com/axeknobs.htm#effects[/url]
