S'manth x i'm paying a local guy to do some major mods on a homemade bass i built and one of those mods is adding a 5 way switch for multiple pickups configs. i don't have the soldering abilities to do it. definitely not to do it nice and neatly! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S'manth x so, i wonder if i could sit that next to the pickup selector and integrate it into the mix. i absolutely love the 400hz and lower tones. it might be overkill, but it would be a cool feature! does that make sense? sorry, am i hijacking the thread? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you! It was very fiddly and I only ended up doing a six way! It was a good mod tho. Another neat one is to add in some onboard distortion https://tonefiend.com/guitar/onboard-distortion-without-a-battery/ S'manth x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my latest self build I am going to do as little as possible on the bass itself (To achieve as minimal a look as I can) and do all f/x in my pedal (A self build multi-fx) S'manth x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last self build was a p style with only single volume knob (although i recently changed it to concentric vol/tone) but the mods on this one will be 3 pickups with multiple switching options, knobs and likely push pull pots!

Their shop is interesting - the bassman style tube preamp looks very cool. "This is a totaly new and patented design. It features three tubes: one buffer, one tube to drive the top of the sine wave and one to drive the bottom of the sine wave. The sine wave does not get clipped in square forms like in normal preamp overdrive and in overdrive and fuzz pedals but gets compressed softly, retaining a round shape. This results in a very warm and natural sound." Seems like you'd be on safe ground buying from them - they seem to be deep in the bass geek zone!

msb Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I immediately bypassed the .0047 cap on my old 4001 , and have never had second thoughts. until now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
