You could add one of these.

but I wish you wouldn't. The other thing you could do is get an EB3 and take the mudbucker tone choke out of the signal path.

Dennis, if you think your LB100 is loud you wouldn't believe the nuclear output of the mfd in the SB1. I had to lower the pickup, got TI Infeld superalloys that have a sound which works well with the mfd, and I'm going to add a bunch of shielding in pickup and control cavaties. Was thinking about having Tone Guard make me a gold or black anodized aluminum pg. They want me to send them my guard to make an exact scan, a process they want around $150 for and that dosen't include the cost of the guard at around $89, so kind of a lot to spend on a pg. Does your LB100 have an adjustable pole piece gotoh or is it the Kent Armstrong?

Two tone 'burst over alder body with flame maple cap. #5 quartersawn satin neck. #5 = 1-3/4" wide at nut, Vintage C profile with 7.5" fingerboard radius. Great powerful mfd pick up that can make pick playing sound godly. This is a tight piece of bass!

At one point in time all basses were made with 3 strings. Double basses were tuned A D G, because the technology to make a gut string in the necessarry gauge for an E string hadn't been developed.

That's Felix in the avatar. He's one of my inspirations and the reason I have an EB1 and a Sunn 2000s. I have a group photo of all my axes on the reboot non reverse bird thread over in the project mods and repairs section. I admire your vegetarian dedication. The world would definitely be a better place if people cut down on their intake of animal products.

Woah! You saw the masters HERBIE? That's brilliant. Hope you had a chance to listen to them. Bet it sounds cooler without the same overdubbed applause before each track. Also, I served up a new transcription for ya Lefty, this time with Tab. Blood of the Sun from the Mountain album by Leslie West.
