The Last Bass Outpost

very nice indeed.thanks.

i guess this is a mod so i will try posting it here.heres the circuit i have ended up with in my eb4l.front pickup is a 1966 eb3 mudbucker,rear added pickup is 2 carvin blade single coils(one rwrp)together,standard humbucker size.the pot on the left pans the tops on the rear pickup between single coil and humbucking,the switch next to it i put in because the extemes of the 500k pot sounded great but it fell off slightly in the middle.interestingly it seems to make things slightly clearer by moderating some of the mid bass and shifting the resonant peak in the tops.the pickup blend pot does just that.the switch on the mudbucker turns the tops from that pickup to single coil.i didnt expect this to do too much but i can hear it.

i just got back from auckland where i went to see the pixies ,anyway while i was there i went to the rockshop bass  store and played a money bass an sg ri and a rumblecat.i have to say the only one i could see myself buying would be the rumblecat.i would probably wire the pickups in series,but thats a story for another day.

the driver there is having way too much fun.pretty neat idea.

well done.dont forget to put some wax under the cover so it doesnt become microphonic.

the way the mid control is hooked up to the cathodes seems like it might be in part some sort of negative feed back semi active arrangement?i dont quite understand it.tricky buggers.

i have an ampeg svt2 preamp.i like it a lot but sometimes i wish it wasnt quite so focussed on the low mids.does anyone know if there is circuitry in there to do this or am i imagining it.
