... I use Francis Deck's HPF/Pre. It combines an adjustable high-pass filter with a high impedance input. Simple but very nice unit. (home-made but very well...
... My Aria EUB has a built in pre-amp, but I also use a dTar Solstice preamp. The Solstice works well with acoustic and electric instruments and is very...
A piezo pickup captures a lot of very low frequencies, which are pushing your amp and speaker for nothing. You'll notice your tone is much more open and less...
I have an old Sadowsky box for my Underwood pickup on the bass (custom built 1/4 scale EUB), but my trusty old G-K MB-200 combo can deal with the Underwood...
Thank you Francois Much food for thought. Would it be valuable to include a bass compressor in the pickup circuit (limit the bass in a smooth/non distorting...
My pleasure, Marvin. I entertained the idea of using a compressor myself. Didn't buy one yet, though. Maybe the Fishman preamp/EQ/compressor could be an...
Adjustable between 35 and 140 Hz, 12dB/octave slope. It also features a phase reversal switch. Maker is francisdeck@... but he can't export to the EU yet,...
There was a recent thread on talkbass where a few people gave the thumbs up to an Aphex Bass Xciter as an EUB pre-amp. That effectively compresses the low end,...

My favorite preamp for EUB is that which is in the Gallien-Krueger MB 150E-III combo amp. One can turn the speaker off if need be in a studio setting. I ...
... I bought a second hand LR Baggs Gigpro several months ago but it didn't fill me needs completely. The unit is extremely well made though, and even features...
... When I first got my (original model) Acoustic Image Coda, my one concern was that it lacked some punch. Then I played around with the amp's notch filter...
... Yes, I do think so! Everything below that is not only useless but a nuisance for your bass amp system to perform at its best. (of course I'm not talking of...
Re: `piezo grittiness` I note that many talk of this but the pickups that I use are linear from 30Hertz to 100kHertz (I had to optimize the circuit to get it...
This is an interesting observation of particular interest to me since I am working on optimizing circuits and speakers in this area. The overriding issue is:...
I also prefer 12" speakers for my EUB. My amp is an SWR California Blonde. I haven't heard the acoustic image amps, but my SWR does quite well. I also have...
