ELECTRONICS FOR YOUR INSTRUMENT

We offer the following Preamps in our basses. The choice often depends on the pickups with which these electronic packages will work. Below you will find a brief descripton of each available package.

WATSON

Yes - the time has come to provide our own preamps in our own instruments. We have been working in a partnership with David McKeen to come up with the perfect onboard preamp system to compliment our own pickups. The result is our own branded WATSON preamp.

It is an 18v system providing 3-band EQ and active/passive bypass. It will also be configured to be able to switch between coils in our dual coil or tapped coil pickups without any loss of signal strength. 4-band will also be available sometime soon.

Glockanklang We currently feature Glockenklang preamps in all out fretless basses.
Audere Audere electronics provide state of the art electronics packages which are fully customizable. When we need a 4-band preamp with all the bells and whistles this is what we use. Audere will also customize a preamp for us for any non-standard control layout.
Aguilar Aguilar preamps are also available in 3-band 9 or 18v configurations with mid frequency selector switch for added tonal control.
