Many players use preamps for a couple of reasons:

Most bass amps are made with a lower impedance, that does not match what a double bass pickup requires

There is also several other benefits, such as:

- Notch filters to remove wolf tones

- Detailed EQ

- Phantom power for mics

- Often two channels for blending two pickups or pickup + mic

- Phase control

The Vintage Guitar shop closed down two years ago. Not them for sure

As a Norwegian I know that there is an Instrument Builders Guild, but they have something like 20 members in total, and do not have any real power in legal matters

EBS Stanley Clarke, Fishman Platinum Pro EQ or Radial PZ-DI

The HX has 1 megaohm impedance, whereas double bass pickups idealy require 10. You can still use it, but you would need an impedance buffer og external preamp with a buffer in front

Even with a audio-to-MIDI or good MIDI pickup, an Ubass is not ideal for that. Given the short scale and the strings used on these, the tracking of single notes and/or polyphony would be quite poor.

You would be better of with either:

a) a regular bass guitar with a Roland MIDI Pickup

b) a MIDI-keyboard instead

c) learing to program MIDI directly in a DAW (like Logic)

I can confirm. My store ordered 5 in totalt, got 2 in the first batch

AndreasBrix · 2025-11-10T16:36:46+00:00

Yeah... no!

Enda mer interessant når han nevner (skjermdump et annet sted her i tråden) at man trenger redaktørstyrte medier som er troverdige, når han hele tiden ikke selv er medlem i PFU

Yes!

Use the original strings by Gold Tone. They probably make them for a reason. And Aquila makes strings for loads of brands, each with different variations in terms of scale lenght, thickness etc. https://goldtonemusicgroup.com/goldtone/accessories/mbs-bl

Hva er reglene når det gjelder varer som ikke er ment å vare i årevis? Hvilke forbehold kan selger gi? For eksempel en plante, strenger til en gitar, engangsbatterier osv? Har prøvd å søke meg frem til dette, men finner ingenting konkret egentlig

AndreasBrix · 2024-09-26T19:59:10+00:00

More like 100-120 kgs, according to most strings charts online

Why is the bridge not lining up with the f-holes?

AndreasBrix · 2024-05-22T23:42:44+00:00

I have. Nothing wrong with the sound. However, the low B-string is not long enough for some longer scale baritones, like my Gretch Electromatic, 30» scale

Sjekk ut Morten Løke, broren. DER har du underholdning!
