I know this is an old post, but just so you know, I used the switch to turn the system on and off. I asked Audere to custom-make the switch circuit for me (mosfet, so there is no pop in the speakers). Now I don’t have to unplug the audio cable to save the batteries (two 9v = 18volts), just play and turn off the system when done... ask them about it. You’re right about this preamp. It converted my 6-string Peavey Grind so-so bass into a “$5000 Studio masterpiece”. I’ve been with Audere for 7years now. Best preamp out there.
@longdongbongchong5 жыл бұрын
Hey man that's which sounds like a great idea. I'm about to buy this preamp and I have a quick question for you. If the switch disengages the circuit will the bass still play? Or is it strictly for the purposes of being able to not unplug your Bass?

Anderson you’re like a kid opening up his favorite toy on Christmas regarding your Audere preamp. Even grown men can get excited about their bass in beast mode.
@bassworship505 ай бұрын
You're absolutely correct sir. David @ Audere has made me 4 other custom preamps too! They give me the sound I've always looked for. This particular bass was given to my cousin whose a bassist in So. Fla. I tried to get it back and he won't budge. It's ok because I have the same preamp in another Squier CV 70's Jazz bass. Check out my channel to see/hear my custom shop Fender Elite Jazz bass with the Audere JZ6 "programmable" preamp. There's nothing like Audere! 😂😅😂😅

Thanks to you I ordered the Classic 5 control for my Warmoth project. I have the body which is roasted ash and I'm waiting on the neck to come in and it will be roasted maple. I wanted to have the neck built but my Luthier had a pinky accident.

@howardmichael597 жыл бұрын
Anderson...you are so right. I bought mine in black a year ago and thought this is the perfect starting point for a sleeper bass. Bass wood body for light weight and good tone transfer, maple neck and plastic ebonol fret board for its extra bright sound. pickups are standard single coil so with a 18 volt pre amp the sleeper becomes a monster. For more sustain i added a brass nut, 2 more screws to the bridge and strung through the body mod.....Everyone who picks it up says it the best sounding and fun to play bass ever. Im on my 3rd one now and for less than 500 bucks everybody wants one. I even have a brother who brought me everything to build a 5 string with Nate Phillips pickups and preamp. He wants all the trick so you have found the HOLY GRAIL of low cost basses.

Michael howard, it's such a great bass and all the cats that play them in the music stores know it. The problem is that those cats can't get pass the "Squier logo". I'm a professional bassist and all of my basses are Squiers. I consider mine as "tools" and they all get the job done.

My question i see there is three setting on the preamp itself that i can adjust anybody messed with their setting ?
