issue with barcus berry pickup bridge?
Hi,
I've been trying to find ways to amplify my Kay and its getting frustrating. It's an old M1 that came with a Barcus Berry Bridge system already installed. I got a fishman BII and made sure theres a fresh battery in it. I get lots of hum but no real signal. To make matters more confusing, if i plug the bass into a Digitech BP80 I get signal-I can play the AUB all day amplified through the digitech if i want to use an effect or amp model... the digitech is a multi-effects unit with modeling amps in it-but ive always read that a buffer preamp was best so i could play something that really sounded like the upright when i played amplified. I have never felt comfortable playing upright with other musicians and can get plenty of volume just to practice without an amp so never tried to work this stuff out...but id like to jam with a drummer and am not sure what the issue could be. I think its the ancient pickup system but im new to amplified upright... Anyone have any ideas? Dave |
