Here is a short version of the Lowendlobster demoing the NFP Double Jazzplate filterpreamp. This is a direct Jazzbass replacement preamp which will fit most Jazz basses with the Jack output located on the body.
The preamp features the standard Neck Volume and Bridge Volume plus an active/passive switch and Neck Filter and Bridge Filter, both with push-pull switching for boosting the resonant peak.

Who knew there was so much glamour hidden behind that beard. Both 1.0 and 2.0 lobster are great.

Just my two cents as a filter preamp bass player - filter preamps are super cool, but to get the most out of them, you ideally want a *super* bright pickup. The filter chops off high end by sweeping the cutoff point downward as you turn the knob, so a super bright pickup gives the most total range. Traditional passive J bass pickups are fairly warm to begin with so you lose tonal options at the high end of the knob's range. Alembic style low impedance pickups give you every sound the passive ones do, they just give some extra wiry options too. Probably the closest budget option would be the brightest EMG set.

You're not wrong. I wouldn't say necessarily bright pickup. What you would want, ideally, is a flat sounding pickup that can cover the full spectrum of the useable frequency spectrum. It is important that the pickup has its resonant peak outside the filters range. That is what makes ideal to use with a filter preamp. Alembic pickups were designed precisely with that intent and I think that EMG's are a great candidate to use with Filters as perhaps also Alumitones, at least on paper.

I got these filters about a month ago and I love them! I was originally considering this point exactly. I was going after that alembic spectrum of sounds you get with the low impedance pickups, but I don’t think you can throw an active set of EMG’s in with this preamp because the EMG’s have their own solderless wiring that can’t be hooked up with this preamp. I’d love to find a way, or find some good alternatives.

@@swampede0366 other people have used active EMG's with our preamps, so I don't see why it wouldn't be possible in this case. Does that mean that you can't use active EMG'S with no other preamps on the market? It seems highly unlikely.

I bet that would sound good on a Fretless as well. I’m imagining it now. 😊

I wish I would control that filter with expression pedal. I may need different colors on my soloing. I'd prefer that filter as an effect pedal. That would be great.

i have an american fender deluxe will it drop in or do i have to modify the electrical cavity?

@lusithanddevices 2 жыл бұрын

the cavity hole should be identical across all Jazzbasses, so, I'd say yes. Apart from that, where is your Jaclk mounted; on the body?

@@lusithanddevices the jack is on the bottom and it has a four knob plate so that will work fine i just wanted to make sure i didnt have to modify anything.i had the chance to play a bass with this pre amp and its absolutely incredible.the amount of different sounds you can get out of it is awesome.this was a genius idea in my opinion because most other pre amps are the same.i definitely will be ordering one and thank you for making this for us bass players i can see this is a quality pre amp and you really did an awesome job designing it thank you!!!!
