    East J-Retro mod

    Maybe this will help someone: I wanted black knobs for my J-Retro because the all chrome look was a little too much for me on this particular '74 Jazz Bass. I didn't even want shiny black (like the ones that are available). I really wanted vintage style black plastic ones, but none of them fit...

    J-Retro Deluxe Installation Help

I took it to practice, it sat nicely in the mix, the color that I get in active mode sits well in a mix, and it was a...
