Clear sound, good sound shaping

maschmann 21.02.2011

I've bought the electronics as a replacement for my Warwick $$5's MEC default electronics and also to take off the "mid-edge" this bass has per default. The sound lost some of the deep mids, Warwicks tend to have and gained some clarity.
For the EQ capabilities, I can only say that everything each knob does eaxctly as you might expect - but in every case it's not annoying. If you increase or decrease the frequency level, it always feels musical. I don't know if you've had this with other electronics but with the default MEC, the higher frequenzies tend to get really sharp. no such thing with the Glockenklang ;-)
Installation is quite easy if you're familiar with electronics. You'll need to solder the connections to your pickups and the battery, that's all.

Top quality !

Le Bassman ! 28.05.2017

Fantastic item ! Sound is superb with my Bartolini pickups !
I can get a nice Jaco sound in passive mode and switch to a superb slap sound in active mode in a flash ! The sound is crystal clear with no noise whatsoever ! Buy it if you want quality, it is well worth the money ! Fiiting the kit was a bit fiddly but it comes with clear instructions, so I managed to do it myself. Me very happy Bassman now !

High-end onboard bass preamo with fair price and hi-fi sound

androniksupersonik 25.01.2021

Well i bought it for project bass of mine (Ibanez SR1000 from '98). It is a preamp known to sound very true and hi-fi and I thought that could be just what I want and need... and it turns out I did not like the sound (subjectively) it was too clear and studio kind produced. Mind you, I am playing passive Jazz basses mostly so... just a thought (I was going for something like Ken Smith sound with this mod but got the opposite).
Otherwise product is fully functional and well made, very very low noise which I liked, just sound did not worked out for me..
All that being said it would be hard not to recommend Glock preamp to anyone looking for clear sound.

Really upgrades a bass

LaaToo 24.06.2019

Installed these to a Fender Am Delux Jazz Bass V (also replaced the PUs at the same time). The result: superb sound, both in active and passive mode, very transparent. A real upgrade also in terms of usability: setting the sound is not at all fiddly anymore, have to rely less on the amps (just leave them more or less flat).
One thing I missed a bit: pre-soldered wire ends could have made the installation easier (not a big deal, though).

Amazing preamp

Anonymous 24.09.2015

This is a fantastic preamp! It doesen't colour the tone or make the bass sound active. It's organic and dead quiet in all positions. I have nothing bad to say, other than that the stacked pot is unusually thin. This may cause some problems finding a knob that'll actually fit.

Excellent Un-Coloured Sound

Anonymous 13.11.2014

Can't fault the performance and sound quality. Struggled a bit with installation (wiring/soldering) so sent to a guitar electrics tech who said it 'fought him all the way'!

Very good *****

Bryton 13.05.2022

I bought this because it is easy to install and fair price. Even if you are not handy with soldering you'll be able to install. Soundwise I'm supprised. It is very pleasent and super clean. My bass finally become alive. The wires should be thicker and less fragile IMO . Overall I'm happy with the product.

Just amazing

FunkyCss 28.08.2023

I have seen many preamps, this was for a custom Stingray project! Worked as I have expected, has very clear tone and works so well with humbucker pickups! Just an amazing product, I had a good image for this company from a Human Base Bass that I have bought in the past and had one of them. Simply amazing
