The latest one I tried is the BOSS ac adapter that works with all their pedals and has the exact same specs as yours.

If I buy yours and it still hums can I return it?


Thanks

I have one of the earlier Sadowsky external pre-amps which I enjoy using with my passive, non-Sadowksy basses.  Feeding it batteries gets old after a while. I have tried using various AC Adapters with it - all of them within the range of specification for a 9V battery replacement - and all introduce a loud hum.  Any suggestions?

I recently installed the drop tuner on my Sadowsky. I have them on some of my other basses so it's not a new concept to me.

No, it's not the same as having a 5-string but it's close enough for the kind of stuff I do.

I've started using it more and more for any key where "D" is a major component - not just the obvious when "D" is the "1".

If I bypass the VTC, does the battery still drain as long as the cable is plugged in?

Like someone inferred, this will depend on how you like your tone. I don't leave mine on one setting because I like to tune in the room  and I also play several formats - one band might want me to play old school deep and thick and another might want me slap happy and bright.
