Hey nice review! I think I want to try the Blues Pro too! If you might you be able to a/b them with regular single coils and a humbucker guitar that would be very excellent!!

Nice clip, funkyblues! What chip do some of you Blueboy owners prefer? THe mentioned above or the lm1458 or the jrc4558D or P? Has anyone else a/b's the BP and the BB?

Mine came with the standard 4558 which sounded great - very TSish. I swapped it out in favor of the LM833 and like it much better - still smooth, but less compressed and a different mid emphasis. I've got a TL072 and a LM1458 to try as well - just haven't gotten around to it yet...
Hi, fuzzface. I just did the A/B with a guitar instead of my Stick. To repeat, I have a B.C. Rich NJ strat (circa 1985) with a double-coil pickup (bridge) and two singles (middle and neck). Unfortunately I no longer have a guitar amp, as I sold it after I switched to playing the Stick. My Stick amp is a super-clean, full-range, flat-response bass amp made by Phil Jones. The Stick sounds spectacular through this amp, but the guitar does not. It sounds sterile and dull when clean. So YMMV. Ill also repeat that my Blue Boy has the 1458 IC, which Michael at MI Audio has decided is his favorite. I have not experimented with other chips. Nor do I recall exactly how I set the internal trims. I *think* the character is at 0 percent and the brightness and voicing both around 50.Originally posted by fuzzface
