I'm thinking not. But it's pointless asking us - why not ask them?

The problem with that is that EMG has their little Quick-connect system for their pickups, so you'd have to probably find a way to modify that in order to get it to work with the preamp. I don't see why Fodera wouldn't sell you one, but you'd have to ask first.

I was considering this as well, except with some 7-string barts for the bass I'm building.

Let me know if they'll sell it to me.

I wonder if JP would sell me his custom Winters preamp also....

...hmm...

He's said he'll sell the Winters pre-before. I don't remember the bass prices, but something like $180 for onboard, and a little over $200 in a box. I think, I'm not sure...

Hmm, I think I'm going to get one in the future.

His preamps are so effing versatile.

Not only does he sell it, but he sells it onboard, pedal, or I think even rack.
