I'm the proud owner of two Fortress Flashbacks, one with the standard Warwick bridge and another with the 2Tek bridge.
Does anyone know anything about the manufacturing history? there are some significant differences between these two basses (which are both awesome, by the way). These...
Here we go guys, a little 'how to' guide on fitting a preamp followed by the review.
How to fit a preamp
1. Find yourself a competent mate (in my case, Andy) who won't end up soldering the preamp to his hands instead of the bass.......like i would (aint we a pretty couple!?)
2...
Can anyone reccomend cases that fit Fortress Bass? It's a larger than standard size with that extended top horn. I would be particularly interested in the "hard foam" lightweight cases such as the ones by Rockcase and Kinsman but would be interested in more professional abs or flightcases too. I...

Hi
I've got a 91 Fortress one which has started crackling when adjusting the volume. i've sprayed the pot with no improvement. The active setting is very noisy aswell. Any ideas ?:((

I own a '94 Fortress and the neck shape is...
