Frequently Asked Questions
The active EQ provides significantly more tonal shaping options with boost/cut across bass, mid, and treble frequencies, whereas passive only offers a simple roll-off.
It dramatically reduces hum compared to traditional Jazz Bass pickups, but it’s not entirely silent – just a significant improvement, especially in higher gain situations.
The HiMass bridge provides a more direct transfer of string vibration, resulting in improved note clarity and a slightly more rigid feel, enhancing sustain and reducing unwanted resonance.
