Frequently Asked Questions

The active mode boosts the signal and adds a subtle EQ curve, while passive offers a more vintage, transparent sound – giving you flexibility for different recording or performance scenarios.
The singlecoils provide a more articulate and detailed tone with a pronounced vintage character; they lack the thick, compressed sound of a humbucker, but offer greater clarity and dynamic response.
While technically playable by anyone, the longer scale length and increased complexity of a 6-string bass make it more suited to experienced players comfortable with extended range instruments.
