Frequently Asked Questions
Switching to passive mode delivers a more vintage, raw tone, while active mode utilizes the Heritage-3 electronics for more shaping possibilities.
The 'C' profile is generally comfortable, but some players with very large hands might find it slightly snug – it's a fairly standard, medium-sized neck.
The pickup blend is surprisingly smooth and effective, offering a wider range of tonal options than many basses in this category – it's a real highlight.
