My brother is a good bass player, recently bought a bass with active pups- he said he thought they were better for basses than passive ones, but we were out eating dinner with my father at the time, and we didn't want to bore him talkin' about it. So I'll take the question to YOU guys. Why would active pups be better for bass?

"I'd like to give Iraq a little lesson on Democracy. because we (America) know what we're doing. After 100 years of Democracy, you have to let your slaves vote. After 150 years, you have to let your women vote. But at the beginning of Democracy, a little genocide and ethnic cleansing is perfectly okay, which is what's going on right now" -Kurt Vonnegut appearing on "The Daily Show"

I don't know but THUNDERGUTS' bass has an active preamp and I think it also has active pickups and it sounds way better than the one he has with passive stuff.

maybe he'll see this thread and respond (he can probably tell you better then I can)
