Hi All,
I have decided to buy a Warwick Corvette Standard in Ash. However, I'm not sure what advantage there will be tonally between having a passive pickup model with passive electronics or the passive pickups with the selectable active/passive electronics. My other basses are a Fender MIA 75 jazz and a Musicman Stingray. Both very different tonally but both great. I don't want to get the passive Corvette if its going to be dull, flat and lifeless but then I don't want to get the Active/Passive model if its going to be bright and tiny or the active option not really being a benifit.
Is it worth paying extra and going for the selectable active/passive model or is it not much advantage?
Any advice really appreciated.
