Mec 2band Preamp - Noisy Or Not, Good Or Bad?

Hi guys,

I am looking for 4 pot electronic for my bass. It has 2 noiseless jazz pups with 6,9kO and 7,0kO resistance. One guy sells himself claimed MEC 2 band preamp for 45€ which would directly fit my 4 pot bass. but how is it and is it really MEC original?

I like quiet operation and read about MEC being noisy... But no idea about reliability of those guys... Some say its MEC passive pups, some say its the preamp.

I originally wanted to build vol/vol/tone/tonestyler in passive way, but i was used to actives only and it would save me also some time. Thanks for real experience and identification.
