I've gone back to using a passive bass, I was always fiddling with the eq settings on my 3 band. Now I just have thud to bite... normally called a tone control. Keep it simple, Schecter Ultra Spitfire Bass with EMG hz pickups.
Looking good. BB3000... You just need to pick one up to know it's at the top of tree for quality. By far the best built bass I have ever owned.
Is the neck on your bass very shallow, mine was super slim but wide.
