Ok, yesterday i played this awsome instrument, it feelt realy good. The neck is perfect, frets, sound, appearance... As you know this bass has no bridge pup. I would realy want to own this bass, but I want to put in a jazz bass pup in the bridge position. Did anybody do this? Or something similar? And any tips for this would be great. Cheers!

The low B string has amazing definition, the string spacing is very narrow (I love that), its passive and very cheap so I wouldnt cry if it got stolen/broken, and has a tone we all love in the bands I play with. I have tried a few other Rockbass models (such as the 5 string corvette active) and I gotta say I dont like them much, specially the active ones. Not that they are bad basses for their price but the 5 string streamer model has much better tone IMHO.[/quote] I tried a few rock basses, they were quite good but you should try out some spector basses that have the similar prices. Of course if you want to buy a spector. But I would go for the rock bass.

Can you hook up a pre-amp on a passive pickup? making it active...
