Thanks. Passive EMGs it is!

I recently picked up a sadowsky metroexpress 4 and I'm looking to upgrade with a set of EMG. Now, the question is: can this be done? If so, should it be active or passive EMGs pickups to work with the existing sadowsky preamp? As I really only require the pickups, it will be a shame to discard of the EQ that all EMG pickups come with.

Are there any bridges that are a direct fit on a sadowsky metroexpress? Looking to get a black finish. Yes, I know, Warwick are selling them, but it's a 12 week wait and slightly overpriced IMO

Maybe it does, I'm honestly not sure?

In a nutshell, what is the difference between the metro express EQ compared to the U.S. Version? Is it just the VTC option?

I purchased 2 from thomann that were so shockingly bad I had to return both of them. I think it's basically your luck with what you end up with on the first batch.

At £170 I know it won't be great but could be good for a mess around bass.

I'm currently looking at the various headless bass options under £200, but not sure if to order? Yes, I know AliExpress can be hi risk and obviously at that price the bass certainly won't be Fodera quality 😉 Anyone have any good or bad experiences ordering from here?

Thing is, the bello model with EMGs and preamp came in at the same price as the standard version. Wish they switched them all to EMGs with a more straight forward preamp.

Surprised there is still no videos of the new line of basses or namm footage?

GuitarGuitar confirmed there are no further plans to stock this brand. Must be just a rest run to guage appetite

Will there be a 4?
