spyder Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Hi guys. I might want to put an active EMG pickup and preamp back into my Warrior bass. I want to use two switches on the pickups to turn them on and off instead of a blend pot. One switch per pickup. Should I use the switch to cut the battery power to the pickup or cut the audio output feed. The bass has holes for the switches already cut. This is why I want to try this arrangement. Can anyone help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Cut the output signal, there will still be a signal (albeit minuscule) if you just cut power to the internal pre in the pickup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect. Many thanks for your quick response. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
