Does the Polish Love like active basses?

Sign in to disble this ad
The current availability of Polish Love O/D's in the classifieds has triggered a GAS attack, but I'd hate to find out after the fact that it doesn't want to play nice with an active bass. Someone here must know what the pedal is like with actives, and I'd appreciate any info on this...

BTW - I did a number of searches before posting this...if there's a similar thread already, I couldn't find it.

I run an EBMM SR5 through my PL and haven't had a problem with it. It's my go-to pedal for lighter/boosted OD. The amount of these pedals in the classifieds is startling to say the least. I love mine, and can't ever say that I'd sell it.

Think there's a reason there's a sudden glut of pedals for sale or is it just the general "mneh, time for a new sound" ADD?

Looking at the schem there's no reason why it shouldn't work well.

I mentioned that in a different thread a few days ago, prompting RCCollins to suggest...
