Passive corvette? If it is active you may want to look into upgrading the electronics first.

a number of company have harnesses that would work in the hole a;lready in the bass. all you would have to do is solder the PUP leads to the correct points and add a battery

I'm switching out my MEC's for Basslines this weekend hopefully. From everything I've read, my ss2 is about to become a rabid dog when I put those things in.
