Which PJ set? (Vintageish Ibanez Content)

Sign in to disble this ad
Right off the bat, no pic no bass:



I purchased that bad boy on Craigslist. The ad said passive EMGs, and without much thought I bought the bass without checking to make sure they were passive EMGs. Oops.

When I got home and took the pickgaurd...I found a 9V battery.

Anyway. I have a Ibanez of about the same vintage with EMGs in it. I want to go passive with this bass.

My initial thought was Delano big-poles...because they're big poles. I have no idea what they sound like, but I want it to look like I have nickels under my strings, damnit!

Then I thought I should ask TB, and weigh my options. I like the sound of my EMGs for the most part, so something in that that realm is cool. Something in another realm is cool, too. I'm not too terribly picky.

Aesthetics play a big part in to what I'm in to, so let's consider that...and as far as tone goes, why not just tell me what you dig about whichever PJ set you recommend.

Thanks!
