Definatly get a bass that has either the Bartolini or Nordstand pickups. You won't regret it. |

You won't regret it. | Strangely enough I owned two SR 500`s and a SR 700, both with the Bart`s and I prefer the pickups/active circut on the 2012 model SR300 that I own. However I would love to get my hands on the SR 1200 with the Norstrands.
