    G&L guys, how do you like the passive tone?

    How's the passive mode tone? Does it sound as good as a passive classic Fender P or J, or do you pretty much need the pre-amp engaged to get the really good sounds out of it?

    Opinion wanted on this bass

    8 stringer question...

    P-style pickup in the bridge?

    What do you guys think about puting a p-style pickup in the bridge instead of the usual J in the bridge? The other pickup in the bass would be a p in the usual spot. So the bass would be a dual P. Thoughts?
