Active vs. Passive

[Richard G]

I perefer passive, personally. Active basses that I've played have a too.. articulated tone. It's as if each note is it's own individual entity, while with a passive bass, the notes work together a bit better and seem more like a part of a song as opposed to each being their own individual entity and this allows them to groove a lot better.

IMO, IME, etc, of course.

WOW nicely put!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you have way too much free time on you hands!(lol)

I do. It's not a good thing, but certainly allows me to pursue one of my favorite hobbies: starting trouble!

when making an ironic thread attempting to encourage the usage of the search function, it's extra irony to put it in the wrong forum.

See...John...here's your problem: you're assuming, that just because I've been around here for a hundred years, that I actually pay attention to stuff. You'd *think* I'd know the rules, but that's where you run astray...I came around before there *were* any rules, and that, by the unwritten "grandfather clause", exempts me from having to read them.

Okay...so you know I'm just kidding. Thanks for setting me straight.

I thought it would be better to resurrect an old thread than to start a new one. Any objections I will start a new one.

With that said after having my Fender for several months I am finding at times I am liking passive more than active which is messed up considering what I paid for her. Yes passive is just a switch away, but if I am this much in passive mode, wondering if I should have gone passive to begin with.

Anyone else relates to this?
