Let's see your custom made or high end bass with passive electronics.

I don't have one at the moment, but so far this one is good enough for me:

I have a new 2008 4003 -- awesome bass! Mine's a JG finish, however.

High end and passive, GREAT sounding bass. (It's an early '80s BC Rich Eagle neck-through, in case you're wondering)

My Emerald Green Dingwall Prima NVT Villex-loaded

More to follow very soon

My Custom Shop '59 P-Bass (picture courtesy of Sweetwater, emailed to me before they shipped it):

I got this bass last month and it's now my new #1. Perfect tone and playability.

I don't know about "high end", but here's my new custom Valenti:

 

[Zooberwerx]

Yep, its passive.

That's the new 3-band EQ like the cat from Branson Missouri has?

Have you given your opinions/review on those pups yet over in the pups and electronics forum?

 

[TerenceSharp]

The definition of simplicity?

 

[namraj]

Yep, its passive.

and yet still 4 knobs and a switch, what do they all do?

Here's my Birdsong Cortobass. Well, it will be a Cortobass once it's done. Passive pickups with a Varitone switch.

Baffling, isn't it? Well, here goes: neck volume / bridge volume / neck pup mid roll-off / bridge pup treble roll-off.

The switch is parallel / single / series for the MM pup. I think it also lights up the Christmas tree on the White House lawn.

Hi bassrique

Yes, I have given a review in the review forum and a second review is on the way very soon. Last night I was rehearsing with it along with my FRB Z3 Dingwall

It's got an Audere in it now, but my Curbow Z-Jazz was originally built passive (Volume/Blend/Tone/Tone):

Sorry... I'm having trouble seeing anything but that gorgeous bassman...

Seriously that's one HOT P you've got there!

Here's my passive Ric, it's pretty high end I guess, about as much as my budget will allow me.
