    I'm about to change the stock p-style pickup in my bass, and I was wondering what some other opinions were on the passive EMG-HZ against a Seymour Duncan Basslines pickup? Personally, I favor the passive EMG-HZ, but I'm curious to know what other options I might have.

    All I can tell you is that the 1/4lb PUP in my P-bass kicks serious bootay. Don't know anything about passive EMG's though.

    Before someone else finds this and decides to chastise you on the search function, there are a lot of threads here that have reviews and details on these pickups. Personally I'd check out the 1/4 lb basslines over the regular basslines. Do a little searching and you'll find what your looking for.
