    Dear BP I am extrelmely sorry but please don't read my comment as negative, I rate your products very highly and I wasn't at all criticising the passive / active switch. I am aware of the great sound possibilty a passive pickup offer, as I do remember very vividly Jazz & P basses nuances, and I for one am in great expectation to try your 25th Ann. bass at the UK bass show and as pre-announced I will be subsequently placing an order for one of these for sure. So I am happy about your new instruments and very thankful of the time you take to make these and to feed us with your valid info on this forum.

    Peace

    relax I was making a point that the arrival of the bass is days away and we can make informed comments then.

    I learn english in this thread, you guys really put the whole niternetz menatality to shame

    That Big Al is a seriously wild bass, and I for one don't give a hoot about the knobs and switches, I just want it with one more string! Then again, maybe it's just as well that it's only available in a four string, as my bass funds are a tad stretched haha
    bovinehost: Yes, I do agree with that, but if there's nothing wrong then there's nothing wrong.
    Beth: I would compare Bongo to Tommy Lee Jones. Bad a$$ and just hot in a weird way...
    cheezewiz: They should take their lace thongs off and play bass.
