Wow! I put the Bass Lines active EQ Jazz bass pickups on my 75 reissue Jazz bass. The pickups are active with 2 switches on each pickup. The 1st changes the high end roll off. The 2nd gives you a bass boost of about 5 db. I was boosting the top and bottom with the EQ on my amp, it was fat but not very clear. After installing the Bass Lines I decided to try the amp flat and make whatever adjustments were needed. I'm still running it flat. I use the bass boost on the pickups. The sound is deep but with great presence, the highs are wide open, very clear. Turning on the treble EQ switch rolls the highs off for a more vintage sound. If that wasn't enough they're dead quiet even when using 1 pickup. Combined with the Badass bridge this bass is killer. And I can put all the stock parts back on without any damage to the bass.
