The funny thing is.... according to Sterling and Music Man say that the pickup itself is "passive" and that the only "active" part of the circuit is the cut/boost tone controls.

That said... our bass player can be very inconsistent with his input/output and I'm constantly having to tweak his channel on the board.... so this year I added a direct box directly after his bass and sent the pass through to the input of the amp. His tone shaping on the amp changes what comes out of his cab behind him, but I just take his clean direct bass and play that through the PA because it's cleaner and punches better.

These are pretty good... I bought a few of these for the 4-cable method from my amp. The right angle connectors are great from the side of the pedalboard back to the amp.

Earlier today it was a Markbass 250 Watt Blackline for a pretty good price if you're into that. I have a MarkBass Blackline combo that's pretty nice.

And you, too, can have mediocre sound with unicorn vomit lighting!

I like that. . .wonder why they didn't go with black pickups though, seems like it would have matched better with the chrome hardware and black knobs. Maybe that's why it's $1k off. . .

Because that would look "too gibby".... but it's an easy $5 change.

D’Angelico has to be making guitars just for Musician’s Friend to dump. They just have too much stuff on this list for it to be incompetence.

If you weren't down with the Walnut.... apparently they have some at that price that are "Desert Sand"

Isn’t that the shade of Mary Kay Cadillacs?
