Kinal MK-5 fretless bass

[AmoahsDrum]

Hey Y'all,

Unfortunately, I have to replace the electronics in my 2001 Kinal MK-5 fretless 5 string bass (don't ask, just trying to make lemons 2 lemonade...). I have always loved the 'acoustic' sound I get when practicing without an amp. So, I am searching for pickups that will get me as close as I can to the natural sound I get playing unamplified. I had 2 active Basslines Jazz pickups and a preamp in it. Please advise. Thanks! Peace and blessings...

Not the cheapest option but a piezo bridge is probably top of the list, can blend it with your normal pickups but you'll need a buffer preamp too. Could be quite costly if you need to replace the original electronics at the same time!

Thanks! I think I'm going to have to do it in phases, pickups first then the piezo. Peace...
