Radial Bassbone vs Sadowsky SBP-1? For live and recording. Pros and Cons?

... I'd get a SBP 2 preamp and a separate DI tbh. I have both a Radial Bassbone Tonebone V1 and a couple of the Sadowsky SBP 2 preamps (and a fair few DI's). The build quality of the SBP 2 is superb, I didn't rate the SBP 1 as much build quality wise tbh. Also means you can mix and match your DI's if you wanted to. The tone you can get on the Sadowsky is great and as said above very simple in it's operation.

Anyone tried both? I play mainly passive basses so I'm looking for a more 'active' sound for some tracks (esp slap) as well as a cracking but affordable DI pedal. 

 

I have (and until recently used for everything) a Tonebone OD (basically a Tonebone with a drive pedal attached). 

 

The EQ section is 'cut only', so there's no EQ boost at all. I'd say it probably isn't going to give you the 'active' tone it sounds like you're looking for.
