CHRISDABASS Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Hi Both my NYC and Metro Sadowsky basses have sadowsky's own Hum canceling pickups! They sound great but both basses sound very similar which leads to the Metro not being played as much as i'd like.......... so im thinking about putting some Wizard 84's (single coils) in the Metro to see if they give that bass a more old school vibe! Has anyone had any experience with 84's in an active bass? any thoughts or opinions welcome cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) You mean 64's then. I love mine in the Corvette. Gives out an old school Fender vibe, even when the Corvette is anything but Fender originally! Much more interesting sounding than the MEC it had previsouly. I also have East u-retro with them, works fine together Ask Andy about this, what sound you want, he'll guide you towards the best suited pickups.
