The main difference between the two is that active bass guitars require a battery as they have a built-in preamp that you can use to boost or cut the signal. Passive bass guitars don't require a battery, you just plug it in.

The tuners and pots feel a bit cheap, and likely could use an upgrade, but they were overall non-offensive as they didn't really interfere with the tuning stability or tone shaping. That's more me being picky, but still worth noting for those who may want to get this guitar and just spend a few bucks on modifications.

MXR has included a true bypass switch and even ships these pedals with a power supply. When it comes to features related to the effect itself, the most you get is the manual control of the flanger.

EMG Blues Lead Tones EMG pickups may not offer the full spectrum of potential blues tones that passive humbuckers or single coils can offer. They do lack some tonal traits that some players would want available from their guitar.

with a set of Duncans, it was an amazing guitar. But to be fair, as cheap stock pickups go, they weren't horrible. The neck in particular was pretty cool, kind of a Gibson 490 with a slightly cocked wah thing going on. They were certainly better than a lot of the pickups included stock at that price point.

EMG pickups lack definition for high gain tones/sound muddy. Granted, there's nothing wrong with passive pickups (I prefer them myself), but EMGs definitely do not have an issue staying clear and punchy for high gain tones. Just listen to the Killswitch Engage albums recorded with EMGs.

Vox amps are also made with pretty thick plywood for the cabinets which is heavier than the wood that old fender cabs were made of. The heaviest part of a speaker is the magnet, and whatever speaker is in your AC15 is going to have a much heavier magnet than your Fender.

A quick explanation is that a passive cable does not draw power from the switches, while active ones do. This is due to signal strength. These type of cables need a signal boost when they get to a certain length. In short, 5m or less are passive cables, over this require the cable to be active.

Active pickups have a hotter (louder) output than passive pickups. There is less signal loss on the way to the bass amp. Active pickups tend to be bright, clear and snappy sounding. Active pickups use smaller magnets and pickup less external noise and interference.

A quiet, yet discernible tactile bump. The original Romer-G profile, Romer-G Tactile offers minimal feedback through actuation to ensure confidence and precision in the actuation moment—without being too loud or distracting. Tactile switches are ideal for competitive and FPS gaming.

Anyway. The only Orange amp that is Class A is the AD5. Class A doesn't mean that it's better, it's just a different way of operation. They do sound different, but it's quite marginal.

Re: Let's talk about Okoume as a Tonewood... It sounds about as good as any other of my guitars (body is Black Limba). Super lightweight, very dynamic tone. A tiny bit on the bright side, but in a good way. And you can just FEEL that bass even when played unplugged.

Skar is good stuff, but their subwoofers are more about raw loud than high articulation. Then again, the enclosure you put whatever sub you get in will determine the response more than the subwoofer itself. a speaker can only play as well as its environment.
