Max, never fear. My Streamer LX has active pickups and active preamp, and all three of my Fuzzhugger pedals work just fine.

That said, my Corvette $$ (passive pickups, active preamp) gets different results from the same pedals. Not better, different.

All of my worries have been taken care of, its just a choice of what I am going to get. It is either going to be a arc flash or Algal Bloom. I am leaning heavy on getting the arc flash but now I am leaning more towards getting more glitchy wolf computer esc tones out of this box.

Trust me I have been drooling on fuzzhugger.com for a solid week now.

I heard the AB plays well with active basses.

true

yes / no


its a bit of both. I definitely have a "sweet spot" setting, and maybe a secondary, but I still like the arc flash on bass better. i should probably do a demo, actually...

Edit:

DEMO TIME :joy:
i cut the treble, and boosted the bass all the way on the EQ. mids at about... 3 o'clock i think.

I'm more than happy with my Phantom Octave equipped Jaguar bass. Thing is, as I recall the Phantom Octave doesn't care much for active pickups. I quickly learned that I prefer passive pickups, so I bought a set of passives and used the knobs and switches and cavities in my bass to fit in the fuzz circuit, route it to a battery, and solder in a volume after the effect and a tone between the pickup and the effect. There's a video where I talk way too much about it... You might not want to build it into your bass anyway...

I have more FuzzHugger products than Hanes products, largely because Tom is all over customer satisfaction and entirely unafraid of an unconventional request. Hell, I think he loves a "challenge". Email him! He'll figure out exactly what you want, and build it if he doesn't have it already!
EH Big Muff Pi, Zvex Mastotron, ProCo Rat, Devi Ever Spectacular Aenima, Fuzzhugger/Mellowtone Wolf Computer, ILF Arc Flash, AlgRoar (Custom), Phantom Octave, MXR Blue Box, Phase 90, Carbon Copy Delay, El Grande Bass Fuzz, Radial Tonebone Plexitube, Ohnoho Chk Chk Boom, Mojo Hand Sugar Baby

Need more fuzz!
