View post (active or passive pickups)
View thread
I'm buying a new guitar, and i would like to have a little heavier distortion. i'm thinking about guitar with humbucker pickups, but not sure if i should use active or passive one? i never try to play a guitar with active, so how much is sound heavier. i like to play maiden and stuff with some 'cleaner' sound, so i think that better solution is passive one. any advice?
