Re: Stickup or ACTV2
I've got the StickUp and R-Block. I prefer the StickUP. stickyfingers wrote: There are a certain few here that like to object to my opinions so here it goes. I have some high end Basses that are passive/ active so I'm familiar with such. That being said I know nothing about these stickups so I can't compare. I'm sure there will be some more knowledgeables here who can really explain.

In reference to the original post and Geo’s question was in regards to the pickup choice to a SB8.

Re: Stickup or ACTV2
The only current option for the SB8 is the ACTV-2. The pole pieces on a Stickup do not line up with the 8-string spacing on a Stickup. Sorry for any confusion.
