Whats a decent easily available bass

It might have done at one point but the current range it has passives - serial number dates this one as 2002 so they've been a bit cheeky selling it as B-stock I think, it in great condition though

Looking back the photos did have a "pre-loved" tag on it so I guess I cant be mad about the b stock.

Pretty sure that the SR700 had active Bartolini pickups

Bartolini MK1 soapbar pickups - as fitted to some mid-price bass guitars - are passive. Only the EQ section of the controls is active.

If you want top end clank stick some Pro Steels on it
