You have to change your approach to tone when using active pickups. I wasn't a fan when I tried them in my jackson and certainly didn't like how they sounded in a strat style guitar but I've heard other players use them with great results. You have to change your approach to tone when using them, I've found. I could see myself liking them on a bass, though, but that's not my main instrument nor is it a tone zone I've really explored.
