  1. And my original pickups photos from the same period (yes I keep almost everything):
  2. So these are definitely Bossa pickups and these are excellent pickups that I used to try at the time. Here is my original ad from ... 2016:
  3. Pretty sure these are Bossa bass pickups.
  4. Don't start kidding about Mickey Rourke.
  5. And what about your ears?
  6. And Yves Carbonne only needed 2, see previous page. 😉
  7. As boring as the original in a jazz way.
  8. I ate something in Birmingham, but never knew what it was as I couldn't understand a single word of the waitress at the station. Thought I landed in Russia. 🤦🏻‍♂️
  9. And Yves only needed two. 😎
  10. Joe Jackson response to this is quite clear: "No requests, please!"
  11. Almost, it's the magnetic truss rod cover, so yes under that is a MusicMan like wheel for the truss rod.
  12. Yes, they make their own pickups.
  13. That said Ernest Tibbs is a hell of a player, I saw him live a few times with Protocol, and when Simon Phillips starts to become tricky, he closes his eyes and starts counting, you can see it on his face...
  14. Nope, as strange as it may seem, it's Steve Lukather.
  15. That's what I have on my Le Fay Remington Steele 6 RHT CC CAP Big Block, that's quite a name, I know... 😂
  16. I like that simple but effective look. Congratulations @anzoid !
  17. This one isn't pointless.
  18. "The most important thing I learned is that no matter what the instrument is, it is first and foremost acoustic. If an instrument sounds weak acoustically, adding pick-ups will just amplify its shortcomings. Throughout my career, I have tried to apply this principal to everything I build. By experimenting with different types and combinations of wood, I seek to get the best possible tone from an instrument." - M.Tobias
  19. Yes, but Wal Bass Pro go quite high too especially the E version. 😉
  20. I've been a fretless sixer player since the 90's... So definitely my weapon of choice for many reasons, think Anthony Jackson and Alain Caron.
  21. Christoph also makes a well known Wal-like multi coils pickup (see W-Bucker here: https://hotwire-bass.de/hotwire-pickups) and his pickups also equip some high end Maruszczyk basses.
  22. The ATK pickup won't do it either. In this case, ask a pickups builder to make one for you. Someone like Chistoph Dolf at BassCulture has built me some specific pickups with the exact specifications I was asking. And he's not a greedy person at all. Worth asking him: [email protected]
  23. Simply buy this: https://www.sims.guitars/sims-bass-shop/super-quad-pickup-classic-4
