Thats what me thinks too!! however, i do have a humbucker from a VM jag lying about that would be a good fit!!

I agree about the pickup size issue!! def a design flaw! theyre exactly the same size so the bridge one is never gonna sit/work correctly!! It might look good but it ain't gonna work good!!! Ive been scouring the net to see if i could find any replacements/alternatoves that would work in its place but to no avail! I'm considering having a regular soapbar humbucker fitted in its place and just desguise the fact with a little more/larger pickup ring! but i'm not sure that'll look right?? anyhow, heres a couple of pics so you can see for yourelves!

Gonna gig it 2moro nite to see how it does sound, if i manage 2 get a recording there i'll try uploading it

sorry but I aint got any way of recording it! it sounds nice (to me anyway!) just a little disappointing about the bridge pup!

Well ive seen these about on 'tinternet and often wondered how good they might be so i decided to try one!!! Ive opted for the sunbirst finish model! Well it arrived today!!! after giving it the once over to check it out it feels quite solid! very nicely put together, excellent fret work/fret ends, nice finish on the body too! Set it up with a set of flats and nice low action (just how i like it) and plugged it in and had a play (albeit,, through my practice amp) Only gripes - cheap machine heads ( but i plan to put a set of vintage reverse winding ones on eventually) and although the bridge is good, again, i'm planing on changing it for a standard bridge but with the 'screw' saddles Main gripe! - the pickups sound nice but.... the bridge pickup has hopeless alignment with the pole pieces and strings! - to the point where the 'E' string floats above and to the left of the actual pole piece! and similarly the 'G' string is out of line too Its not too bad but it does make the 'E' string quieter! Anyhow, apart from this its a cracking bass and very good value (I don't hold any prejudice with Chinese made basses!!) well worth a punt for its looks alone!! will take a few picies when the missus gets home with the camera! but for reference its one of these:
