Nice. Are they the same pickups that were in the Roscoe Beck model? Is there scope for coil serial/parallel shenanigans? It would be a cool platform to really mod the crap out of.

They’re remarkably similar.

 

Its a selector between all combinations of pickups.

 

Loved my RBv

Hadn't realised how gray it was...thought it was black. Looks absolutely fabulous!

Yeah - like a Matt/stealth so can look very grey or black as night. 

Still need to tweak the nut - Can’t find the nut files.

 

In all honesty, it’s a winner with this neck - but the setting I really like on it is something the Bongo does and I have a sentimental link to that bass…in all likelihood this will go up for sale.

I have a Two Tone Satin Sunburst MK 2' M. P. J & the pickups are nothing like the "Bill Lawrence" Custom Designed Roscoe Beck Bass One's.... the  M. P. J was manufactured in China' all of it & it has a Modern Scooped Tone... In fact that's its Let Down'... Aside from being a Heavy instrument.
