Hey now,

Just mulling through some pickup ideas for a frankenbass I'm putting together. The bass in question is Schecter Elite 5. The spacing is really narrow like 60.3 mm or something like that.

Brian at BBG is checking on a Nordie option but I just came across the Sadowsky Soapbars. Are these similar to the EMG's and Barts that have the solid coils/bars and can handle a range of string spacings?

Blessings
Michael

They have blade magnets instead of polepieces, yes they handle various spacings.
