Would Roscoe do a different pickup configuration like a Bart P/J in one of the models? Or are HB type pickups the only ones?
I don't think I've ever seen a pic of any other pickup type configuration before. |

However, our stock (not the CB's) pickups are quad coils, and if you're competent with a soldering iron and reading schematics, you can actually wire them up to be P or J style pickup in function, if not in appearance.

And if we're not so handy with a soldering iron and reading schematics, would/could this be a factory option? Perhaps with a toggle switch that would do that? |

Unless, of course, you wouldn't want the Barts. But that's just not right.
Although, I must say that Greg's personal fretless (with whatever he has in it) sounds absolutely fantastic. |

Anyway, how would someone find this schematic?
