With the real Bartolini's these will work:

or

Not sure about other companies.

I've talked to the people at Nordstrand before and they are wonderful people, but I have no experience with their pickups.

The stock six string size is Bartolini P4 (4.675*1.27). Since they already have the P2 case (MK-1 size), they should be able to make a six string version in that case, however it will be a custom order.

Another consideration is string spacing on a custom order since they use jazz-type pole pieces and not blades like the barts.
