I need help finding a P pickup

[ampegfuzz]

I am building a warmoth bass, ash body with maple on maple neck, and want to find a pick up that soulds just like the one in my friends 83' squier jv p-bass. Any suggestions, i want a pickup with lots of bite and punch with good lows. It had a duncan quarter pound and i think it sucks. price is no object.

Thanks

I agree i really disliked the quarterpounder. instantly regretted getting it. i have heard good things about the duncan antiquity series and obviously nordstrands.

My fave is the stock 10k Lindy Fralin. It does just what you want.

I dropped a Fender Original '62 P Pickup in my MIM P-Bass and I could not believe how much fatter and thumpy it made my bass sound. I got the pickup from a friend who sold it to me and installed it for $ 25.00. I am happy !
