The five string is getting Bartolini P2's (or was it BC's) with series/single coil/parallel switching and an Aguilar OBP-3 with a mid-frequency switch and an A/P switch. That's why there's so many holes.

The four string short scale will have a single Seymour Duncan
SCPB-3 quarter-pounder, '51 P-bass style. It'll be passive.
