    Would adding a P pup to stingray allow it to be in the standard position?

    Would adding a P pup to stingray allow it to be in the standard position?

    I've been wanting to add a P bass pup to my stingray for a while now, but with no p bass to measure pup placement i cant tell if i will have to put the pup closer to the neck or not. All i really want to know is if the bottom half of the p will collide with the top coil or not.

    Drop D on a 5 string

    Drop D on a 5 string

    HI. I have a 5 string, and don't find myself using the B string all that much except when play a song in D, and even then it is much more bothersome than just having a D string!
