I have the black finish with maple fretboard. The pickups are about 1.5" by 3.5". I can get a more exact measurement when I get home. I will definitely check out the 6RT and 6RC. Thanks again, I am new to playing bass and need all the help I can get.

Thanks for the response. Another friend also recommended Bartolini's. I have a few more questions. I noticed they have single coils and double coils. I was wondering which I should get since the 004 can switch between active and passive. I'm thinking single coil since I like the P-Bass...

I have a Schecter 004 that I bought a few months ago. I love the look of this bass but only like the sound. I was wondering if anyone has changed the pickups in this bass and if so with what? I pretty much only play in passive mode. I play through a GK Backline 210. Any advice?

I also like playbassnow.com It has video lessons which are pretty good. I definitely like studybass the best as I am brand new to bass and like how it goes through a lot of theory.

Thanks for the all the input. I have played a new MIM P at guitar center but not the 51. I like the wider neck as I don't have small hands and like wider string spacing. I'm pretty set on trading unless I play his and for some reason just hate it. Thanks again.

I have a friend who is offering to trade me his '51 reissue for my Schecter 004. I am definitely leaning towards doing it but just wanted some counsel from those far smarter than me. I have been GASing for a '51 reissue for a looooong time. Do you think I'd be making a bad decision to trade...

I guess I'm the only one who disagrees. My first bass was a piece of junk. Horrible sound, horrible quality. But it was my first bass and I regret selling it everytime I think about. I know if I still had it, it would never get played but as you said I was "attached to it." So I guess if...

Nicely done!! The tele headstock is by far my favorite. Great looking bass.

Sign me up. I just bought a backline 210 last Monday (01/05/09). I play a Schecter 004 Diamond Series through it, and love every second. I used to play bass in high school, and ended up having to sell everything because I needed the money. I recently decided to get back into it and thought...

I just bought Schecter 004 on Monday (01/05/09). I used to play bass in high school, and decided recently to start playing again.

I haven't wasted any money on basses yet, but I did buy an American Standard Telecaster that sounded horrible. I didn't know much about guitars when I bought it, but thought hey it's an American Standard it has to be good. How wrong I was. No matter what I did the intonation was off. I just...
