3 pickup basses!

[ric4682]

The title says it all! Does anyone out there have any 3 (or more) pickup basses? I always found these to be interesting basses. Modded or stock!

The Black bass at the end is a Fender Urge with J-P-J configuration.

Sadly, this isn't real.

But this is.

Also, a TBer has made a few three-pickup basses shaped like oversized Strats - check those out in the luthier's corner.

I don't have one, but the Gibson Grabber 3 has a three pickup configuration.

Clover Avenger looks nice with the unevenly spaced pickups.

I'd love a Vista Sonic.

The ORIGINAL Burns Bison guitar had 4 pickups - I played one in Glasgow in 1962. The bass had pickups that were very similar, only being 4-pole.

This one might not count since they're basically wired like one big pickup, but...

Back to three. Here's a signature ESP.

And if you'd like each pickup to be different...

I'm almost finished with this bass. Still working on the pickguard and bridge cover.

My PRS -

Many people criticize these basses. I think they sound great.

Here's my self-made Telemaster Bass VI, with tele pickups plus a P-90 in the middle:

There is some serious stuff going on with that beast!

What are the controls, and does it have a stereo out?
