I would really to hear this bass with flats. That first two pickup configuration would be nice in Country music.

I have one of these. It is an incredible instrument.
Back in the 90’s, Fender’s first signature model bass was the Stu Hamm Urge Bass. It was a JPJ pickup configuration with an active bass and treble circuit. I don’t know if Sheldon realizes it, but this is essentially an updated version of that bass.

I bought it bcz of the ability to instantly switch from middle P to parallel neck bridge J. There’re lotsa tone options with the blend control as well
How come he never played the B string?
A little off topic, but if you remember the Gibson “Grabber”, moving the same pickup into different positions changes the sound. Dingwall refines this with a balance control and three pickups, something that simply wasn’t possible years ago with passive basses. Personally I like some distance between the pickups. Just my take however.

Never played a Grabber. I love the concept; just never been in the same room with one.
But, with the Nashville, I think pickup placement is geared towards emulating P, J and MM equivalents. I do know that those three pickups make a nice ramp that is very comfortable for my hand.
