    I want a set of Bartolini pickups that will get coil switching. Not sure if it's dual or quad coil that's needed. Which series of Barts would you recommend? I play jazz, funk, Christian and gospel music. Has to be in a P2 style. I'm using a Bart 3 band eq/18v preamp and have 2 switches already installed ready for hook up. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. Merry Christmas and thank you!

    You can do coil switching with either dual or quad coil. The main difference is that quad coil will be hum cancelling when in single coil mode and will sound darker.

    I like the Classic Bass dual coils myself (P25's):

    I know this is asking much. What preamp are you using and could you possibly send a clip or two. What bass are you using/

    That's the set I'm considering by the way.
