I am building a Ric-like 4001 bass and I am looking for pickups. I have thought of Joe Bardens and Bartolinis. Any others?
Yvonne Saw an ended sale on Reverb of them, they look cool. Looking for a sample of the sound online...
They only make the neck replacement, as has been argued in another thread. I'd prefer a whole set myself... To the OP - have you considered just getting a set of actual Ric pickups?
Maybe these would interest you ? About $110 for the pair WSC Music : Believe in Music !! WSC Music : Believe in Music !! Doubt you'll recognise the brand name Roswell but for years they've been supplying pickups to ESP,Fernandes,Fender,Spector and Status Graphite. Not 100% sure who the US stockists are but they will be out there.
Pretty sure Nordstrand would wind a Ric pickup to custom specs for a bit more $. Wouldn’t hurt to get in touch and ask!
