Just got this mail from AC:

Many of you have asked for this and we're finally delivering on the promise we made to you.* Five string pickups are here!

Here is a photo of the beauties.*
(see below)

As you can see they're very similar in look to our four string pickups.* The only difference are the specs.

Neck pickup: 6.8 K Ohms, 2.29 inductance
Bridge pickup: 7.67 K Ohms, 2.74 inductance

Here again is the listing on our store page where you can find more information.
Price: $250 plus $15.99 shipping (domestic only)

**Upcoming Events***
We'll be at Bass Player Live coming up next weekend. Drop by and say hi if you're going!

*Feedback from you***
To help share a little bit about what Alleva Coppolo fans have been up to we're highlighting from time to time some of the communication we have with you all. Mitch the Bass Player sent us some photos of himself with his AC KBP5 Classic Supreme. Check it out.


Cheers,

Patrick

Ah that Gold one was Paul Turners original bass.. He then got the white one.. I remember taking that photo a few years back.

Hey if anyone is going to BPL this weekend, maybe you could talk jimmy into fabricating these Bimini pickup covers, I would love to add these to my A-C's, the standard size covers are too big for a 21 fret instrument. :hyper:

That one had the Aguilar Preamp.. not sure if Ken got that bass latter on with the Alleva pre reinstalled..
Dont know..

I have a photo somewhere of both Paul and Keith at NAMM with those basses.. have to go look

That one looks like the same color as Ken's harvest gold, it's just the lighting in the pic that makes it look different.

Thanks Vision .
I am considering this colour for my LG 5 with matching headstock , but not sure if it is not too much " gold" with the matching headstock?

I think it goes well with a dark piece of Indian rosewood for the fretboard , but with matching headstock ?

What do you guys think?

I didn't mean it looked like the same bass, just that it looks like the same color harvest gold.

Actually that pic is funny because if you take off the pickup covers and that big 5th knob from the Aguilar pre it looks like a pic of both of Ken's basses. :p

I think that would look KILLER. I actually have a Fender jazz that I'm planning on having refinished to harvest gold so it will have a similar look (although the Fender has morado instead of that nice dark Indian rosewood.)

Maybe it is the same bass??? I really dont know..... Did Ken Spec it New.. or did he get pre owned?
Hope he checks in soon to let us know..

I'm pretty sure that is a different bass, but kind of funny that both are kind of the same as my two. I remember that picture. I wish I had 1/4 of the skill of either of those two guys.
