Two Big Singles in an MM cover.

Not what I needed to see. I look forward to hearing samples of this pickup.

 

[TonyP-]

Awesome...

Idea - Take a stock Sterling Ray 35 with the 3 Band EQ and three way switch and drop this bad boy in it......I think I have my next project!

 

[Jeff Moote]

This gives me all kinds of ideas...

I hope this is not available in a 4 string format with ears (like for a Lakland 44-02). Please let it not be. My bank account can't takes no more!

 

[BassGyver]

Oh no! THE ultimate candidate for my MM sized pickup mega test?

Maybe i should sell some of the MM pu i have now to buy that one...

I was at the shop last week, and saw a tray of pickups being born, don't know if these were them, but yes, this is an interesting development.

I'm picturing a nice 5 string Lull with 2 of these with each pickup having a little 3 way toggle.
Oh My.

 

[Mulebagger]

Omg I really need to just leave this monster alone... Hmmm but those look freaking amazing.

 

[Mulebagger]

You read my mind Tony!!!

 

[Joe Kyle]

Do you think it will be more MFD or stay truer to the MM sound? Either way.... WANT.

Someone needs to do a side by side with these and the reissue Lane Poors.

 

[Jeff Moote]

I'm curious as to the default (and possible custom) spacing on these. The soapbar style SR5 pickup cover pictured would be default 17 mm spacing but Big Singles are typically 19 mm unless custom ordered.

Been considering adding a neck pickup to my RAy5 OLP body-Moses Neck-Nord MM4 with Nord 2 band...this might be the ticket. If a coil switch is possible then I might just hit order now!

 

[sevdog]

Hmm, I think I'd have to do a custom order to get the right string spacing. I wonder what the cost difference is.

 

[maurilio]

The up charge for custom spacing, if doable, is really not much at all!..

 

[maurilio]

Wiring option like any dual coil 4 wires

 

[Handyman]

Anyone got the dimensions of this thing? It looks like a different case than their other MM pickups.

That particular one looks like a standard Stingray 5 size.

Ohhhh maaaannnn.....

I have a bass with a split-coil J and the quad-coil MM, both Nordstrands, and I've always felt it lacked a little something vs. my Big Single equipped guy.

Am I a bad enough dude to go BigMan + route the split J out for a Big Single?
