Can anyone confirm if the length of the pickups on this bass are 3.6" / 3.73" or 4.0" / 4.14"? I'm having a bit of trouble tracking down the answer. Thanks!

Bump... If anyone knows a relevant megathread where it would make sense to post this, please let me know.
I received mine in the mail today. I don't think the information exists yet online, so here are the details:
Pickup length: 4.0" / 4.14"
String spacing at bridge: 18.3mm / 0.72"
The Fender website lists the bridge as simply "Fender HiMass™ with Chrome-Plated Zinc Saddles", but there are actually two of those for the 5-string, and I'm not sure why they don't specify. There is the "Wide" version with 0.75" spacing and the "Narrow" version with 0.72" spacing. This bass has the "Narrow" version.
