Quick Pickup Swap Mod for Gibson Grabber

[cymatics]

I am considering a ‘soft’ modification for one of my Gibson Grabbers to make it capable of repeated quick pickup swaps. My thought was to have custom slider plates made for a few different types of pickups so I can have a handful of different tonal options, without buying additional basses. I’m hoping I would be able to use a male/female set of these Invalid Link Removed as a quick dis/reconnect between the pickup and the volume pot. My thinking was that screw terminal connectors would be ideal as the swap could be done with nothing more than a mini slotted screwdriver. Does anyone see any problems or flaws with that? If so, what might be a better option?

Spade connectors might be another way to go as then it is just disconnecting and reconnecting as opposed to what is basicaly a mechanical join which can break and damage the wire from the pickup / pot

Something like this would make for a clean install.
