he will custom cover the exposed coil pickups with a plastic cover if ordered that way. You can get any of them with plain plastic shell.

I've got a Bart PJ setup in my fretted LG3005- I am a big fan.
But I’m also leaning heavily towards an all Nordstrand rig.
I’ve found that the Nordstrand preamps work equally well with other manufacturers pickups (not just Nordstrand).
I’ve got one in my Roscoe with Roscoe Bart’s p/u’s and I have one in my Fender Elite with Fender Noiseless Gen 4 p/u’s and both sound just awesome.
You may want to leave the Aggie p/u’s in and try a Nord pre first. That may just be the bees knees.
Dang Skip!
Trade that P/J Roscoe to me!!!
I forgot you had that one built recently.

You know Nordstrand Preamps are stellar if they can make a F***** sound good lol. I just had to do it.
lol
Shane, You must be feeling better!
I don’t have to defend the most recorded bass in music history!
No chance.
But I know a guy who will build you one just like it!
Yep! Quick, fast and in a hurry!! In just multiples of 2-week intervals!!

But wouldn’t those be passive F**** basses?
That’s right. They don’t even need a preamp to sound great (which I rarely use because the Nord pre has such a great passive sound) but if you like more modern sound you can use the active mode.
And you really should learn how to spell Fender Ray.
Oh I thought he was cussing.
I don't type those kind of words...
Cussing would be "F@%4%"! But I don't do that either.

That is an excellent idea. I may well do that.
!!! I have sinned!!! 
I guess now I have to go out and buy a Fender or a 5’er from Indonesia!!

Pay no attention to that 5th one, it's an all-Maple C@**#%! I had to get in on the dirty bass talk.

Sounds like a fair penance to me!
And it just might lead to you selling all your high end basses!
@steelin4u
I’ve got one ticket for that ride!
