Seymour Duncan Single Coil P Bass Pickups?

[lovebrigade]

Has anyone tried any of the Seymour Duncan Single Coil P bass pickups? I have a musicmaster bass and its routed for a Stratocaster pickup as all musicmasters are and want to put in a new pickup. This looks like itd fit and was wondering if anyone had tried or if they had it could compare it.

Thanks

I'd be interested to know what these sound like too (in a fretless p-bass).

I have a 51 reissue with one in it. It is without a doubt the baddest sounding bass with that pickup. It is a quarter pounder, but its sound is not similar to the standard quarter pounders on regular P-basses. It kills in the high mids and the lows are very distinctive sounding. Of all the basses I have had, that is the only one that I have held on too.

Wait, you say its the baddest sounding bass you have but you mean bad as in "cool" right? I'm also curious about this pickup

Is that "cool" as in not so hot?

Maybe youre being sarcastic but if you aren't I mean cool like hip or fashionable. I guess I might just be bad with interpretting text but I really am not sure what he means.

The SCPB pickups are actually a little bit bigger than a standard Strat pickup but not by much so depending on your route you may be able to make it work. Dimensions are given on SD's website.

As far as a model to choose I would go for the Quarter Pounder. It's the best sounding of the group IMHO. I have sold a bunch of them to guys with 51 reissues and they seem to get really positive reviews.
