Same pickups. Show us the bridge and the rest.
Here’s the rest including ohsc, I haven’t a photo without bridge cover. I take one later and update.

I’ve said before, this is unusual to me in being Rick scale and pickup placement. Not looks though. :laugh:
 
I do it that way too. I relearned All My Loving and kept listening piece by piece to get the fingering down.
Must drive anyone else nuts. For anyone doing this stuff on a Mac, my favorite software for this is Felt Tip's Sound Studio. I've been using it for probably 20 years. Curious what others use.

I use a variety of methods. But I like notation best, mainly to understand the timing. So I look for charts. There are a lot available. Many free and some for only a few bucks. I was using ASD on the iPad as a learning tool, but it is no longer compatible with Spotify or Spotify is no longer compatible with it. Bummer. I slow things down with Chordify now. I have a Lot of Paul Wolfe tutorials that are pretty good. And I’ve become a Fan of Greg’s Bass Shed.
 
ZZ Top may be simple as far as notes, it’s the timing and at times speed that can be tough.
One reason I started using a pick when playing.

They were a good example of how music doesn't have to be complicated music to be great music. I'm sure they all could have played more complex music, but what they did worked and people will be listening to their work for a very long time.
