    Looking for a Soapbar Pickup with Bartolini B-Axis Tone?

    Has anyone come across a soapbar pickup that captures the essence of B-Axis pickups (thinking Justin Raines, Liam Tillyer etc.)? Thanks!

    Soapbars That Sound Like A '64 Thunderbird

    I've been really appreciating Ian Allison's tone on his signature Lull IMA4 with Lull's proprietary Thunderbird pickups. I believe those pickups are based off of Mike Lull's '64 Thunderbird. I would love to find soapbars that can get close to that sound. Any ideas? Thanks!

    One half of P-Bass pickup much louder than the other.

    I have just installed DiMarzio pickups into my P bass and the one covering the E-A strings sounds perfectly fine but the D-G pup is much quieter. The G string also produces a strange reverberation sound and the D string has a lot of “thump” on the attack which the other strings don’t have...

    What is your preferred 5 string configuration? (Pickup Config, Active/Passive, Scale length, Bolt on/Through neck, String Spacing, type and gauges)

    I'm in the market for a 5 string. People seem to be pickier about 5 string basses due to the low B. There's a lot of discussion about what makes it pop and I'd like you're opinions on the specifics. What is you're preferred 5 string configuration and why? (Pickup Config, Active/Passive, Scale...

    How many pickups are in your main bass?

    What the title says. I tend to gravitate towards single-pickup basses. I like the simplicity and how they look and operate.

    Cloning pickups? (or closest known alternative)

    I've been playing bass for 35+ years and I have found my fave pickups ever. No need to talk me out of them, these definitely are the best I've owned (and I've owned MANY), the tone on any other pickup (single coil or not) just can't touch this for me. I like them Jazz Bass sounding but as punchy...
