Split Brick Style Humbucker

[Matt W.]

Does anyone know where I can buy a pickup like the one in this photo? It’s from a Reverend bass. They refer to it as a “split brick” pickup. I guess it’s kind of like a p-bass style pickup with a full humbucker cover. As far as I know Reverend doesn’t sell them and haven’t been able to find them anywhere else.

Roswell do a reverse version but sadly they're 'trade only' .

Saw similar setup today on a new Squire Jag (SS?) in a music store. Maybe not the exact pickup, but the "brick arrangement. There was NO J pickup.

Delano has different quad coils that can be wired like this and switched to other options...

Reverend just announced that they are selling their pickups separately at $80 a pop on their website:

Retail Store - Reverend Guitars | We know what players want.

I'm curious about this pickup, particularly wondering how it might sound in a passive setup in the MM sweet spot. It's not expensive, so I might just give it a try in my upcoming Warmoth project.

That looks like such a good solution to the Stingray issue with the high strings. Even if it only helps a little

What is the “issue” ? My SBMM with a Nordstrand pickup sounds great across all 4 strings. I do take slight issue with typical P basses with the DG coil being the one closer to the bridge. Reverse P is more balanced to my ears.

The issue is my D and G strings sound kinda whimpy. I can see that reverse P giving the oomph where the bass needs it, balancing the strings a little. I might be wrong, but it just looks like it would
