Members bikehorn Posted April 1, 2008 Members Share Posted April 1, 2008 Please make a chrome bass humbucker! There is pretty much no selection in the guitar-humbucker-sized bass pickup field. Two entries from EMG(one a Select) and one extremely expensive pickup from Rio Grande. It probably won't be a super high volume item but that situation only exists because of a lack of availability. Something medium in output and with an accent on growl. I've been wanting pickups like this forever for a DIY bass but never found anything too appealing. I bet there are a lot of people out there thinking the same thing. I hope sometime you get the chance to give this a shot. In other news, keep up the awesome stuff!

There's always the EMG HB, which is basically their P bass pickup in a humbucker form factor. It works OK, but for me it really isn't wide enough to feel right when anchoring the thumb on the pickup. You're better off with a soapbar in my opinion, and it's not really any more difficult to route for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sheepeH Posted April 2, 2008 Members Share Posted April 2, 2008 Why not make a custom one? Seymour Duncan makes custom HB's [though it will be abit expensive] and maybe BG can make you one though im not sure he's making bass pickups.
