Bridges with built-in pickups: I know these exist for violin, worth looking at for double bass or money wasted?

Fishman Full Circle double bass pickups are built into a bridge adjustment wheel - they have a good reputation, but aren't cheap and are best fitted by a luthier.
Other DB pickups either clip or fix onto the bridge, into the bridge wings or under the bridge foot, depending on model.
