Jabba_the_gut Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) Having a little clearout of my project box and have a few things I don’t think I’ll use: Pair of Tobias 5 string pickups. Good condition – a couple of tiny surface marks, gold wording on pickups is perfect . I’m not sure which Tobias bass these came from (I bought all the hardware off the bass some time ago). Each pickup measures 18k ohm on a multimeter. [s]£25[/s] [s]£20[/s] [s]£15[/s] £12.50 the pair posted [s]Black knobs – precision type with flat tops. Unused but very minor surface marks on top (only noticeable by very close inspection). Will fit pots with spline type shafts. Good quality solid metal (they’re quite heavy for what they are). SOLD[/s] [s]Pickup from an early Hohner B2A bass. Well used, cracked mounting surround. Measure 10k ohm on a multimeter. SOLD[/s] [s]5 string black bridge. Some light surface marking (hairline scratches through the black finish) otherwise good condition (Originally from a Tobias bass). SOLD[/s] [s]4 string bridge. Never used – bought it of eBay for a project but found another bridge I preferred. SOLD[/s] Pair of pickup surrounds. Unused. £3 posted. Edited February 12, 2013 by Jabba_the_gut
GregBass Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Hi there Do you have any photos of the pickups? And would you split the knobs into two pairs (I only need a pair)?
Jabba_the_gut Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 Photos added. I will split the knobs into pairs if required. Cheers
Westie9 Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Hi, me being thick here but by 'Spline' shaft - does that mean they don't have the screw to tighten them up? Ta

andyonbass Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 I'll take two of the knobs if you're gonna split them.

GregBass Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 Could you measure the pickups for me please? I'm hoping they will fit my Warwick Rockbass.

GregBass Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Bum - they are just a bit too long and I really don't want to get into routing. Sorry
