Split coil p'up for a single coil '51 Reissue P bass?

[Noisyjon]

Hi All,

First up aplogies if this has (undoubtably) been asked somewhere else before.
I have seen Lollar do a split coil model that fits in the single coil space on the Fender '51 P basses but can you tell me who else makes such a beastie?
Also anyone heard/own one - sounds?

Cheers,
Jon.

I know someone does - Fralin I think?

Edit - yep!

Not cheap though $120 + the usual costs

I see Seymour Duncan do one as part of the Custom Shop range too, [url="http://www.seymourduncan.com/products/custom-shop/specialized-1/single_coilstac/"]see this link[/url]

Wow, even more than the Fralin!

But I see it's a stacked humbucker rather than a split coil, so you coud have switching for humbucking/single coil. Nice.

Bit of an update on this subject - I ordered a SD Custom Shop 'Hot Stack for Single Coil P Bass' and had it installed into my Bravewood 50's RI P bass... It provides a nice punchy, full sound with no hum while looking like a perfectly innocent single coilos P bass pickup!

Cheers,
