Dolando Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Hello, I'll be building a bass with jazz bass pickups and would like to have pickup placement similar to the warwick thumb. So, could someone with a Thumb 4 string tell me the measurements of where the pickups are located measured from the 12th fret to the centre of each pickup? Thanks, Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblueplanet Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 The image you show is a neck-thru thumb with 26 frets. Will this be a different length from a bolt-on model with 24 frets which is what I have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolando Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 So it is! I didn't even know that existed. I don't think it makes a difference, but yours would be perfect if you don't mind giving it a little measure. If its not too much trouble could you measure the top at the E string and bottomat the G string of the bridge pickup as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblueplanet Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 From 12th fret to middle of neck pup is 32.5 cm. Bridge pup E string 39.5 cm. Bridge pup G string 39 cm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
