Pick ups look the same as on my EB4, they sound good and have coil taps built in (at least, mine does!) so they are quite versatile. Shame they've gone for the crappy 3 point bridge, though, the EB4 comes with Babicz as standard, a far better option.

I think you'll find that the bridge is the Babiscz replacement for the 3 point bridge so keeps the look of the original but gives the adjustability the same as on you new EB.

While I really like the RD "shape", I've heard stories about the weight of the originals. And this re-issue, with the maple body.... I'm smelling a 12lb bass!!!! We'll find out as soon as sweetwater get 'em in stock and weigh one, I 'spose. ;)

to be honest i think my original is 11lbs but i love the weight, it sits there and i play it,  it doesnt move, it doesnt feel like a cheap piece of wood,  its perfect
