Has anyone ever put single coils in a Thunderbird?

I've just picked up a lovely Epi Thunderbord from eBay. It looks great, and it's comfortable to play around your knees (as I do). I really hate the sound, though. It's really unfocussed and lacking in top-end. So I thought I might put some single coil pickups in and see what happens.

Has anyone ever tried this? Which pups might be best?

Hmm. No replies, but a few people looked, so I thought I'd update. I've now installed some Eastwood P90s, as seen on this bass:

The entire character of the bass has changed. But I still look cool playing it. More details once I take it to band practice this week and CRANK it.
