Shaggy Posted July 23, 2010 Posted July 23, 2010 (edited) Selling a pair of Seymour Duncan upgrade pickups for Rickenbacker 4000 series basses; both virtually as new, boxed, with full wiring instructions. Also a genuine Ric chromed bridge pickup-cover / hand-rest that’s in good nick, no cracks, but fine scratching on the chrome – would look just right on an older bass. *EDIT : SOLD PENDING* Blurb from SD; SRB-1n (neck); “[i]This humbucking pickup improves tone and output over the stock Rickenbacker bass neck pickup while also reducing noise and hum. A full frequency, full bodied response is provided by the dual ceramic magnets and special coil winding. The sound is richer and thicker than stock pickups. Four-conductor shielded cable lets you split the coils electrically: in phase or out of phase, series or parallel, with or without humbucking effect. This pickup is a direct replacement and requires no bass guitar modification. Hand built in Santa Barbara, California[/i].” SRB-1b (bridge); “[i]This humbucking pickup provides more sustain, power and punch than stock Rickenbacker Bass pickup while also reducing noise and hum. Dual Alnico V blade magnets provide full frequency, full bodied response. A special phenolic pickup surround is included to improve the appearance of your bass. Four-conductor shielded cable lets you split the coils electrically: in phase or out of phase, series or parallel, with or without humbucking effect. This pickup is a direct replacement and requires no bass guitar modification. Hand built in Santa Barbara, California[/i].” Asking £40 each (posted) for the pickups (best deal on these on-line around £80 each plus shipping), £20 for the cover. Probably going on ebay this weekend. Edited August 4, 2010 by Shaggy

Beedster Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 I still have a black surround for the bridge PUP (sorry Greg, I'd completely forgotten I had it, and it turned up in a box the other day). Happy to forward that to whoever buys these if required C
