Well, I ordered a Deluxe V P bass body off Warmoth's Showcase and had it routed for v/t/jack and a single standard P-style pickup. I'm waiting to get a neck, and I'm pretty sure I want goncalo alves/pau ferro with a 5 inline headstock.
My next mission is what to get for the pickup. Obviously not all standard P-bass pickups are ideal for a 5 string bass. I'm thinking either the Bill Lawrence P-46 or the new Lace Alumitone P pickup. Does anyone have any experience with these (I know the Alumitone is brand new) or any other pickups to recommend?
