Gibson Bass pick up deal?
« on: January 14, 2023, 05:16:36 PM »
Listed as Grabber. Says Ripper. But seems like neither.  Maybe a deal.

Model One and Schallers?  Ish.

Looks like a 20/20 pickup cover. It likely isn’t for a 20/20 because it doesn’t have the visible circuit board on the back.
It also has three screws like the 20/20 pickup. Looks like a bridge pickup according to screw location.

I was just gonna say, it's 20/20 pup from the 80ies, not a Ripper or Grabber pup from the 70ies. Whether that works without the active electronics and how it then sounds is anybody's guess.

Not exactly a passive one either!
