I've always thought that type of pickup looked good only on the old Hagstrom Coronado basses and of course the Guild Starfire basses from the late 60's.



Hey, does that have keyless entry?  ;D

Given my craving for odd basses, I think Uwe may have passed his Stratbass idea along to me. But whadda I know...I think Darkstars are very cool looking!

Whatever Hondo called it, the top pic is a Precision body, not a Strat body.

Wonder if they have the original pickups for sale as well :P

 :rimshot: Yes they were ....... I picked them up on evilBay  ;D

Don't think they will look OK on just any bass but they sound like otherworldly just the same and they look real cool on my Starfire..... they cost a bundle but they're worth every cent
