Is that a SD treble pickup?

Hmmm....makes you wonder what's in the neck position.
It's hard to tell in the pic,but it does look wider then a stock Ric pickup.

Maybe that's why Greg's hand is covering it!

Hey Roger, your 4001 deserves better pickups than that!

I find with my amp I can get that signature Rick sound even with the SD's. I don't think they're all that bad, but then my 4001 neck pup was totally dead when I got it.

It also appears there is a missing Bass Tone knob.

I actually found the shop that refinished it online. Here's a link to a picture of the bass being "hung up to dry". It definitely has an aftermarket neck pickup as well as the Duncan bridge pickup:

I heard that he was not happy with it and was not playing it much on tour.
