Mounting position of the pickups doesn't make as much a difference on a bass as it does with a guitar. Adjusting your picking position makes a bigger difference than reverse versus standard if you ask me.

Rule of thumb... the more pot you have, the better your tone.

I'll have a blend control to blend the two pups from full J bass to full P bass. I even considered mounting the P bass pups a little closer to the neck.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
