Send Scott Miller a private message. I wrote him about a year ago on a similar question. I was wanting to replace the pickups in my Hamer Chapparal 12 string bass. He told me what the direct replacement soapbar was, but I can't remember.

Well, the direct replacement for this would be an EMG-HB. I like EMGs, but I just like Duncan a lot better. :-P The problem is that the original pickup is in the same exact enclosure that EMG uses for their guitar humbuckers. Since I don't want to modify the body of the instrument in any way at all, I figured there's gotta be another guitar humbucker sized bass pickup out there somewhere.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that the bass has come in, and it holds two surprizes. First, the thing is FRICKIN' AWESOME, regardless of the fact that it's champagne sparkle (kind of a chunky metallic with a pinkish hue). Secondly, it doesn't have the EMG Select SEHBs that I thought it was going to have, but rather it has what appear to be 35HZ without the EMG HZ logo. I haven't had a chance to plug it in, yet, but the thing feels awesome and has a nice unplugged tone and some majorly beefy hardware. I'd rock this thing, if it weren't pink. LOL

Rio Grande makes exactly that.

Rio Grande makes exactly that.

Exactly what? The humbucker that I no longer need or the soapbar?
