Interesting that it's 4-conductor so it can be split to single coil.

I have one but both of the ears broke off.

How much is shipping to the U.K. on an item like that?

Re: Maricela-wound Rickenbacker bass pickup on the bay

Transatlantic shipping could easily cost thirty Dollars. The real stinger would be European Union import duties and local purchase tax.

I was going to say I could pick it up and then 'sell' it to ya - do a Trading Post/PayPal exchange kind of thing. Sounds like getting it to you could be 2x the £ of the pickup. There's one more day and 0 bids right now. Let me know.

Thank you for the offer but, for now, I am keeping my Rick original.

I notice that the neck/Rhythm pickup cavity is pretty generous. I have a spare DiMarzio DP145 Will Power and a Bartolini Jazz Bass pickup. A Cliff Burton-style mod could be on the cards.
