Positioning of double split singelcoil Pbass

[Lassehellsten]

Building a Jazzbasstype 34" 4 string bass with 2 SD QP Split singlecoil Bassline pu. Want Pbass sound, so neck would be aprox 3,5 frets from bridge ( as Marcus Hoppus signature)
Want more overtones from bridge, so I plan to put the treble part at the same distance from bridge as 1:th fret, mid part will be same as a standard bridge jazzpu position and basspart of pu 1.67 fret from bridge.
Any other suggestions or should I just try?

BC Rich used to do this pretty often as well

I´m not really sure what you´re trying to find out, as "Frets" isnt exactly an easy thing to measure in an area where there are none, most use CM or inches... or am i totally misunderstanding you? :smack:
