Anyone know if there's any way to use them without the Series I electronics? I'm guessing not but I'm sure many of you know for sure. gtrguy Advanced Member Username: gtrguy Post Number: 298 Registered: 9-2004 Posted on Wednesday, May 12, 2010 - 10:36 am:    The Alembic electronics board is pretty complicated that would go with these pickups. What I am wondering is why the original owner had them replaced? pswanson Junior Username: pswanson Post Number: 14 Registered: 12-2003 Posted on Wednesday, May 12, 2010 - 1:08 pm:    I am the seller of these pickups. They come from a 1981 series 1 that I had refinished last month. Part of the refinishing was having the electronics upgrade that impacts older basses prone to high frequency noise. When they do the modification they provide new pickups. Pickups are in great shape. Reserve price is $250. Thanks! Pete
