Will Gunn has informed me that both pickup styles are avaliable(with and without gold lettering).Do you think there is any chance of a photo of the two different types next to the body so i can compere.

many thanks Dave

Hi Mica, I've made up my mind on the pickups and after much studying of bass pictures on this site,i would if possible like the older style without the gold lettering and also the older style top hat knobs(which i think are already on my work order).
Many thanks Dave

OK. We'll cast the pickups in the silicone molds instead of the harder ABS plastic shells. There is no decoration on the pickups, just smooth polyurethane.

There's actually 2 styles:

1. no decoration at all

2. engraved name decoration

Just let me know which one you want.
