I just picked up a sunburst AJV, and I'm digging just about everything about it, expecially the wide string spacing at the nut.

My other Fender is an American 62 Reissue Precision Bass, so it's really nice to have similar spacing on the fingerboard.

The only downer about the Squier is the drop-off I'm experiencing on the outer strings. It's barely noticeable on the G-string, but it's pretty strong on the B string.

Since both pickup housings follow the 4-string J-bass neck pattern (1.5" between screw holes, 3 5/8" long), I'm going to need something with an unusually wide coverage pattern, maybe a blade pickup.

Any suggestions for a pickup that works well with these basses?
