Not to worry, mate, after all, that one only had four pickups!

Thunder, the only pickups that make a difference on that beast tonewise are the neck and the bridge. The other two just get some of the in between variances (and there aren't that many on a bass). They weren't much more than spares. An EB-3 should make all the same sounds.

Four is a bit of an overkill, eh?
