In reference to the original post and Geo’s question was in regards to the pickup choice to a SB8.

My understanding is that there are not many. Guys like me who are bass players and just want to "stick to the bass sticks".

The only current option for the SB8 is the ACTV-2. The pole pieces on a Stickup do not line up with the 8-string spacing on a Stickup. Sorry for any confusion.
