All the Smith Soapbar Pickups are dual coil pickups. The same Pickups designed and made since 1982. These are use on all handmade Smith Basses with the exception of the JJ models.

Question Replace?

Is this a USA made Smith Bass with Soapbar pickups you have now?

It is not clear what Bass you are talking about.

I don't know anything about quad coil pickups, sorry.
