Hi,
I just found out that the bridge pickup on my Longnekcer bass is dead. Can anybody steer me to some how to fix if possible, or what replacements would be good? Thanks in advance!

There are a couple of different ways a pup can die so the repair would depend. A break at the lead wire is probably most common. If that is the case it can be carefully re-soldered. If the break is in the coil, the coil can be re-wound. Not sure the cost on this. Finally a pup can become demagnetized. The magnet can be re-magnetized. I will defer to others on best replacements.
