5 string custom bass

I just wanted to show off this P-bass style bass I've been modifying. All that's left is to change the pickups; I was thinking about getting some EMG Geezer Butlers. Or what pickup do you recommend? The main genres I play are trip hop, industrial, noise,pop, dub, r&b, jazz, and some metal and corridos.

It is perfectly calibrated, tuned, and the frets have been adjusted and filed by me.

I wanted to show off this rare find and ask: Is the pickup a humbucker? Should I replace it with a newer one? I really like the sound, although it does have a bit of feedback. I'm using it with a distortion like a Royal DFA1979/Lightning Bolt/Royal Blood/RATM. As far as I know, that little switch is for toggling between parallel and series wiring. Should I keep it? Or trade it for a Squier Bronco? (lol)

O Hey, I have a question. I have 3 basses, two of them are P-bass type ( one is a 5 string) and the other one is a Schafer headless with a passive humbucker

The problem is that I'd like to avoid being so redundant, since I feel I can do the same or even better than the other P-Bass with the 5-string one. What can I do to stop feeling that way? Should I tune it differently? I feel like having both basses in standard tuning is too redundant.

I usually use the headless bass as if it were a low tuned guitar because it handles distortion better.
