Hey guys my bass player gets an endorsment custom shop bass.
We play drop-A and we really have no idea what to use.

4/5 string. Mostly thinking about 4 string but with longer scale ...
should sound agressive and clanky (like a fender jazz in E transformed to drop-A)

so the questions is:

What scale?
What wood for neck and body?
what pickups?
what bridge?
what tuners?

Single pickup is fine...
