Those are both Regular pick-ups on the ESP, but one Is a J-Bass style pickup(the long one) and the other is a P-bass pickup. While they look like two, they're really one, I believe.

It's VERY hard to go wrong with a Peavey, quality construction (many of the even budget instruments are made in the US), golden sound, and renowned reliablity. Our Jazz band had an old Peavy Foundation and the thing is sweet, and was probably only $200 new. I say Peavey, but the choice is yours.

I have a preference for ESP over Peavey. Peavey's make decent amps and cabs but their instruments don't really feel up to par with me. Also, ESP I'm more familiar with, as two former bandmates played F-50 guitars. Go to http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ there they have reviews that I've found really helpful when narrowing down choices on investments.
