I measured my 89 Stingray and my 79 Sabre and they are in the same place. It's a bit hard to tell, it looks different because the bridges aren't the same so I measured from the butt end of the neck and they are about 1/32" different.

Sabre Bridge Pickup

Hello- I own a Sabre, and for a few years owned a Stingray. Though it has been several years since I owned the stingray, I always thought the sabre bridge pickup was closer to the bridge than the Stingray. But Bovinhost says differently and he apparantly still has both basses. So, I'd defer to him.
