Most have about 2 pick ups, but it depends since obviously like any other instrument they can be modified to have more or less. Usually a standard bass has 2 pick ups (P Style and J Style pick ups are popular and most pick ups are magnetic). A 5 or 6 string bass should have longer pick ups (wider) than a 4 string (shorts pick ups on 5 or 6 string basses yeild a poorer sound in most instances)

Also, the action on a guitar simply wouldn't work with a bass string. As far as pickups go, I'm not sure what bass frequencies would do to a guitar pickup, but i wouldn't try.
