StewMac Pickups For Jazz Bass – StewMac

StewMac Pickups for Jazz Bass

Built with the same specs that powered your favorite basses—now with the reliability needed by today’s players.

The new standard for replacement pickups
Replace those muddy and dark stock pickups! When you need to hold down the song with deep bass and classic mid-range tone, these are the pickups to choose. The Alnico 5 magnets produce a clear tone with more pronounced highs and a tighter low end, perfect for bass frequencies.

Use them as a set
When using the neck and bridge as a set, the reverse-wound, reverse-polarity coils are hum-cancelling when both pickups are at full volume.
