Full Description
Designed for maximum tonal versatility, the Classic J is the perfect passive pickup for your Jazz Bass. Use the tone control to roll off the high-end and hit the bridge pickup for fat “Jaco” inspired tones, or open up all controls and find enough punch, harmonics and clarity for some serious slap-work. The aged magnets allow for plectrum work that retains detail and a crisp attack.
Wax potted to eliminate microphonic feedback. RWRP for noise cancelling operation when both pickups are in series or parallel.
Note: The Classic J set was sold under the name "Jazz Plus" for many years - Nothing has changed except the name!
New for 2024 - Due to popular demand, we've begun to make a variation of the Classic J with staggered poles - these work especially well with basses with more rounded fingerboards, such as the 7 1/4" boards found on vintage models and reissues.
