Bartolini 58S72 5-String P-Bass Pickup Set (8S)

Description

When you’re running a 5-string P-Bass, you need a pickup that can handle the extra width without losing that classic split-coil punch. The Bartolini 58S72 is a direct swap for your Fender Precision Bass, engineered specifically for the wider 72mm string spacing that comes with a low B string.

This is Bartolini’s Original Series design, a passive single-coil pickup that luthiers and working bassists have trusted for decades because it just sounds right. The two halves of the P-style split coil overlap by 3/4″ (19mm), which is part of what gives these pickups their thick, even low-end response across the strings. Everything is cast in epoxy, so hum and microphonic noise stay out of the way whether you’re tracking in the studio or grinding through a loud stage.

If your P-Bass tone has felt thin or inconsistent since you added that fifth string, this is the fix — deep, woody fundamental with the reliability to hold up night after night.
