Description
The M44CBC-T is Bartolini’s dual-coil M4 soapbar pickup, made for the bridge slot on your bass. It measures 4.00″ / 101.60mm long by 1.50″ / 38.10mm wide, so it drops into standard soapbar routs without any surprises.
What you get in the bridge position is exactly what a lot of bassists chase: fat, authoritative lows and low-mids paired with a crisp, bright treble edge. It’s part of Bartolini’s “Classic Bass” line, which sticks to passive circuitry but widens the frequency window compared to older passive designs. That means you’re not stuck choosing between growl and sparkle — this pickup gives you more air and string definition up top while keeping the bottom end full and present.
Practical stuff for gigging players: the coils are epoxy-cast, which locks everything down against microphonics and unwanted feedback — useful if you’re running hot stage volumes or standing near a wedge. Passive output also means it plays nice with a wide range of preamps and outboard EQ if you want to shape things further down the signal chain.
