Description
Every Jazz Bass player knows the trade-off: that vintage single-coil snap you love comes bundled with 60-cycle hum the second you step under stage lighting or crank a dirty amp. Fender’s Vintage Noiseless set solves that problem without watering down the tone that made J-Bass pickups famous in the first place.
This is the long-bridge, short-neck configuration, built to genuine Fender specs so it drops into your American Deluxe Jazz Bass (or any bass routed for this size) without modification. Alnico 2 magnets keep the attack warm and the midrange easygoing rather than aggressive, while hand-beveled polepieces with carefully radiused shaping give you a smooth, balanced string-to-string response — no dead spots, no harsh peaks.
Under the hood, polysol-coated magnet wire and a vinyl-coated output lead sit on a durable plastic bobbin, so these are built for the long haul of gigging and touring, not just bedroom noodling. Installation hardware is included, so you’re ready to wire them in and get back to playing.
