Seymour Duncan Hot Jazz Bass Bridge Pickup

Description

If your Jazz Bass tone is too polite for the songs you’re playing, the Hot Jazz Bass bridge pickup is the fix. It shares the same basic single-coil design as Seymour Duncan’s Vintage Jazz pickups, but the coils are wound hotter and more aggressively, giving you a noticeably bigger output straight into your amp.

That extra wind doesn’t just mean louder — it reshapes the voice. Expect a heavier push through the midrange, the kind of growl and bite that cuts through a dense rock mix, holds its own under a drummer’s cymbals, or drives a blues shuffle with some real snarl. It’s built for players working in pop, blues, classic rock, and heavier rock styles where a thin, glassy Jazz Bass sound just won’t cut it.

Drop it into the bridge position on its own for punchy, aggressive lead and pick tones, or pair it with the matching Hot Jazz neck pickup. That neck version is reverse-wound, so when you run both pickups together at full volume, you get true hum-canceling performance along with the classic Jazz Bass scoop-and-growl blend — just with more muscle behind it.

• Bridge position single-coil, hot-wound for higher output
• Mid-heavy voice suited to rock, blues, pop, and heavy rock
• Includes logo cover
• Hum-canceling when paired with the reverse-wound Hot Jazz neck pickup

A straightforward upgrade for bassists who want their Jazz Bass to hit harder without losing the instrument’s character.
