Description
If you play blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal or nu-metal, the Quarter Pound bridge pickup is the Jazz Bass upgrade that hits back. Seymour Duncan built this one around quarter-inch pole pieces and dense coil windings, so what you get out the other end is a big, muscular fundamental with an attack that cuts through a mix instead of getting buried in it.
This is the bridge counterpart to the Hot Jazz Bass pickup, dialed in for even more bite and push. It’s a true single-coil, so expect that classic Jazz Bass growl and clarity, just with more low-end weight and output behind it. Sustain holds well past where a stock pickup would fade, which matters when you’re digging into a slow blues line or riding out a heavy riff live.
- True single-coil bridge pickup for Jazz Bass
- Quarter-inch pole pieces for a fuller, more aggressive response
- High output with strong sustain
- Includes logo cover
- Pairs with the reverse-wound neck version for hum-canceling operation when both pickups run together
Drop it in for a straightforward tone upgrade, or pair it with the matching neck pickup if you want the full Quarter Pound treatment and hum cancellation. Either way, it’s a solid pickup swap for bassists chasing more push out of a J-bass without losing the character that makes it a Jazz Bass in the first place.
