Description
If you’ve ever loved the growl and snap of a classic Jazz Bass but needed a fifth string to get there, this is your pickup. The Bartolini 57CBJS set delivers that vintage single-coil voice — woody midrange, punchy attack, and the kind of tonal separation between neck and bridge that lets you dial in everything from thumping root notes to biting lead lines further up the neck.
Bartolini built these to honor the American Vintage Jazz Bass sound, so you get the honest, unhyped character players chase when they want their bass to sit right in a mix without fighting for space. Single-coil design means you keep that raw, open response — no compression from active electronics, just the pickup doing its job and letting your fingers and technique come through.
Sold as a matched pair (neck and bridge), so your tone stays balanced and consistent across the whole set. Whether you’re rebuilding a 5-string Jazz Bass from the ground up or finally swapping out stock pickups that never quite delivered, these are a direct route to that authentic vintage low-end growl with the range a fifth string demands.
