Description
If you’re chasing that classic Bartolini growl without sacrificing low-end weight, the M34C-T delivers. This is a single soapbar-style pickup built for the bridge position on a 4-string bass, part of Bartolini’s Original Series lineup that’s been a go-to for players wanting tone over gimmicks.
The coil design here leans into deep, full-bodied tone—the kind of low-mid presence that lets you sit in a mix without getting buried, but still cuts through when you dig in. Placed at the bridge, it captures the tighter, punchier character of the string, giving you a natural pairing point if you’re building out a full pickup set or replacing a worn original.
- Single soapbar pickup for 4-string bass
- Voiced for bridge position placement
- Deep tone coil configuration
- Epoxy-cast construction to fight hum and microphonic noise on stage
That epoxy casting isn’t just for looks—it locks the coil in place so you’re not fighting feedback or unwanted noise when you’re standing in front of a loud amp or under stage lights. It’s a detail that matters once you’re gigging regularly and need pickups that stay quiet and consistent night after night.
Heads up before you order: depending on your bass’s existing cavity, you may need to do some routing to get this pickup seated correctly. Check your instrument’s soapbar dimensions before installing.
