Bartolini M34CX 4-String M3 Soapbar Neck Pickup

Description

Your neck pickup does the heavy lifting for tone, and the Bartolini M34CX M3 soapbar humbucker is built to give you serious low-end authority. Drop it into the neck position of your 4-string bass and you’ll feel the difference immediately — strong, muscular lows and low-mids that fill out a mix without turning to mud, paired with trebles that stay vibrant and articulate rather than harsh.

This is the kind of pickup that rewards players who dig in. Whether you’re laying down a slow, grooving line or popping through a funk break, the M34CX keeps the bottom end tight and controlled while letting the highs cut through for pick and slap work. It’s a versatile voice that works across genres — from motown-style walking lines to modern rock and everything in between.

Housed in the EMG 35 soapbar size, this pickup drops into any bass routed for that footprint without modification, making it a straightforward upgrade for players looking to swap in a hotter, more defined tone.

• Dual-coil humbucker design for deep, powerful tone
• Strong lows and low-mids with bright, vibrant trebles
• Designed for the neck position on a 4-string bass
• EMG 35 soapbar size: 1-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ (38mm x 89mm)

If your current neck pickup feels thin or underpowered, the M34CX gives you the low-end weight and tonal clarity to anchor your whole rig.
