Description
Stock P-Bass pickups get tired fast — muddy lows, no bite when you dig in. The DiMarzio DP122BK Model P swaps that in for a two-piece, hum-cancelling design built to keep your low end tight and your mids growling when you lean into the strings. It’s not a tone makeover, it’s a truer, more honest read on what your bass is actually doing under your hands — just with more gain and grit on tap.
Because it’s split-coil and noise-cancelling, you get quiet performance on stage or in the studio without losing the punch that makes a P-Bass a P-Bass. Push it hard and it answers back with real mid-range snarl instead of falling apart. Pair it with a bridge-position DiMarzio Model J or Ultra Jazz if you want to widen your palette — from tight, punchy midrange to a warmer, rounder bottom with clear top-end cut.
This listing bundles the pickup with a set of Ernie Ball Power Slinky strings (EB2831), so you can drop in the new pickup and restring in the same session — no separate trip to the string bin required.

Whether your P-Bass has gone dull with age or you’re chasing a more aggressive, cut-through-the-mix tone, the Model P delivers the fundamental upgrade most bassists reach for first.
