Description
Some pickups chase modern clarity. This one goes the other direction, straight back to 1962, when the Precision Bass split-coil design was still setting the standard for what an electric bass could sound like. Fender’s Custom Shop rebuilt that original spec by hand, aiming to capture the exact character that made the P-Bass the backbone of countless recordings.
- Split-coil design delivers that unmistakable P-Bass push: deep, booming low end that fills a mix without turning to mud
- Punchy midrange that cuts through a band mix and gives your notes definition, whether you’re playing fingerstyle or with a pick
- Clear, articulate high end that keeps string attack and pick clarity intact instead of getting buried
- Black bobbin finish for a clean, classic look under the pickguard
This is a drop-in upgrade for anyone whose P-Bass sounds a little too polite, or anyone building a bass and wanting that vintage backbone from the start. It’s the tone that launched the instrument itself, reproduced with Custom Shop attention to detail so your bass feels like it’s got real history behind every note.
Good for players chasing classic rock, motown-style grooves, reggae bottom end, or just want their P-Bass to sound like a P-Bass again.
