Description
If you’re chasing that vintage Jazz Bass voice — the kind that cuts through a mix on a blues shuffle or sits warm and round under a country ballad — the SJB-1 set gets you there honestly. These are true single-coils, hand-wound with Alnico 5 magnets, no shortcuts. The moderate winding keeps the low end full without getting muddy, and there’s still enough top-end clarity to let your pick attack or fingerstyle dynamics come through.
- Calibrated neck (SJB-1N) and bridge (SJB-1B) pair — output levels matched for a balanced blend
- Neck pickup is slightly narrower to match the fretboard taper
- Reverse-wound/reverse-polarity neck pickup cancels hum when both pickups are on together
- Waxed cloth hookup cable and non-logo covers included
- Pairs well with Seymour Duncan STC-2 or STC-3 Tone Circuits if you want more control over the tonal spread
This is the pickup set for players who want their bass to sound like a bass — not scooped, not sterile, just that woody, punchy Jazz Bass character that’s driven decades of country, pop, blues, and classic rock records. Drop them in, wire up the neck’s hum-canceling RW/RP setup, and you’ve got a foundation that works whether you’re recording direct or pushing air through a stack on stage.
This bundle also includes a free set of EB 2832 bass strings, so you can string up fresh right alongside your new pickups.
