  • That p bass sound...
Style: Original Vintage
Like the box says, get these if you want that original Fender Precision Bass sound. Made well, prewired to a new copper ground plate - solder in 2 wires and you're in business. At one time I had active pickups in this 30 year old Made In Japan P bass. Run by a 9 volt battery (I routed a battery cavity under the pickguard), they were bright and "attacky", and I really liked them at the time. Then, after some years of using those pickups, I reinstalled the originals out of a desire for change, and was amazed by the great tone. I didn't recall loving the original tone before, but this was great. That was at least 10 years ago. Then I bought these recently to replace the original pickups. Because the original pickups sound great to me in this bass, I did this primarily 'cause I've upgraded everything on this instrument over the years - better bridge, better tuners, and I now did the electronics, thinking I could improve the instrument's tone even more. While I can't say, "wow - it sounded awful before and now it's amazing!", I think maybe it's got better definition and clarity than before. It certainly has the traditional sound I'm looking for and I'm not wishing I hadn't bothered. I need to play and record with it more to form a clearer opinion, but so far it's everything I was hoping for, tone-wise. I did note that the new pickups look like they're maybe manufactured better than the old stock ones. All in all, these are the real deal, provide original spec sound, and they're made well and easy to install. It's hard to know whether you'll improve your sound in a way you'll like in any given instrument when you change pickups. But if you like upgrading your gear and experimenting, it's always worthwhile to try. ... show more

  • Great pickups
Style: Original Vintage
I have an old Precision Bass, made in Mexico. The pickups were awful and I put up with it for a while until I decided to spend the money and upgrade the pickups. I am not a professional, I just play for myself as a hobby. Otherwise I would have just invested in a better bass. Still, it is not a bad instrument, but the stock pickups hum a lot. If you have never changed pickups it is not difficult. I took off the pick guard, snipped the wires to the old pickups, removed the old pickups, and dropped the new ones in. Solder the wires (black to black, white to white), wrap the solder connections in electrical tape or heat shrink tube (preferable to electrical tape), and put everything back together and it was a quick change. Be sure to adjust the pickups so they are close to the strings without touching them. At first they were too far away and the sound would cut out randomly. Loosening the pickup screws a bit brings them toward the strings and no more cutting out. Once I had it together and retuned the strings (I loosened them to be able to work on the electronics) all I can say is "wow." These sound amazing, and no hum (these are humbucking pickups). Very crisp sound, nice tone. Despite this particular P-bass being a cheaper version of the real deal it sounds amazing. Good pickups and good strings do wonders for the sound. I have not changed any of the other electronics. I have heard that the tone and volume potentiometers are also cheap on the non-American models of the P-bass, but this sounds amazingly better with just new pickups. I highly recommend upgrading to these pickups if you have a cheaper model of the Precision Bass with crappy pickups that hum. ... show more

  • Vintage tone at a great price!
Style: Original Vintage
When I picked up my 2019 MIM Player Series P-Bass, I wasn't entirely convinced by what I was hearing. It was my first P-Bass, so maybe I wasn't used to the sound profile. Regardless, it wasn't "that P-Bass sound" I heard in my head. So I started to chase that tone. After hours (days) of watching videos, I found that the 1962 P-Bass reissue with flatwounds was exactly the sound profile I wanted. That led me here to the Fender Original Precision pickups. These pickups, with a 920D pot harness and new flatwounds, were EXACTLY what I was looking for, with no compromise. They're smooth, growly, articulate, sensitive, and punchy all at the same time. They shine in heavy rock, light jazz, slap/pop funk, and everything else. These helped me nail that vintage P-Bass tone I've been chasing for months. If you're looking for a top-notch set of pups that hits right on that 1962 sound, especially at a price that won't break the bank, then look no further. ... show more

  • It rocks too hard.
Style: Original Vintage
Installed it on a Squier Affinity PJ bass. The difference in sound is NIGHT AND DAY. So deep, so articulate, so toneful. OIne of the best purchases I've ever made. But they shipped it via USPS. It took AGES to arrive and the package came all beaten up. That could have been better.

  • transform your sub par bass
Style: Original Vintage
Im a pro-tech and installed these for a customer. it was a 2014 MIM fender P-bass. the stock pickups on these are basically the same that come on a squire VM....meaning crap. His shorted out or were extremely low Ohms (5k) and would barely be heard with flatwound strings. these New fender pickups came with cloth wire and a nice brass base-plate on each section. they tested at 13k and really brought out the mids (with flatwounds). the output was very strong without any harshness or distortion (i was playing through an old CRATE amp to). Its really a same Fender insists on producing mediocre instruments when a simple fix of better pickups could really improve a instrument with their nameplate. one caveat:these may be a bit bright if you play bright strings......you could tame the high's with a capacitor swap to a rating that doesn't pass all the brightness. ... show more
