NORDSTRAND DC5 SOAPBAR PICKUPS

rockosocko · #1 05-31-2011, 06:25 PM

I bought these about 2 months ago, they sound great but it's not the sound I'm going for. These pickups are wired in series, which gives more output than the parallel version. I purchased them from Best Bass Gear for $315.00, but selling them for $175.00 shipped CONUS.

Please note that these pickups sell for $163.00 each new. As such the price of $175.00 for both is firm.

I know these are prob reviewed all over the internet, but please describe their tone/compare them as best as you can.

Thanks.

The best descripton I can give is that they are very hi fi sounding: articulate and bright while still maintaining warmth.

Any interest in a trade for Big Splits?

funknasty · #16 07-11-2011, 11:05 AM

Wait a second, am I allowed to ask this as a non supporting member? Not sure but if not please disregard.

rockosocko · #17 07-12-2011, 05:25 AM

Thanks, but I'm not interested in trades, these are for sale only.
