5 String Jazz bass pickups

Dudes/Dudettes,

I'm upgrading my Jazz 5 pickups and need something with high output, a nice balanced tone and volume for live performance.

Music style is Rock and R&B.

As it's a 5 string, need something that really registers that low B.

Basslines SJ5-3 Quarter pounders...YAY OR NAY?

Thanks!

There's different sizes of 5 string Jazz pickups. Does the Duncan match your bass?

The Seymours claim to be a direct replacement that fit in the existing cutout without any carpentry required.

thanks for the tips all!
