bareknuckle P/J set bass pickups

Hi, just installed a pair of Bareknuckle 65'split coil P pickup and 60' PE Jazz bridge pickup on my 2012 Fender american deluxe precision bass..

Great pickups, especially the 60' PE J pickup it has more Output and More definition on the note articulation compare to the Fender stock pickup (Fender N3)

very rare to see bass player made a review of this pickup so i decide to made one check on this link:

i had a set on my MIM fender and they did wonders.
i even convinced my guitarist to get a set of aftermath humbuckers on his 7 string guitar, now he doesn't know how he ever lived without em

i HIGHLY recommend the brand

honestly I prefer the sound from the stock pickup for a p bass it should have that low end thump thats lacking in the bareknuckle pickup.

yes thats exactly what i heard too..

I set the pickup to high (near the string) at that soundsclip..

so it gets a little More gain/dirty sounds..

a little bit more modern on BK P pickups..not too traditional P sounds alike

Your brain and ear wont notice the different when you get the time-gap while changing the pickups..
