Jaguar Pickup Replacements

I've looked and not found exactly what I wanted to read about this. I would like to know what pickups you have in your Jag and what the difference is to you over the stock pickups. if you have sound clips, I would love that.

Thanks for all the input!

I have never heard of anyone doing Jaguar Bass replacements. Maybe Bartolini?

EDIT = Jaguar pups are the same as Jazz pups! Therefore any combination under the sun is possible!

I understand that. I'm wanting to know what upgrade pickups people have put in their bass. i.e. Seymour Duncan, Fralin, Bartolini, etc.

It's funny; I was just about to start an identical thread. Does anyone know how SD 1/4lbs sound in a Jag?

I like the stock pickups (great grindy tone), but am starting to prefer more of a round, mellower "McCartney Abbey Road era Rickenbacker" tone. I used to have some SD's in my P-Bass and they really brought it to life.

Thoughts?
