Nordstrand P-bass Pickups

Sign in to disble this ad
I've got a mexican made P-bass which I love but the pickups on it are driving me crazy. Ive been looking round and ive considered alot of pickups i was curious if anyone has nordstrand pickups and if they would be better to get then bartolini or dimarzio

I have a MIA Fender P and I have change the pickups twice: from stock to SD Antiquity and now from SD Antiquity to Norstrand and ...I love it, the sound from the norstrand is what I was looking for: clear, deep bottom , old school, sounds like a P must sounds to me.

I also have a MIM P-bass. When I replaced the PU with a Nordstrand it made a big difference.
When I replace the pots and wiring with new stuff from Bayou Cables it made an even bigger difference. Good luck!
