Nordstrand NJ4 Set '70's style wind
We commissioned the folks at Nordstrand to replicate a vintage '70's Fender Jazz Bass' pickups and we were so happy with the results we are offering them here for sale. Very cool authentic top end!

Does anyone have these in their Jbasses? I'm looking for a 70's sound and I figure these would do the job just fine.

Hi Tom, we currently sell those for $169. They are meant to replicate the 70's jazz bass pickups which are known for the Sweet Sizzley top end (al a Marcus Miller) sound. These have that type of top end but are not as "skinny" as the originals and are more even string to string. They are sweeter and a little less clanky in the top end, and have a little less upper mid "grind" than regular NJ4's, while still retaining nice low end. All in all they are awesome sounding pickups. I have a 5 string set in my Nordy and my partner Kevin has a 4 string set in his Nordy-fied 71 Jazz bass and we both love them.

Now I don't know too many tone terms (ex: muddy, skinny, etc.) so can anyone decipher this or give me their experience with these?
