I'm thinking about putting these in a old p bass I have while I got it down putting a new neck on it.I've never used them was just wondering what you all thought about them.

I like them. Keep them low away from the strings if you want to tame the aggressive nature of the QP. That gives me a vintage flavor with a little more girth than one of the typical vintage wound pickups.

I'm happy with my PJ set. You do need to dial in the height.

I read this and with advise from Johnson I lowered my Jazz 1/4 pounders and it sound awesome.I kept moving up and down for an half hour or so playing scales up and down the neck and found my sweet spot.

come to think of it, i recently put up a demo of my pbass when it had spb3's with d'addario chromes. a few DI samples of finger/pick/slap on a couple riffs with different tone settings.
