What Pickups sound "exactly" like a 70's Fender Jazz...

Sign in to disble this ad
This has been discussed some but I just want as many opinions as possible. I know the question is somewhat rediculous but I think you know what I mean...

I am going for the tone that Aston Familyman Barrett got on the late 70's/early 80's albums (later Marley albums, Pablo Moses In the Future, Justin Hinds Travel with Love, Alpha Blonde with the Wailers...)

I am looking for something that is reasonably priced.

Thank You

Is it that bad or obvious of a question?

Please no one say 70's Fender jazz pickups

S.Duncan "antiquity" are vintage vibe.
I still like the Fender "Vintage Style" alnico single coils the best.
Those come stock on the HWY 1 basses, and I think on the Geddy bass as well..
