who makes Adjustable Pole Pickups?

Sign in to disble this ad
Besides Dimarzio (which sounded ok) and Q-Tuners (which I know nothing about), does anyone else know of companies that sell pickups for P, J, or MM with Individually Adjustable Pole Pieces?

Decided to just upgrade the bass I have instead of buying a new one and want to be able to adjust the poles for more even sounds with different strings/tunings.

Dimarzio Model J and Model P pups have that ability with an allen key.

The Q-Tuners are the most adjustable pickups I know of. If you want, you can even adjust the harmonic response for each string!

I've just installed a Q-Tuner BL-5 in my Pedulla Rapture 5 and plan to post a review shortly.
