Couple questions:

1. Would you consider a straight sale on one of them and if so how much?

2. Are they truly silent? I need something to replace a single coil bridge pickup in my Fender PJ that buzzes too much for me.

Thanks,

Hi. Have yet to install. Reported to be hum-less and and more potent. Best value to me is as trade. Could sell one for $35.

Got an ugly, but reputable high mass bridge you want to trade?

Put an end to the hum, people !!

My relic'ed jazz needs a chunk-o-somethin where the shiny
bent bridge was.

I have a high-mass bridge from a Blacktop Jazz. I don't have a pic, but here's a link to a Stratosphere part-out with a decent shot. Interested in trading for one Super 55? If so, I'm just a bit south of you in the Wilmington area. We could meet up for a hand-off and save each other the hassles of packing & shipping.

Oh, and for anyone else interested; I have one of these Super 55's in the bridge position of a P/J project I completed earlier this year. Great pickup…no hum and a bit "beefier" than a standard single-coil.

On a related note, reddog; I also have the wiring harness, pickups and pickguard from a Blacktop Jazz. (all collected separately for another P/J project that I've had second thoughts over) Let me know if some/any interest you, 'kay?

I'm PM'ing you the eBay link from when I bought the wiring harness & pickups from The Stratosphere. In the meantime, here's some pics I just clicked of the Blacktop bridge.

Thanks. Didn't plan on selling any.. Frankly hoped for trades but cash got me an Ebay bridge.
All came out in the wash.

Suspending transactions while I re-evaluate installation plans for 2 p/j and my jazz.

Thanks, everybody.

I just I stalled them in my jazz bass and they sound great. And I can truly say the are noiseless not a single sound.

Do you install a pair of 55's or did you mix and match?

As I'm more of a p/j guy, I'm pausing to consider keeping the individuals for p/j projects
and selling off the paired jazz set I have.

Curious how they compare to Area j's, Model J's, Barts...

I used a set. Bought a neck off Amazon. But I'm sure the dimarzio sound is hard to beat. But probably not noiseless
