I’m aware there have been a multitude of threads about ‘which EMG pickups’ to use. Here is my 5 cents… I own a set of JV, JVX, and most recently the JAX Jazz pups. Honestly, the JAX sound magnificent to my ears! A lovely mid growl, especially from the first few frets of the A string. I’m...

Thank you for your response.

Thanks Aidil - I appreciate your reply!

Hi fellow bassists I have a pair of Bartolini MK5CBC pickups arriving shortly which I’ll be installing into my Cort B5 bass (along with a Bart preamp). Now I can do the standard install, or, using a DPDT switch also have the option of inner coil and outer coils. Has anyone done something...

Thanks for your reply. I’ll be off to pick one up in the morning. Much appreciated!

Hi there I’ve also wondered this! I like the YYZ but wonder if the DI-2112 will take it a little further in terms of sound. The XLR and other cosmetic additions are a bonus too of course.
