replacement pickups

Hey all, I have a 2018 Fender Mustang PJ that I bought some years ago because I liked the sound Mustangs have. Thing is, it has a standard P-bass pickup rather than the smaller type most Mustangs have. I've been wanting to replace the pickups for a long time now but I'm a little stuck with what...

Hello, I'm hatching a little plan and am trying to reality check my idea/needs. I bought a set of Fishman Fluence Mike Inez soapbar bass pickups a while back, and never wound up putting them in my beater bass (too much work on the bass, bass too heavy anyway). I want to get an affordable bass...

G’day I recently became reacquainted with my first ever 5-string from twenty years ago, a cheap, Taiwan made Yamaha BB405L. She has since been converted to fretless and actually sounds quite good. I’m thinking of replacing her bridge, tuners and pickups. Does anyone have any recommendations for...

1 Jazz Bass Style & 1 Music Man Style pickup. both pickups are passive. free shipping included in the U.S.A. only.

Hey everyone, I'm doing my own independent research on this stuff and trying to gather information, but I figured I'd put an inquiry out there to the crowd and see what comes back as well. I have an early/mid 90s Carvin LB76 6 string (fretted). It's got a quilted maple top and ebony board...

Hey everyone! I’m new to replacing parts on my basses. I’m sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn’t find much info specific to what I have going on. I have a Spector Q5 with a BTS preamp. I want to replace the EMGHZ pickups with new EMGs. I can’t seem to figure out which models will...

Changing pickups is easy (well I only know how to remove and install pbass pickups... simple volume, tone, pickup, and ground the thang) But does anyone know how to replace soapbar emghzs and mediocre preamp? (the crappy pickups active basses use). I have a schector stiletto studio 5 active...

Hello, After looking at some threads it appears that the best choice for my Dean is some EMG Active Soapbar pickups. I will have to use the 5 string length, even though the guitar is a 4 stringer. My pickups are 4.25" so I will have to fab up a spacer, but that's ok. Anyway I found a set that...

How would one replace a 4 screw mount soapbar pickup with a same size soapbar pickup that has only 2 or 3 screw mounts?

My new custom P/J is a 5-string passive bass. The builder used a P-bass pickup where the top half (neck side) has 6-pole pieces, and the bottom half (bridge side) is a standard 4 pole piece. The jazz pickup at the bridge is a regular 5-pair of pole piece pickup. Ideally, I'm looking for a set...

Hi Everyone, I usually gig with 2 basses, a Kramer 6 string fretted bass, and a fretless Kramer Duke. I don't expect the Duke to have as much output as the 6 string (stocked with EMG's), but I would like to know if there are good replacement pickups for the Duke. Any reccommendations? Matthew...
