5 string jazz pups with balls

[Pappasgrind]

Having an awfully hard time deciding on jazz pups for my bacchus 5. I'm putting a j retro deluxe pre in it. I'm looking for loud beefy ballsy bowel shaking pups. My ideal tone would be something like Rex browns tone on down 2 (example 8 seconds in Invalid Link Removed ) any suggestions I know this is probably the most redundant pickup question on here. I'm even interested in having some made so don't rule out customs

Pretty sure Rex uses Spectors with EMGs (primarily).

He does and on that one particular he was using emg dc. Is there something similar to that In jazz pup form?

 

[BrBss]

Hard to say. You could stick with EMGs and go with the J5, but they won't sound the same since the DC are dual coil. Maybe a split coil like the Delano JMVC 5 FE would be closer.

Funny you say that cause this is pretty close to what I was talking about beefy e string Invalid Link Removed

I have a set of the Delano's in a Warwick and they do pretty well at the modern humbucker tone.

Damn I just spent my funds on the east pre I'll probably get the pickups in a few weeks I need to make sure they fit too

I'm considering emg jax pups now I don't think theyll fit though as my bass routes are close to 4 in this is starting to be a pain
