Fender 75RI replacement pickups?

[nemo]

Hi, I have put a set of Seymour Duncan Antiquities II into my 70's Jazz clone couple of weeks ago only to find that there is too much bottom for my needs..

I have thought of putting there CS60 or 75RI pickups instead. While there is handful of info on CS60, the search feature does not allow me to find anything about 75RI pickups.

Do you have any experience with these 75RI's? Thanks a lot!

I have a MIJ 75 reissue Jazz Bass that I have modified. I currently have bartolini single coil jazz Pups and a bartolini 3 band eq wired vol-treble bass stack-push pull mid-blend.

I think the bartolini are the best pickups money can buy. I think they are considerably better than anything you can get from fenders pickup lineup.

This is a matter of taste, I know the sound of Bartolinis and this is not I would want in the typical 75 jazz bass - think Rhonda Smith - she has stock 75RI, I like that sound (Prince - Live at Aladdin DVD).
I'am just not sure about CS60 vs 75RI pups comparison.

Lindy Fralin makes the J set they use on the Lakland J bass copies, I thought they sounded great, and if anything are a little overly bright (which you can fix with a 1/4 twist of the tone knob).

I also really like the basic basslines Js that are in my Hamer USA Cruise. I think they are the "vintage" model (not antiquity).
