    $167 shipped for a set of Reed James RJ Neo Split Blade pickups. EMG 40 casing.

    These are staggered split coils, similar to a reverse P-bass. But inside an EMG 40 soapbar.

    Tone is punchy and crunchy. A great balance between vintage warmth and modern articulation. Everything is just "right". No harshness.

    The tone here is kind of addictive. These pickups should be used on a 5 string.

    Do you know if the magnets inside are set up as standard P or reverse P like the EMGs ?

    Pretty sure its setup like a Standard P

    I will triple check tonight. You can tell by lightly dragging a paperclip across the top of the pickup.

    Do you know or can you tell where the magnets are split? Just wanted to make sure it wasn't divided in the center where the A string would be on a 5er. Should be 3 and 2 setup

    Sorry, I forgot about this post.

    These are meant for a 5 string. Not an even split in the middle.
