    1 set of Reed James RJ Neo A5 for Fender Jazz 5 or any bass with the same pickup routes. $185, shipped.

    They are like new, never used or installed. I simply took them out of the box and handled them a bit.

    These are said to be completely noisless. Are a neodynium/Alnico 5 hybrid design. reputed for that Vintage roundess + modern dynamics and punch.
    Neodymium bass pickups


    Buy my Fender American Deluxe Jazz 5, to go along with them!

    I originally got these, because there is a nice crunch in there, which appeals to me. Maybe you can hear it, too, in these videos.

    (not me. remember, I didn't install these!)

    Are these hum cancelling?

    Just to confirm some of the hypes around these, I have a set of them on my Eliezer Lara Custom Jazz and they rock like hell. I bought mine a couple of years ago, I installed them on the bass and I will never remove them unless I have too and if I will, I'll replace them with the same without hesitation. They are noiseless, punchy, tight, clear for modern sound and slapping, very articulate for finger style and with a pick also. I recommend them for sure.

    I too have a set of these installed in my Wilkins VRB5 and they are amazing. Totally silent with great punch and tonal character.

    Jim is the "man" when it comes to hum cancelling pickups.
