Ultra boutique P bass pickups

Thanks for the information. I just emailed Arcane directly to see if they had any other suggestions / guidance. I’ll keep you posted!
That'd be great. I'm not seeing these anywhere else. Might have to ask the one guy I know in L.A. to make a trip for me.

That's where I got my '65. 97 units in stock as of now.
EDIT: It seems like my link and the link you posted earlier are similar. One is GuitarBassPro and the other is BassExchange, but they are both by "The Amp-Shop". Either way, there is a bunch of these in stock online and are easy to get a hold of.

I had to go to my PC to order. On my phone it only had an option to pick up in store. Thank you.
Arcane 65L =12.5kOhm
Arcane 65 =10.8kOhm
These are the published reading and will differ slightly.
I was wondering about that, the sites that did come up with a search took forever to load on my phone. Good to know that you had better luck with your PC. Please let us know how you like it once it arrives and you get it installed!
Hey, guys. I've just bought the Arcane Experience P pickup but AmpShop, by mistake, sent me the 65L set, instead of the regular one..
They would exchange it for the 65 EXP if I don't like it. I didn't installed it so far.
My question is: Apart from a slight hotter output, what should I expect from this set?

You might be the first to get one.
Right, of course. I'll install it today and try to write something about it.
Thank you very much.
If its hotter, that usually means more low mids and less highs, from what info i gathered on TB over the years. p
Yeah, I'm aware of that, thank you.
The instrument is a swamp ash 78 PBass. Very light with a open timbre. The original pickup is bright but weak, so I replaced it with a np4, by Nordstrand. I like the way it sounds with the np4 but maybe it'll get along well with Arcane 65L.

I'm just guessing based on my little bit of experience with the EXP but I found the EXP to be very clean and clear so I would think the L would be a fatter sound and still quite clear.
