"Sounds great live, but noisy in studio"
Feature: NO HUM CANCELLING Overall: I have the Basslines Quarter Pound PJ set in my Yamaha RBX460, and the bridge J pickup is not hum cancelling. Therefore, it is all but useless to me when recording with this particular bass. The hum isn't terrible -- I can use this pickup if I'm playing live, where you have a little room for noise and hum. However, as a studio session player, I can't utilize the great J- tone this pickup has to offer because of the noise. If you have a Jazz bass, or a bass with 2 J-style pickups, the set (neck/bridge) IS hum cancelling via reverse polarity. In other words, when the neck pickup and bridge pickup are on full blast, the opposite winding and magnetism of the two pickups together kill the hum. However, just having the one pickup, noise-city with recording. If you're looking for a PJ set, you may want to consider EMG's active or passive, because the J is not noisy on its own like this one.

Sound: I own three of the pick up sets that Duncan offers , personally there the only pick ups that I'll buy , this one , makes the mids stand out and a boost in the output overall , I have also mixed pick ups , not telling how , if you want an old school sound buy the vintage, you may loose a little of bottom but I have enough amp to put it back , once again Zzounds was the only company I didn't have to wait to get it from . Thanks Zzounds . Feature: It comes with everything needed , except the obvious items Ease of Use: I'd listen to sound bites or call Seymore Duncan to find what your looking for most of the time the advertisements leave somethingto be desired. Quality: Will outlive your guitar Value: More than worth it ! Manufacturer Support: The best !
