DiMarzio DP122 Model P-Bass Pickup
Dial in punchy midrange and get rid of pesky hum by installing DiMarzio DP122 Model P pickups in your bass.
Overview
Breathe life into any bass by replacing its stock pickup with a DiMarzio DP122 Model P bass pickup. This hum-cancelling two-piece pickup brings big, punchy sound to Fender Precision Bass-style basses. The DiMarzio Model P accurately reproduces the sound of your bass with added gain and solid tone. DiMarzio Model P pickups cut through the band without sacrificing bottom-end power. Gutsy mid-range provides growl when the bass is pushed hard. Combine the DiMarzio Model P with a bridge position DiMarzio Model J or Ultra Jazz to achieve any tone from a tight mid range punch to a warm bottom-end with bright, clear attack.

"Balanced Pickups"

These pups have been around forever, so that tells you they're good. They have a very mid-rangy sound, but very balanced, which lets me cut through the rest of the band. They have individually adjustable-height poles, so you can fine-tune each string for volume balance.
I've owned the Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounds (which are voice to scoop the mids) and they got very boomy on the bottom end. The Model Ps sound more natural to me. The key to good EQing is to have all the frequencies at the source (the bass) then boost or cut with the amp's EQ. The Dimarzio DP122 Model P gives me all the frequencies my bass naturally produces. Also, If you like a touch of natural overdrive on a tube head, the Model P's mid-range will get you there.
I got the Creme DP122, which looks awesome (to me). People either love or hate the creme, but they always remember it. The Model Ps really make make my bass look and sound unique.
