Combining two of Nordstrands popular bass pickups to create a set for PJ basses, the NPJ4 set will make your PJ bass sound better than you thought possible! This set consists of an NP4 pickup in the neck position and an NJ4 pickup in the bridge position. You'll get great old school tones from the NP4 and a good full growly tone from the NJ4.
NP4 Information:
This is a faithful reproduction of one of the most famous pickups in the world. It will give a very big and full tone with the slightly hollow grind that the originals are known for. Includes black covers (exposed pole pieces).
These are vintage single coil J style pickups made with 60’s era correct Heavy Formvar wire and Alnico V magnets. In winding these pickups we use a simulated hand wound pattern that lowers the resonant peak of the pickup resulting in a pleasing yet present high end. These pickups have a very even and full sound with that snap and grind associated with the classic basses of that time. This set includes the two single coil pickups and black covers (exposed pole pieces).
