Fender Original Precision Bass Pickup (Black) Review

I've used lots of P-Bass pickups. I preferred the single coil first generation Precision until I tried this pickup in a Mexican P-Bass I bought. It sounded good before, but when I put this pickup in it the bass sounded much brighter and more alive. It is now my favorite gigging bass. This pickup has enough lows to get the job done like you'd expect with any P-Bass pickup but the big news here without a doubt is the punchy upper mids that so much reminds me of the bite of a single coil. This is the same pickup used in the '62 American Vintage Reissue Precision, which is a very premium USA bass.

This pickup comes with the brass shielding base plate and the weatherstripping foam already installed.

As already pointed out, this pickup gives your tone control something to do for a change!

Speaking of tone, a tone capacitor change from the standard 0.05 to 0.1uf was done on the '62 RI design to handle the brightness, however if you like the punchy tone there is no real need to change it and it is electrifying to say the least with the 0.05 cap that you find in about any other Fender passive Precision Bass. It sounds darn near active! I'm thinking maybe of trying something in between like a 0.068uf just to mellow it out a bit while still retaining some bark. You won't believe the upper mids or the output this pickup delivers.

A really simple install and a recommended upgrade, especially for Mexican made Fender P-Basses. This is a hotter yet much more versatile pickup than the Seymour Duncan SPB-3 "Quarter Pounder" that is so popular and yet it is about the same price. This to me is the better buy and I've used both.

The only thing I would not use this for is a P/J bass. I would not suggest using this in a P/J bass because it is so hot that it will totally dominate the Jazz pickup and you'll never hear the Jazz pickup at all.
