markdavid Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Anyone used one of these pickups , am hearing mixed opinions on them , some say they are nothing special , other people say they are very nice pickups. I am currently trying to decide between these pickups, the wizard 64's , the Fender original 62 and the Fender custom shop 60's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBod Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I put a set on a J bass a few months ago - very nice, but also traditional. Output is fine, sound is what I'd expect from a good passive J. If you're wanting something brighter/more aggressive/slappy then its worth looking around for "overwound," split coil or active options. One thing is to decide if you can live with single coil hum - it bugs me, but I love the trad J bass sound (or souped up with Aguilar outboard preamp). One day I'll explore the various split coils that claim to have the same sound...it never stops, does it? BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
