Good pickups, nice tone.
Great sounding pickups, came with wiring diagram. They soldered in easily and seem to give a nice tone to my bass.

Great sound, consistent from set to set.
These pickups are the best upgrade for your P Bass. These are the popular pickups on the market. I have found that these are consistent from set to set.

Badass pickups
Get these for your bass if you really want some BASS. They're heavy, they growl, and they sound gorgeous. Super easy install as well

Amazing sounding Pickup
Swaped my Epiphone's Accu Bass factory pickup for this and the change was huge in sound, these sound incredible and are versatile when moving the tone.

Massive output, thumpy, and cheap
In very low cost, it provides a massive tone. Combined with flat wound strings it’s just super groovy and thumpy

These are great pickups. Clear, powerful, toneful. Replaced my stock Ibanez EX P/J pickups with these, and the difference is very apparent. More volume, but also more range of tone, not to mention fixing a microphonic issue with the old pups. I'm still fiddling with the setup, but really happy already. Mine came kinda beat up, the clamshells were beat and the pickup covers were scratched. I wouldn't have installed them on a customer's bass, because they didn't look new. However, Amazon was kind enough to give me a discount because of the damage, and as a result, I'm happy. The discount was big enough to cover the fact that when I touched the pups for the first time, the wire connecting the two neck pickups broke at the solder joint. After re-flowing all the joints, I installed with no further issues. I guess these just sat around getting beat up in the box for a while before they got to me. Oddly, the included screws did not work because the heads were too large and they interfered with the covers. The foam was also useless, but whatever. These are great pickups, sound great, look beefy. I like how the pole pieces are the same size as the fret marker dots, too... Mine don't say "BASSLINES", they say "Seymour Duncan", if you care about that. Overall, really happy.

I nice update for the right price
Amazing pickups, totally worth it. I installed them in a MIM Precision Bass and the sound changed for the best. More low end, punch and a very well defined high end without losing that P-Bass pickup sound that we all love. Definitely a more modern sound than a vintage one, but I found it to work great for blues and funk nonetheless. Even though it's the only thing I changed so far on that bass the tone control took a new life. Installation requieres you to know how to solder, it's just two cables and instructions with diagrams are provided. Then it's just a matter of set-up the height of the pickups, I found this ones are more "hot" than the original ones so I have them a little lower than I used to. All in all a great upgrade for not a lot of money.

Turn your budget Squier Precision Bass into a full blown Fender Precision for a very small cost.
These Seymour Duncan 1/4 Pounders make a Squier P Bass sound like you have just spent 2k on a proper Fender, i honestly cant believe how much of a difference they have made, nice twangy high notes with tons of sustain, turn the tone control to the lowest position and the low notes are seriously Bassy, perfect for Dub Reggae. The amount of extra control with the tone is incredibly. Very very easy to fit, best upgrade ever. BUY THEM!!!

What a big difference it made to my MIM P-Bass
Like most people, I was confused as to how I would upgrade my MIM P-Bass pickup. Meaning, there is no lack of choice when it comes to after market pickups for this style of bass guitar. As I never found the stock pickup all that good, as it lacked tonal range etc. I watched all the YT comparison videos and read the reviews here on Amazon (check out Manotick StringWorks - Fender Precision Bass gets new Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound SPB-3 Pickups... nice upgrade!) and made the choice. Glad I did, no regrets. At around $150, I feel was a very good and reasonable upgrade for this Bass. The swap out/in installation was very easy as there are only two wires that need to be soldered, and the 4 screws to mount the new pickup. Everything fit perfectly. If you have an after market pick guard, you may need to do some minor scaping if the fit is too tight. Happily in the Low-End.

Offenbar war nicht der Bass das Problem
Das war bei mir einer dieser Umbauten, bei denen man nach dem ersten Ton kurz überprüft, ob man wirklich nur die Pickups gewechselt hat. Eingebaut wurden die Quarter Pounds in einen alten Squier P Bass, der vorher klanglich irgendwo zwischen dumpf und höflich desinteressiert lag.... Danach plötzlich Druck, Präsenz und dieses direkte P Bass Brett... Natürlich macht ein Pickup aus einem mittelmäßigen Instrument nicht automatisch einen Custom Shop Bass mit göttlicher Aura. Wenn die Basis stimmt und die Elektronik der Flaschenhals ist, können die Quarter Pounds aber einen erstaunlich großen Unterschied machen. Für mich ein richtig starkes Upgrade für günstige und mittelpreisige P Bässe. Für mich genau die Art Upgrade, bei der man sich danach fragt, warum man es nicht früher gemacht hat....

Sonido con punch!!
Muy contento con la adquisición de estas pastillas para un Ibanez Rbx200. Las pastillas de serie ya sonaban muy apagadas, por lo que al cambiar la electrónica con estas pastillas ha pasado a una muy buena vida. Ideal para estilos agresivos más tipo hard rock. Buena definición y pegada!
