umcoo Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Dont Ultra Jazzes just have 2 wires each? I think it's the Model J's that have 4, but I may very well be wrong. Or maybe I've not read the OP right?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOD2 Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 According to the DiMarzio website, those instructions are correct - [url="http://www.dimarzio.com/sites/default/files/diagrams/UltraJazz.pdf"]http://www.dimarzio.com/sites/default/files/diagrams/UltraJazz.pdf[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iiipopes Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I have an Ultrajazz in the bridge position of my custom fanned fret bass. Great pickup. Clarity. Punch. Drive. No noise. I think you will really enjoy them. This should be in the instructions that accompany the pickups when you receive them: [url="http://www.dimarzio.com/sites/default/files/diagrams/ModelJ.pdf"]http://www.dimarzio.com/sites/default/files/diagrams/ModelJ.pdf[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
