mcnach Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) These came from a de luxe bass (I bought them as such here, I'll see if I can find the original thread). With black covers. £35 including delivery Edited January 18, 2016 by mcnach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameltoe Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 If it's from the Am. deluxe it could be the Noiseless pickup? I have one and they are fantastic IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a USA Precision, maybe it wasn't the DeLuxe? Are there other models that have a "special" name like that? Hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byo Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) My MIM Fender Reggie Hamilton J has a US P pup and a noisless J. Most probably it's a '62 or similar found on some of the MIM Specials from a few years ago. Still, a great price for a Fender pup.

[/quote] Weirdly from what I can gather only the Jazz pickups had the N3 Noiseless logo, but maybe it was only the J pickup that was noiseless? http://intl.fender.com/en-GB/basses/precision-bass/american-deluxe-precision-bass-ash-maple-fingerboard-natural-3-ply-bwb-pickguard/ Anyway, mine sounds great and is from the Am.deluxe, so this will too. Very clear and punchy. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcnach Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 I got it for my fretless, but got lazy and never fitted it. It has a Model P that I'm not entirely keen on as I wanted something a bit more 'traditional'... if nobody goes for it I should try it and see for myself what it sounds like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it's like an update on a classic P tone. I like it, whether it's the N3 noiseless or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
