Jazz bass pickups opinions !

[sifi2112]

Hi all,

I'm looking at getting some single coil jazz pickups & ideally want the growliest but not wanting to spend boutique prices if possible. Bass is 4 string alder/maple. I used to have two jazz basses, one with Nordstrand Big Singles & one with Wizard 84's & loved both, however not in my budget

Also, I plan on wiring these in parallel (no blend) to single vol pot, so 250 or 500k ?

Cheers

Si

Years ago Bass Player magazine did a J-bass pickup shootout. It must be out there.

Seymour Duncan Hot Stack is always a good one, though not sure if they`re any lower priced than Wizzards or Nords.

How about hand wound pups from Jess Loureiro Pickups. I've not tried the jazz pups, but the split coil pups are really good.
