uk_lefty Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I've got a Fender MIJ 1970 Precision reissue (alder bodied). It's a cracking bass that I really enjoy playing. It currently has a Steve Harris signature pickup that I really like and appreciate however I wouldn't mind getting it closer to the authentic sound for the year. Question is, which pickup would give me that tone? I've had a look at Fender and Seymour Duncan but suspect there are others out there.... Unless this was an era of "generic p bass tone" rather than anything distinct! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I’d try Hot Rod (who used to be Wizard) their 70s style pickup was very similar to my 70s Precisions that I had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Browning Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I used to replace the stock pickup on my Japanese basses with Kent Armstrong Alnico vintage Pbass pickups. They sounded just right to my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
