Delano pickups experience?

[BasistaFunky]

Hello There guys, I wanna ask you all does any one of you had an experience with Delano pickups? On my bass I installed an Delano PC 4 HE/M2 reversed P neck position and JC 4 HE/M2 J bridge position both they are passive. When I plugged and hear them directly into my amp without any EQ, compressors, effects etc. yes they really sound bright and fresh, but one thing that I notice when I hear and compare them with the sound of my other bass is that these pickups they have a quet low output signal, can anyone tell me did they really have an low output signal or not, and what is your experience with Delano pickups?

Thank you. 🙂

My delano  pickups have a good strong output, they are passive and I only have the amplifier input (Markbass Marcus Miller amp) at about a third / 9 o clock. the usual is to check the wiring between pots and output....are they on separate volume controls, if so you could try just one pickup out to see if levels return to normal. Did you buy them new or secondhand....Delano would probably be able to help you if you call them.

As above you should have a nice strong output

I have Delano PC 5 AL/M2 in my Jake 5 and the output is great.  I like the pickup a lot, like an angry P bass.

I have the SBC and JSBC sets in two Maruszczyk basses. Compared to stock pickups on a Japanese Fender Precision, they are noticeably quieter. Compared to a Nordstrand set in a US Fender Jazz, they’re about the same.

I have their P, J and MMs in various basses – output is as expected, good and strong, no noticeable difference in output compared with other pickups I use
