bubinga5 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) WOW ive seen some stinky poo reviews before but these guys are literally on drugs. What are they talking about.? 4 coil Lakland MM pickup. I want one. That guy on the right is either drunk or has just taken a hit from a bottle bag of skunk.

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Are we sure it isn't a clever parody video? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBass Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 We have got used to some pretty slick bass reviews on YouTube over the last few years: first impressions, how it feels, hardware and electronics, tone...with fingers, pick, slapped, all with set adjustments to the EQ or tone knob and then a conclusion. Lobster, Johnny Dibble, The bass channel etc. They are all amateurs, but very professional amateurs. Yandas Music is a shop in Nebraska, which probably makes Norfolk look sophisticated. The bloke with the Liverpool cap is a local Christian Pastor, just in case you were wondering why you had never heard of him. They really could do with planning their content before they shoot any more videos. I know I like the look of the jazz basses but I have no idea what they sound like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I think someone has been drinking. Who are Yandas Music? Not someone that I have heard of. TBH there must be better reviews than this on YouTube, you were just unlucky to find one so uninformative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartolini has been making Quad Coil (4 coils if you prefer) pickups in a few different formats including MM for decades... And the Lakland is using one as stated here in their presentation: https://www.lakland.com/product/usa-series-55-94/ Fact is it's indeed a long boring useless video for sure and the guy on the right is not 100% clean. That said, the Andertons videos are as useless especially when Nathan starts turning all the knobs of what they are testing just to make sure they ... turn (I have no other explanation 🤦🏻♂️ ), but he and Lee are both excellent players, which makes a difference.

So each humcancelling pup has 2 coils and there are 2 of each of these pups in a case... ergo there are 4 coils. They are calling it exactly what it is; a QUAD coil pick-up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if you want the explanations, it's not what you wrote as the 4 coils are especially designed to have the two P-Bass pickups types, plus any J-Bass configuration (parallel, series, outer or inner) or anything always hum-cancelling plus the 4 coils wired in parallel or series, or 2 coils in parallel and 2 coils in series or the opposite, so a real 4 coils pickup, sorry. These Quad Coil pickups are in fact very versatile and have ... 4 coils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a couple of Schaller Double Js from the 80s that are the same, so not a new concept as you said. The SIMS pickups work the same they just have the electronic switching incorporated in them.
