[Bassfingers]

NOW SOLD 
 

Up for sale, this nice Lindy Fralin Split ’51 Single P-Bass pickup. 

 

This is the 5% overwound model, which yields a slightly thicker, darker tone. 

 

Bought new from Bass Direct for £135

 

I had this on an old Lawsuit bass and it sounded lovely. I swapped it out when I sold the bass, which has left this pickup without a home. It's a real shame not to use it.

For more "era authenticity", the A and D poles are slightly raised. 

 

NOW £80 posted in the UK.

 

 

For what it's worth, this is the Blurb from the Lindy Fralin web site...

 

Our Lindy Fralin Split ’51 P-Bass is a great single-coil tone replacement for 50’s and reissues. Loud and clear, with no hum. Using USA-Made parts and made by hand, our pickups sound leaps and bounds better than the stock pickups. This is the Hum-Cancelling version of our ’51 P-Bass.

Our combination of authentic 50’s P-Bass tone and a Left-Right Coil Design give you killer tone, with no hum! With no modification necessary, the Fralin Split ’51 will drop right in to your era-authentic bass or re-issue with ease. This pickup will fatten up your bass up a bit, too. The Fralin Split ’51 is our hum-cancelling version of our Fralin ’51 P-Bass Pickup.

 

• Era-Authentic 50’s P-Bass Tone, No Hum
• Split-Coil Design
• 42-Gauge wire
• AlNiCo V Magnets

 

SOUND:

Warm, rich, full, with no hum. The top end is warm and round, the the low end is extremely full, deep, and rich. The Fralin Split ’51 is the perfect pickup for those who want era-authentic 50’s P-Bass tone with an added hint The low end is extended deeper than before – with some AlNiCo V sweetness added to it. By adding a second coil, we were able to achieve a completely silent operation, with a hint of fatness added to it. The “pushed-in-by-hand” AlNiCo V Magnets are just part of the equation that gives this pickup such a smooth tone.
