Martin E Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Specifically those with allen key adjustable pole pieces. I see them crop up for sale from time to time at reasonable prices but can't find out anything about them. A long discontinued model I presume but what were they like and what model were they? Anyone got any ideas? just wondering whether they're worth a punt. Cheers Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mybass Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 I’ve never known of a SD jazz pup with Allen key pole pieces, only DiMarzio jazz and P bass pups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin E Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 There's one on ebay at the moment... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/176427213694?itmmeta=01J0H7XEX1XAXRTR26556T1ZEN&hash=item2913e1a37e:g:rF0AAOSw-ZxmWalq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To my knowledge SD use rod magnets not ceramic bars. Not claiming expert status though. Overall, I don't recall them using adjustable pole pieces in their bass pickups.

Martin E Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 Thanks, I think you're both probably right. I've never seen an SD like this hence my query. This is the second one I have seen for sale recently but on reflection maybe it was a different advert for the same one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 If it's not here I wouldn't buy it, especially if the price is "reasonable" https://www.seymourduncan.com/products/pickups/bass/jazz-bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 The seller is also including a blank pickup cover, most likely the original one. Red flags all over really. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/Q-gAAOSw1HpmWalu/s-l140.webp Not a Dimarzio either, what could it be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Well whatever that pickup is I've just spotted its twin here: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/483164507580917/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
