Noiseless Jazz pickups recommendations

[Duroc17]

I have a passive Fender Japanese Jazz bass circa 1998- 2000 and it’s ace but I get single cool hum unless both pickups are on full. I like the sound at about 90% neck and 60% bridge - but hate the hum - 100% on both is just not doing it for me. 
 

Looking at up to £200 to replace. What recommendations do you have. 
 

I play in an Echo & The Bunnymen tribute now and Les had a 70s MIA Jazz - where as mines a 62 RI but no too bothered about getting 100% his tone - just freedom from 60 cycle hum

The only non Fender jazz pickups I’ve had were Seymour Duncan Hot Stacks, no hum and a bit more oomph to them than regular jazz pickups.

Try EMG, they do work really well with Jazz Basses and they are really dead silent, but you'll need a battery.

 

Otherwise the Fender Noiseless are very good vertical humbuckers with a tone really close to a single coil.

Was looking at the Gen4 Fenders as I don’t fancy a battery really. Cheers

The cheapest seems to be Thomann for these pickups.

 

Excellent choice that said.

Gone for the Gen4 noiseless fenders £151 with delivery- watch a few videos - look like what I need.

Actually in the end went for the colbalt bass one from Fender - after again watching videos
