The use of a ceramic magnet produces even more powerful bass than conventional passive pickups. It produces a distinct tone perfect for rock. Another appealing feature is its low noise. Recommended for those looking for a modern PB type pickup.
This is a vintage type from the SPB series, which is the basis of the P-type, aiming for the sound of 1957 when dual coils were introduced. The magnet is Alnico 5, reproducing the powerful sound of a P-bass. The tone is not particularly colored, and the entire frequency range is flat. This gives the bass a rich, warm feel.
Based on the vintage-toned SPB-1, this model features increased coil turns and almost doubled output, resulting in a tone with a more emphasized midrange.
Featuring a thick 1/4-inch diameter Alnico 5 magnet, this model produces a clear, well-defined tone from high to low frequencies. The output is slightly higher than the SPB-1. This is a popular model with many HR/HM fans!
