Description
If you love the growl of a Precision Bass but want more low-end authority and low-mid punch, the Bartolini 58CBP is built to deliver exactly that. It’s a direct replacement for the standard Fender P Bass pickup shape, sized for 5-string basses and voiced in Bartolini’s “Classic Bass” (CB) series.
- Split-coil design, wired as the traditional two offset halves
- The two coil sections overlap by 3/4″ (19mm), matching standard P-style stagger
- Passive circuit with an extended, more resonant frequency window than vintage-style units
- Added clarity and “air” up top, without thinning out the lows or low-mids
- Fully cast in epoxy to kill microphonics and unwanted feedback
What sets the Classic Bass series apart from a garden-variety P pickup is headroom in the frequency response — you still get that unmistakable split-coil grunt, but with more detail cut through in a band mix and a low end that feels bigger without turning to mud. It’s a favorite among players and repair techs who want to upgrade a stock P Bass without changing its personality, just sharpening it.
Drop it into any 5-string bass routed for a standard P pickup shape and expect that familiar Precision voice — just with more lows, more low-mid weight, and cleaner top-end resolution.
