Description
The Bartolini 9J1-L/LN gives Jazz Bass players a passive pickup set that leans into the low-end punch and rounded low-mid growl that made the original J-Bass tone a benchmark. Built with a dual in-line split coil layout, this set keeps that classic Jazz Bass string separation and clarity while pushing the tonal center toward something thicker and more authoritative than a stock pickup typically delivers.
Both the neck and bridge units in this set measure 3-3/4″ long, matching the long-length dimensions found in the original J-Bass. Bartolini casts each pickup in epoxy, sealing the coils against microphonics and unwanted feedback so you get a quiet, stable output whether you’re tracking in the studio or pushing volume on stage.
Before you order, take a moment to measure your existing pickups. Jazz Bass pickup lengths vary between neck and bridge positions depending on the model and era of your instrument, so confirming physical dimensions against the 3-3/4″ spec here will save you a headache at install time.
