Description
The Bartolini P25C is the 5-string Original P2 soapbar, and it exists for one reason: to move air down where most pickups start to fall apart. This is the pickup Bartolini built its low-end reputation on, and the P25C carries that legacy straight into 5-string territory, giving your low B the same authority as the rest of the strings.
- Dual-coil construction cancels hum and noise, so you can push huge low and low-mid content without it turning to mush
- Voiced full and warm, leaning into a vintage character rather than a modern, scooped one
- Designed to bring out your bass’s natural voice instead of overriding it with an aggressive EQ curve
- Delivers exceptionally low tones with a clarity that’s rare at this end of the frequency spectrum
If your current pickups get boomy or indistinct the moment you dig in on the low strings, the P25C’s dual-coil design is the fix. It keeps the fundamentals intact and articulate, letting you hear pitch and definition even as the low end grows enormous. Players chasing that classic, woody, unmistakably vintage bass tone – full-bodied, round, never brittle – will find the Original P2 soapbar hard to beat.
A straightforward upgrade for anyone building a warmer, deeper, more vintage-correct 5-string bass tone from the ground up.
