Description
The Quarter Pound PJ set pairs two of Seymour Duncan’s most brute-force bass pickups into one P-J package: a Quarter Pound P-bass in the bridge and a Quarter Pound Jazz Bass neck pickup, both wound hot and voiced for maximum push.
The P-bass side leans on oversized pole pieces and a widened magnetic field to stretch the frequency response, digging out extra midrange presence and a punchy, full-bodied low end without turning muddy. The Jazz neck pickup matches that energy with dense coil winding and big-diameter poles, giving you snappy attack, long sustain, and a genuinely aggressive edge — the kind of output that cuts through a wall of amps rather than hiding behind them.
Together they’re built for players who dig in hard: think classic rock, hard rock, punk, grunge, and metal, though the tonal range stretches well beyond heavy genres into general live and studio work. This is the same pickup DNA that’s powered bassists in Blink 182, Alien Ant Farm, Rise Against, Bad Religion, and Smashing Pumpkins.
