Description
The Seymour Duncan Apollo is built for players who love the growl of a Jazz Bass but not the 60-cycle hum that tends to come with it. This 4-string set uses a linear pickup design to cancel noise while keeping the tonal personality that makes J-style basses so versatile in the first place.
Where traditional single-coil Jazz pickups can sound a little soft or scooped in the mids, the Apollo set pushes back with extra punch and articulation. Notes stay defined string to string, so slap passages, fingerstyle runs, and pick attack all come through with more clarity and less mush — especially useful in a busy mix where a bass needs to cut through without turning up excessively.
Because it’s a direct-fit Jazz Bass set, dropping the Apollo pickups into your existing 4-string J-bass doesn’t require any routing or hardware changes — just a straightforward pickup swap for players chasing a cleaner, more modern low end.
- Noiseless, hum-canceling linear pickup design
- Set of two pickups for 4-string Jazz Bass
- Adds punch and articulation versus traditional J-style pickups
- Direct fit for standard Jazz Bass routing
If your Jazz Bass has always had great vibe but a little too much hiss and hum riding along with it, the Apollo set is a quiet upgrade with a loud personality.
