Description
If the standard Hot Jazz Bass pickups already feel like they’re pushing hard, the Quarter Pound takes that same true single-coil design and cranks the intensity further. Seymour Duncan built this neck pickup around chunky quarter-inch pole pieces and denser windings, giving it a noticeably fatter magnetic footprint under each string. The result is a pickup that hits harder without losing its low-end girth or note-to-note clarity.
- True single-coil construction with quarter-inch pole pieces
- Neck position pickup for Jazz Bass
- Reverse-wound for hum cancellation when paired with a matching bridge pickup
- Includes logo cover
Sonically, expect a full, aggressive response with strong sustain and a forward attack that cuts through a busy mix. It’s a natural fit for players working in blues, classic rock, garage, heavy rock, classic metal, and nu-metal territory — anywhere you need a J-bass to growl instead of just thump. Because it’s reverse-wound, running it alongside its bridge counterpart cancels hum and keeps your tone dead quiet even with both pickups blended wide open.
Whether you’re rebuilding a workhorse bass or chasing a more aggressive voice out of your Jazz Bass platform, the Quarter Pound neck pickup delivers serious output without sacrificing the character that makes a J-bass a J-bass.
