Description
The STK-J1 is Seymour Duncan’s answer to the age-old Jazz Bass problem: how do you keep the vintage single-coil snap and low-end warmth without dragging along a wall of 60-cycle hum every time you step near a dimmer switch? Their solution is a stacked coil design that cancels noise internally while preserving the character that made the original Fender Jazz pickup a bass legend.
Voiced after the definitive ’60s single coils, this neck pickup delivers a rounded low-end push, a midrange that stays present without turning harsh, and enough top-end clarity to keep your lines articulate in a mix. It’s built as a direct, noiseless swap for the neck position on any 4-string Fender American Standard Jazz Bass, so no routing or modification headaches.
Under the hood you’ll find alnico 5 rod magnets, Forbon flatwork, and 4-conductor leadwire for flexible wiring options, all vacuum wax potted to shut down microphonic squeal at higher gain or stage volume. Every unit is hand assembled in Seymour Duncan’s Santa Barbara, CA shop.
