Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This Bartolini P4 is a solid choice for 6-string players wanting a vintage, warm neck tone. The unique magnet combination offers a distinct character—it’s a great option for classic rock, Motown, or funk players looking for a less aggressive, more organic sound. Just be aware it’s a passive pickup, so you'll need a pre-amp if you're running high gain.
