They retain that classic growl but with added punch and clarity – perfect for rock, funk, or anything needing a little extra drive.

Frequently Asked Questions
They’re similar, but the highwound construction adds about 10% more wire, resulting in a hotter output and a slightly more aggressive low-end.
Yes, they use the standard P-Bass mounting pattern and spacing, so they should drop right in without needing any routing or adjustments.
They'll work, but the increased output and slightly tighter low-end might make the 'thump' less pronounced; more suited to a fingerstyle or pick attack.
