Frequently Asked Questions
They offer a similar tonal character but with reduced hum thanks to the split coil construction; expect slightly less output and a subtly different feel.
They adhere to standard P-Bass dimensions, but always double-check your bass's cavity size before ordering to ensure a proper fit.
While usable, the softer treble response and medium output might not provide the 'click' and articulation favored by many slap players.
