Combining the EMG-P and a single EMG-LJ unit in a complete assembly, the EMG-PJ electric bass pickup Set gives you improved flexibility for new dimensions of sound. The EMG-P has a full complement of low register power and the EMG-LJ provides a full midrange and extended high frequency response for a well defined attack. Used the pickup separately, or in combination, they offer a flexible selection of bass tones, accommodating both new and traditional bass playing styles. The result is pure capability; the capacity to produce everything from tight slap funk to smooth Motown groove, all with a sound that'll set you apart.

EMG-P
The active Bass pickup of choice since it was developed, the EMG-P uses short, squat coils that have very little resistance and plenty of inductance. Because the coils are not in series like the passive types, there's about twice as much low end as a passive pickup. Ceramic magnets are used to add clarity. Countless pros use it because they find it has a natural presence, powerful lows, punchy midrange, and superior definition.

Features hum-free noiseless operation with an even timbred response. In order to make the composite bass sound more natural, EMG added steel poles for warmth and midrange.

EMG-LJ Replacement Pickup
Has a full-bodied sound that adds new dimensions to your bass playing. Featuring a very low ratio of resistance to inductance that increases the low frequency response, the EMG-LJ still maintains the narrow aperture for that typical jazz bass tone.

These things are amazing. I put these things into a ESP B-50 and it went from a beginner's bass to being quite breathtaking. I'm running these through a crate combo amp and the tone can go from jazzy to rock with lots of range in between. These things can do anything!

These pickups came standard on my Spector and I have never would never even think to change them. Like the description says, these pickups are very versatile. I play a variety of styles and these accommodate all of them very well. You can get the deepest of lows then slide right up and get some beautiful highs. The mids are great in between as well. Countless people have told me how great my bass sounds, and I gladly attribute the success to these pickups. So if you are on the fence, deciding whether or no to buy this product, please don't hesitate. I guarantee that you will be happy with your purchase.

EMG ACTIVE PICKUPS

These pick-ups are a very good buy. I replaced the stock pickups that came in my fender jazz bass with these babies and they made it sound 10 times better. My sound comes through alot easier and I don't have to turn up as much. I strongly recommend these for any bassist.
