NORDSTRAND Big Split 5 String Bass Guitar Pickup – Neck

The Big Split tone is one of both precision and muscularity. Its nature is of a sort of hybrid P/J character, only it delineates a smoother, stronger, and richer tonal palette. Given the extrapolated personality of its P/J sound, the Big Split is a top notch choice for both fretless playing and the Jazz Bass-on-steroids tone purist. The Big Split uses the same angled magnet layout as out the Big Single, only the coil is split. Through fitting as much wire as we could between two coils under a soapbar cover, we have come up with a tone that is fat, clean, and stylistically game changing. Neck- and bridge pickups have differently wound coils and pole piece spacing, optimized for the respective position.
