The DiMarzio Area J Bridge Bass Pickup is not loud, but it has a very focused attack, so it has power where it counts – at the center of the tone.
Have you been waiting for a bass pickup that sounds like a vintage J Bass® pickup and cancels hum? Your wait is over. Bass pickups are usually described with aggressive terms such as “amazing punch” and “thundering lows”, but that’s not the sound of vintage J Bass® pickups. They’re all about warmth, sustain, and a clean, singing tone. The DiMarzio Area J Bridge Bass Pickup captures all of those qualities. It is not loud, but it has a very focused attack, so it has power where it counts – at the centre of the tone. The lows are very clear and clean, and the highs are both smooth and open-sounding. Reduced magnet-pull and the included 4-conductor wiring allow both series and parallel humbucking modes.
