Make Your Five String Bass Sound Like a 1963 Fender Jazz

Aguilar introduce the AG 5J-60 pickups 02-Sep-10
Make Your Five String Bass Sound Like a 1963 Fender Jazz


Modeled after a mid 60's Jazz Bass pickup, Aguilar say that the AG 5J-60 pickups bring the dynamic and sought-after tone of a 1963 Fender Jazz bass to today's five string basses. The AG 5J-60 uses all the period correct parts, including Heavy Formvar wire and Alnico V magnets.

Aguilar tell us that they have developed a proprietary winding pattern to give these pickups great string-to-string consistency while sounding full and articulate. They say that the pickups complement any bass and are a great match with Aguilar's OBP on-board preamps.

The AG 5J-60 calibrated pickup set is a direct replacement in the Fender Jazz V and many other 5 string basses. Single Neck and Bridge pickups are also available.

Specs:

  • Wire: Heavy Formvar, 42 gauge

  • Magnets: Alnico V

  • Cable: Single conductor, cloth-covered

Available as:

  • AG 5J-60S: Set of neck and bridge pickups

  • AG 5J-60N: Neck pickup only

  • AG 5J-60B: Bridge pickup only

Pricing and Availability:
TBA
