Bartolini 5-String 2J Squared MK Soapbar (MK52J-B), Neck, Black

We started with 2 of our hugely popular 9J passive hum-cancelling Jazz bass pickups and installed them in a soapbar shell. With soapbar mounting in a nice squared shape instead of mounting ears, we created the 2J Squared Quad coil pickup. We made the J pickups work together as a dual humbucker or as a J-bass when coil-split. When wired as a series humbucker, they are big and growly with high output. When wired as a parallel humbucker, they are fat and round but with focus - like when you have both volumes on full on a J-Bass. When wired to coil cut, they are precise and clear. And they are hum-free in all setups which can be easily chosen when you install a toggle switch. They can be used without a switch, but you get a lot more flexibility if you have one. Because 2J Squared are have blades instead of poles, they work with a range of string spacings. They are internally shielded and are wired with shielded cables. These pro-level pickups are fully hum-killing even on the noisiest stage or studio. They are sweat-proof and won't make horrible noises when you hit them with the strings. We make them special for neck and bridge positions so they balance well when blended together or played separately.

• Due to the manufacturing process, the plastic housings of Bartolini pickups may show minor processing or handling marks. The cable ends of some pickups may also be pre-soldered. These characteristics do not constitute grounds for complaint or reason for return.
• Note: The return and refund policy does not apply to pickups if their cables have been cut or other damage affecting the condition of the goods is present.

Note: Replacement pickups may differ slightly in shape and dimensions from the original pickups. Adjustments may be necessary. It is recommended that you check the schematic drawings carefully. Deviations in the size and shape of the pickups do not constitute grounds for complaint.
