DiMarzio DP148 BK

Ultra J-Style Pickup

DiMarzio was first to offer replacement pickups for electric-guitars and -basses and since the early 70s still holds its position with a successful combination of tradition and innovation.

If you love the jazz-bass sound but you would like to see more treble and volume but without side noise, with the J Ultra you'll get exactly that: the sound is fat, funky and somehow bigger!

The bridge-version can be very well combined with the P-Model or the P-Split.

Decent sound, great humcancelling
Kyuuga 15.04.2019
I picked these up for a PJ configuration bass because my P pickup was hot and I needed something with a little more "oomph". These did the job nicely but weren't that great.

The good:

- They're hum-cancelling;
- Powerful output and great midrange;
- Good build quality;

The bad:

- The sound is "meh". I've seen J bridge pickups sound much better (the fender custom shop for instance);
- The installation was VERY confusing. Dimarzio uses a different way to connect pickups so beware with the normal schematics you use.

Good for PJ, sounds dry
KeremKoseoglu 23.10.2019
It has a matching output to my standard Fender '62 Custom Shop pickup; but (like many other noiseless pickups) sounds a little dry to me.

Excellent Quality No My Sound
rafsanchz 26.09.2022
Excellent quality pickup, just not the sound that i was looking for. This pickup definitively sounds more like a humbucker than a single in my opinion.

Bass Pickup
Michael2070 11.03.2015
The DP148 is a 'potted' twin coil pickup (humbucker) made for basses with a 20mm string spacing - I fitted it to my acoustic bass in replacement of its piezo pickup; it is a good pickup - I will probably buy more of these.
