Mexican Preci

I used this Pickup to replace the stock pickups in my mexican fender precision bass. Replacing them was farely easy, remove the pickguard and the old pickups, solder them in, adjust the height and put the pickguard back in place, that is it.

I give the sound 3 stars because it's not a real improvement to the old ones. Nevertheless, the quarterpound delivers what it promisses. Heavy bottoms, singing mids and (if you really crank them up) defined hi's.

It probably comes down to my bass, which is not really a hight quality product and is thus not able to really support the pickup, maybe this thing would work better in a American Performer (or something in that range).

Good upgrade for a lower class bassguitar

I am happy with my purchase of these pickups, they are versatile and they have power. It is currently used in a bleus, and rock setting, but it can produce nice jazzy tones as well.

I bought these as replacement for a low end bass and it sounds much better. The immidiate difference wasn't huge. But the tone is rich with more sustain and most iportantly it sits good in a mix. This is where i noticed most of the improvement.

Installing the pickups was easily done the wiring daigram is clear.

This product doesnt have any cons.

Superb growl and mid-range freshness with balanced bass.
It's hum-free, if using it alone and got output that will boost your ego further and sets the soloist guitar-hero wannabe behind you as you punch through the soundwaves.
If you need to bring actual power to a cheap instrument - this is the way to go.

Confusing label on the plastic coating: everybody kept asking me why, how and where I got a Line6 bass-pickup - so I got rid of it, since it scared people off from hiring a player with NYC HiTec gear to a small fraction gig.
