Seymour Duncan Antiquity For Jazz Bass Neck Pickup

The Antiquity For Jazz Bass Neck Pickup delivers the warm, woody character of a vintage jazz bass without sacrificing modern hum-canceling performance. Built with period-correct construction methods and materials, this pickup responds smoothly across the fingerboard while maintaining the articulate midrange that defines classic jazz tones. It's engineered specifically for players seeking authentic vintage voicing with reliable silent operation in standard two-pickup configurations.

Vintage Construction & Materials

This pickup employs Alnico 2 magnets with push-back cloth wire and wax potting—the same materials and techniques used in original vintage instruments. The lacquered and wax-potted construction ensures tonal stability while the protruding magnets positioned at the top and bottom of the flatwork deliver smooth, even response across all four strings with traditional pole spacing.

Hum-Free Performance & Winding

RWRP (reverse wound/reverse polarity) construction eliminates hum when paired with a bridge pickup, allowing you to blend both pickups cleanly without noise. The pickup is wound "top going" with North polarity, ensuring proper phase alignment and tonal balance in your bass.
