Seymour Duncan Apollo J-Bass, 5 Str, 70/74 Set Pickup

Seymour Duncan Apollo J-Bass, 5 String, 70/74 Set Pickup

The Seymour Duncan Apollo delivers articulate, focused response from a purpose-built humbucking design engineered specifically for 5-string Jazz bass models. This neck and bridge pairing captures the clarity and definition vintage-minded players expect while eliminating the noise floor of unshielded designs—a critical advantage in studio and live settings where feedback becomes an issue.

Tonal Design & Construction

Hand-ground alnico 5 rod magnets and linear humbucking coil geometry establish clean, controlled output across the frequency spectrum. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal, ensuring stable performance whether tracking in the studio or playing live venues where feedback presents a challenge.

Installation & Compatibility

The 70mm neck and 74mm bridge configuration fits original Fender 5-string Jazz bass cavities without modification. Supplied with chrome pickup screws and constructed as a passive design requiring no external power, these pickups drop in and play with zero additional setup—hand-made in Santa Barbara for discerning Jazz bass players.
