What's up, hey can anyone help me out??!! I have a Fender mexican deluxe active jazz bass. I want it to sound like the fender 60's jazz basses (lots of bass and mids and warm, punchy sound, no hum, lots of output) Iv'e been looking at the bassline pickup models. But I dont know which one to get should I get the SJB-1 vintage jazz, or the SJB-2 HOT. I was looking at harmony central.com at there pickup reviews but I saw bad reviews for the SJB-2??!! . And the SJB-1 is a low output pickup and i want a high output pickup. P.S. I already looked at the Fender custom shop 60's pickups and I know they hum like crazy!!!!! :smack: :saeek: :fing25:

STK-J2 Hot stack for jazz is more than likely what you're looking for. High output, sounds like a hot vintage jazz bass pup with no hum! Nice Lows, mids and highs. Think "Vintage sound with a little more oomph" I use 'em an I love 'em. I use mine for blues primarily, but it also turns out a great rock tone. worse case scenario, take advantage of the seymour duncan 21 day exchance policy.

no, the Hot Stack for JB is rediculous sounding... it doesn't sound anything like a 60's jazz bass. You've put up quite a tall order. Vintage and warm sounding, but no hum and hi output.... that's a tough order. In anycase, I'd suggest a SJB-1 set. Those are marvelous. Friend o' mine has 'em in his 69 Jazz Bass, the thing sounds amazing. What style music do you play?
