MM4.2 Dual Coil

Description Tone Dimensions Press Reviews This pickup sires a tone coveted by all who experience its pronounced midrange scoop and driving timbre of the classic, full-bodied MusicMan range. The specs that go into its design are derivative of the early MusicMan basses, which contribute to its powerful low end, heavy scoop, and present yet pleasant top end. This pickup's 70s inspired tone will provide the player with the sonically encompassing sound of modern Music Man models without any of the clanky sting that is sometimes present in the high end.

Carefully reproduced and meticulously refined with history in mind, the MM4.2 stands as proof of our shop's ability to transcend the timeline of frequencies the muse's tonal prospects have come to develop throughout the decades.   *Not exactly what you are looking for?  Email the shop directly or call the shop at: 909-790-2548 to find out about our many custom pickup options.    Tonal Balance = 7 1=Dark/Bass-Heavy, 10=Bright/Less Bass   Mids = 4 1=Less Mids, 10=More Mids   Dynamics = 6 1=Slow, Loose, Blurry, 10=Quick, Tight, Controlled   Character/Color = 7 1=Flat, Plain, 10=Colorful   MAGNETTYPEHERE Length: 4.0” (101.6 mm) Width: 1.895” (48.13 mm) ARTISTSHERE MEDIAHERE "Then I heard about the Nordstrand pickups.

The Nordstrand pickup looks identical to the Ernie Ball pickup except for rounded pole piece edges and a tiny N stamped in the lower right hand corner. This should be a benefit for anyone wanting to keep the stock look of the bass..." - Read the entire review at Bass Frontiers
