Frequently asked questions
What's the practical difference in string spacing between these two?
The 67/70 has narrower spacing (67mm neck, 70mm bridge) for denser five-string feel and more focused tone. The 70/74 (70mm neck, 74mm bridge) replicates original Fender specifications and suits players wanting wider spacing for comfort.
Do both pickups fit standard Fender Jazz bass cavities?
The 70/74 is explicitly designed for original Fender 5-string Jazz bass cavities without modification. The 67/70 specifications differ and should be verified for your specific instrument before purchase.
Which pickup set has more aggressive output?
The 67/70's neck pickup at 9.58 kΩ is lower resistance than typical, delivering brighter, more aggressive articulation. The 70/74 is designed for balanced, vintage-minded clarity rather than punch.
Are both suitable for studio and live playing?
Yes—both feature vacuum wax potting for feedback elimination and work equally well in studio or live settings. Choice depends on your tone preference and instrument compatibility rather than application.
