EMG PJ HZ Passive Bass Pickup Set in Ivory
The EMG PJ HZ Passive Bass Pickup Set captures warm, natural bass fundamentals with the direct, uncolored response passive electronics deliver—no batteries, no preamp circuit shaping your source tone. This Ivory-finished set brings reliable EMG engineering to passive recording and live setups, letting you sculpt clarity and articulation in the mix from the instrument itself.
Passive Design & Recording Character
Built on Alnico 5 pole piece magnets, these pickups lay down a naturally balanced signal with the vintage warmth that sits cleanly in dense mixes. The 5-wire quik-connect output system lets you route the P and J sections together or independently, giving your session board multiple tonal options from a single instrument configuration.
Studio-Ready Shielding & Setup
Fully shielded construction keeps RF and hum out of your signal path during tracking, essential for clean passive recordings in any studio space. The included solderless wiring harness, mounting screws, and springs mean faster swap-ins and minimal downtime—no custom soldering required to get back to tracking.
