Humbucker pickup for 5-string electric bass guitar that recreates the classic Stingray tone while adding all of the characteristics that Aguilar pickups are known for - excellent string-to-string balance, consistency of tone and rich harmonic content. It is wired in parallel to give players crisp treble, articulate midrange and thunderous lows. Paired with an on-board preamp, such as Aguilar's OBP-1, 2 or 3, it provides the ultimate in tonal flexibility. The pickup is equipped with a 42-gauge Formvar wire and Alnico V magnets and is heat resistant Teflon coated. It was designed for basses using 18 to 19mm string spacing (Music man style basses from Lakland and many others use this spacing). It will not retro fit into Ernie Ball Music man five string basses.
