Bartolini 8S Original P-Bass 4-String Pickup
Our users rate Reverb
P-Bass® Original series pickups are your best choice for the biggest, fattest bottom end. No other pickup can deliver the warm, open lows the way these do. Ensuring that any unwanted "woof" is eliminated, the split coil blade keeps your sound tight and clear, all while delivering huge bass response. You'll never find lower tones produced with higher fidelity! Available in split (S) coil designs, you'll find all the depth of tone you need right here. If you are looking for bottomless bass, they're also available in our deep voicing (SU) incarnation. Original Barts bring out your voice, low and clear.
The original Bartolini design gives you the timeless tone that started it all – full and warm for that vintage voice you’ve been craving, enhancing the natural voice of your bass. These split coil pickups are hum-cancelling, so they are well suited for studio or stage. They have a blade core design, so you don’t have to worry about string alignment. Original Barts bring out your voice, low and clear.
In the early ‘70s, Bill Bartolini leveraged his deep knowledge of acoustics to create pickups that produce the most natural, musical voice from the instrument. He added shielding to block radio signals and noise. He developed a method of sealing, isolating, and stabilizing the coils so they could be encapsulated in epoxy to eliminate “microphonics” – the nasty noise you get when you touch typical pickups.
