DESCRIPTION

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.

As is the case with all our other historically inspired replacement pickups, the development of the MM4.2 was instigated upon our diligent craftsmen's desire to puncture the sonic space-time continuum, reach through the time warp, and pull that classic 70s tone through to the other side. 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.

WHAT IS THE TONE OF THE NORDSTRAND MM4.2 MUSIC MAN® BASS PICKUP?

One of the most lovable pickups of our MM pickup demos. A very dynamic pickup, that our talent (Andy Dow), remarked how nice it is to play. Great mid range character.

Put on a good set of headphones and check out the audio demo below to hear it for yourself.

As always, keep in mind that these are generalizations. Your experience could be different depending on many factors.

Nordstrand MM4.2 Musicman bass Pickup

I think this a great replacement for the stock Musicman pickup. It still maintains the typical Musicman growl and crunch with the option of a smooth even sound. It was easy to install and evened out the low output G string issue which is an inherent problem with Musicman Stingray bass guitars
