DESCRIPTION

b-axis Jazz pickups series feature a new and unique fully encapsulated Alnico V exposed pole design, and yet they are still fully shielded like all our enclosed pickups. The cable is shielded as well. b-axis Jazz bass® pickups are dual-inline hum-cancelling design for use in professional venues and studios. They are sweat-proof and won’t make nasty noises if you touch them.

b-axis pickups are super punchy and bright, but also warm. They have outstanding articulation, attack, and harmonic response. Musicians who play jazz, rock, country, gospel, and hip-hop are already finding their voice in b-axis pickups.

Available in balanced bridge and neck versions.

Artists: David Wilson

WHAT IS THE TONE OF THE BARTOLINI B-AXIS JAZZ BASS® PICKUPS?

These pickups sport a more percussive sound than most J bass pickups. They are bigger sounding, with a bridge pickup that has more output and is quite good sounding on its own. Sonically, quite special and unique.

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.
