Delano's SBC5 HE/S-4 DRIVER bass pickups are quad-coil bass humbuckers in the classic P2 soapbar shape. They represent the leading edge in dedicated bass transducer technology: Unbelievably full and open sound throughout the entire spectrum with tight bottom, airy midrange and heavenly harmonics unrivalled by ANY other bass pickup. Finally your bass CAN sound like it should.
With the SBC5 HE/S-4 DRIVER, Delano wanted to integrate the option of an additional P-cross coil style string sensing pattern, with no hum, off course. But what you get is far more. When properly wired and positioned, you can get, for example, two different JB type® (60s or 70s) single coil voicings out of the very same SBC 5 HE/S-4 bridge pickup, on top of their dead-on humbucker sound.
Includes pickup screw tubing and black screws.
Shielded 4-conductor cable

More punch is present in these quad coil bass pickups when wired in series compared to their dual coil counterparts. The mid range has more content and they feel quite dynamic.
