DiMarzio DP123 Model J Bass, Black Overview

DiMarzio Model JGäó pickups reproduce the warmth and roundness of the traditional Fender® Jazz Bass® sound with increased power and hum-cancellation. The additional power translates into a bigger sound that emphasizes the resonant character of the instrument. The DiMarzio Model JGäó pickup's sensitivity and deep tone are also the perfect complement to fretless basses. Double-stop glissandos and delicate violin-style vibrato speak with a classic, woody voice simply by backing off slightly on the tone control. For an even more varied choice of tones, pair a bridge position DiMarzio Model JGäó with a DiMarzio Model P® pickup. The warm, fat tone of the DiMarzio Model P® plus the tight punch of the DiMarzio Model JGäó open up the sound of any bass.

I have these DiMarzios installed on two J style basses I built; fretted and fretless. There are more expensive options out there - which are also fantastic, don't get me wrong - but these DiMarzios punch well above their weight. What we prefer from pickups is subjective, but don't be surprised if these turn out to be your favourites! They sound really full, with a nice balance between grittiness and growl, when you dig in, and offer smoothness when you adapt your playing style (and settings) accordingly. They are so very, very quiet! For recording musicians, near computer monitors, this can be a real plus. The adjustable pole pieces are a nice feature too; you can quickly match the radius of the fretboard / distance to strings, to give a nicely balanced output profile. Whilst they look non-traditional, with those pole-pieces, they also look smart and cool. I have recorded so many pieces using these DiMarzios. They always deliver great results. Well worth giving them a try. I was persuaded by all the excellent reviews I read. So I am happy to 'add my voice to the chorus'.
