JCSX Set

The JCSX Set features pickups that utilize ceramic and steel magnets and our X Series preamp. This twist on jazz bass tone, gives players a much warmer sound and a smoother attack with less high end presence. The JCSX Set is less bright than most traditional sounding J pickups and is a great choice for someone looking for a deep, rich sound. These pickups offer smooth jazz bass tone with the benefits of EMG's quiet, low impedance preamp, with a sleek look.

The X series preamp gives the pickup a more dynamic range along with increased headroom while keeping the more traditional string-to-string balance. X series pickups also come with an Active Tone Control (VLPF) designed to roll-off (attenuate) high frequencies, similar to a typical passive tone control. The result is a noiseless single coil guitar pickup with a classic EMG sound that bridges the gap between active and passive.

Manufacturer's Note: Make sure to check the instructions for pickup measurements before purchasing to compare your existing pickups with EMG models.
