Widen the sound of your gear
with a Split P pickup. Each half of this unique double-blade P-style
pickup is a complete humbucker. Split P pickups are EQ’d to expand the
range of your bass by extending both low- and high-end response: a
great way to get a broader contemporary sound from mid-rangy
one-pickup-in-the-middle basses. The double-blade design adds snap for
crisp attack and emphasizes cool overtones for big, smooth tone. Blade
pole pieces also make the Split P very sensitive to finger- and
pick-attack. Notes seem to ring longer, especially in the upper
registers, as the pickup “hears” the decaying note practically down to a
whisper.
The Split P ability to reproduce both subtle dynamics
and the full range of electric bass frequencies is particularly useful
with fretless basses and modern bass amps. Biamping will demonstrate
this pickups ability to reproduce top end, but the broad magnetic
window of the dual-blade design enables the highs to stay fat and full.
