Seymour Duncan Active Soapbar 5-String Phase II Bass Pickup - Bridge

Seymour Duncan designed their Active Soapbar bass pickups to be the perfect blend of a traditional active pickup's punch and snap and a vintage passive pickup's warmth and tone. The dynamics and response are true, with just a hint of tonal coloring that is musical and not extreme. The sound of the ASB is natural, with an even bass, mid, and treble response that's perfect for fingerstyle or slap.

The onboard active preamp gives you more overall volume and presence than you can typically get from a passive pickup. Seymour Duncan's internal split-blade design allows for the best string-to-string balance of any soapbar bass pickup. The ASB-5 is a direct replacement for EMG 40 sized soapbars.

Many bassists combine the ASB pickups with Seymour Duncan's STC-2A or STC-3A Tone Circuit preamps to add precision EQ sculpting. Battery life is approximately 1,000 continuous hours per set and we include all necessary mounting and wiring hardware.
