Aguilar Announces HOT Series Precision and Jazz Bass Pickups
Aguilar Announces HOT Series Precision and Jazz Bass Pickups… Aguilar, the leading edge USA manufacturer of high quality bass pickups, is pleased to announce the HOT series of Precision and Jazz pickups – the Hot P (AG 4P-HOT) and the Hot J (AG 4J-HOT). They are direct replacements for 4-string Fender P-Bass and Jazz pickups.
With their larger, 16MM magnets and over-wound design, these pickups have a hotter output that loves to push the input of your amplifier with a tone that is big and loud with thundering lows. Despite their sonic onslaught, the Hot P and Hot J retain all the dynamics of your playing style. Dig in with a pick (or your fingers!) and all of the grit and nuance of your attack comes through without losing the midrange.
Like all Aguilar pickups, the Hot P and Hot J are wound in Aguilar’s NYC factory. These pickups use 42 gauge heavy Formvar wire and larger, 16mm Alnico V magnets for the big, dynamic tone that Aguilar pickups are known for.
The Hot pickups will be available February 15th 2013.
Since their release in 2010, Aguilar pickups have become the new standard for exceptional bass guitar pickups. Providing the rich, musical tone that Aguilar gear is known for, Aguilar pickups are used by top luthiers and bass players the world over. Whether you are looking for period-correct vintage flavors or the most modern tones; Aguilar has the pickup for your bass.
Your bass has a voice, let it be heard.
Aguilar pickups are used by many famous bass players including Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Beck, NIN, and many others), Anthony Wellington (Victor Wooten), Jeph Howard (The Used), and Nathan Thomas (Scotty McCreery). For more information, please visit: www.aguilaramp.com.
