Gear Watch: Aguilar Announces New Line of Bass Pickups

Aguilar Amplification has just announced the first in their new line of bass pickups, the AG-4J pick up.

The AG-4J is a single-coil pickup, modeled after a mid-60’s single coil Jazz bass pickup, built using Heavy Formvar wire and Alnico V magnets. Aguilar says they’ve developed a proprietary winding pattern to give these pickups string-to-string consistency, and to match their on-board preamps.

The AG-4J pickup set is for 4-string basses and is a direct replacement in Jazz bass-styles. Single neck and bridge pickups are also available, and the set has a MSRP of $199.00.
