Today, Fender announces the launch of the Chrome Cobalt P&J Pickup Set, allowing players to unlock the full tonal potential of their P/J Bass.
Chrome Cobalt P&J Pickup Set ($349.99 USD, £349.00 GBP, €399.00 EUR, $689.00 AUD, ¥56,980 JPY) Voiced by tone guru, Tim Shaw, the Cobalt Chrome bass pickups use Fender’s own proprietary blend of a FeCrCo magnet that brings added punch, hi-fi clarity and dynamic range for players looking to define their own sound.
The set includes a split-coil Precision Bass® middle pickup and Jazz Bass® bridge pickup for one of the most versatile tone combinations available. The distinctive-looking chrome-ringed cover acts as a shield to help eliminate 60-cycle hum, making these pickups a remarkably quiet split-coil option.
Here’s what makes the set stand out:
- Proprietary FeCrCo magnets for clear hi-fi tone
- Adjustable pole pieces for custom balanced output
- Formvar magnet wire for bright, glassy tone
- Chrome-ringed black covers
- Wax-potted
- Installation hardware comes included
