Bass Humbucker Pickups also known as MusicMan or ‘MM-style’ pickups, nicknamed from the release in 1976 by Music Man’s of the Stingray bass.
Deliver a punchy tone that will ensure you cut through the mix. When created the MM Style bass humbucker was a beast in the day. Compared to the split coil p and j bass pups of the time, the sound was enormous and almost had to be treat with care. Louis Johnson (Thunder Thumbs) tore ship up in the 70’s upon the launch of the MM Humbucker pickups.
Since then bass humbuckers have grown in popularity of use in different genera’s. Along with the technology behind the designs. Artists such as Tim Crawford and Justin Chancellor have taken the bass humbucker to new levels of sonic sounds that have defined their own bass tone in music history.

EXCELLENT Based on 67 reviews Jordan Ellmore13 February 2025 Excellent, fast, easy service, Highly recommend! My guitar is a whole new animal with its new emerson custom wiring harness installed A++ Andrew Welch6 February 2025 Provides an excellent niche service. Sometimes I wish there were a lot more details available on the website or the ability to track delivery (mine took months due to backordered components) but in the end Brad came through and it's highly recommended as the go to shop for NZ mods! Graeme Bull3 February 2025 Very pleased with purchase and service. Super fast courier, will be back! Austyn Mills24 January 2025 I ordered a set of Lollar pickups from Brad and had him install them in my Tele - the difference in tone is night & day, great comms throughout and overall a very fun process. Can't wait to come back for the next mod - thanks so much man! Colin Lawrence10 January 2025 Brad was very knowlegeable and helpful as always. I have purchased several necks for my Tele and Strat builds and they have been of really good quality and apart from relief setting to personal taste, they have required no extra finishing.

Brads also a wealth of knowledge for advice... Tone Merchants is now my new go to for guitar parts. Tim Brown10 December 2024 Brad is a real gem for the guitar world. Super helpful and a wealth of knowledge. Marcel Reinen10 November 2024 Bought a shiny new Magellen 800 recently from Tony @ Tone Merchants, because I needed more power for my Barefaced Big Twin II cab, particularly when running my 5 string Fender Jazz. I've used it on a variety of gigs and this amp is insane. Never gone louder than halfway, with headroom to burn. The sound is clear and tight and as a bonus the DI feed for my IEM's is super clean. Couldn't be happier with this amp. No need to look anywhere else!
