PJ Bass Pickups give you the best of two worlds of tone shaping. Choose the p-bass pickup from our range of fantastic brands, and combine it with a single coil J style bridge pickup.
Used by Victor Wooten, Duff McKagen, Rocco Prestia and Geezer Butler to only name a few. The PJ Bass pickup is not bound to any specific genre and will help you shape the tone you have in mind.
With a good EQ, PJ Pickups can dial in a blend of the two different pickup tones or isolate them. Giving you the flexibility of changing your sound throughout a set, without having to change instrument. Or have lots of pedals. Not that we have anything against either of these alternatives!
Regardless of what pj-sound you are searching for, Tone Merchants searches the world to bring you the best PJ bass pickups. So you can finally find that bass tone you have been searching for.
Choose from a wide range of USA made brands such as Nordstrand, Lollar and Lindy Fralin Pickups to create a tone that is unique to you.
All orders are sent from our shop in Auckland, NZ on a track and trace courier. Typically within New Zealand your PJ Bass Pickups will arrive over night once dispatched. For delivery into Australia typically our standard service is 5-7 days once dispatched.
Once your order is ready to send out to you, you will receive an e-mail notification with the track and trace details of your courier that has been booked. So if needed you can check on the progress of your delivery.
ExcellentBased on 37 reviewsMorgan Edwards16 May 2024Brad’s advice was instrumental in helping me to choose the gear that was right for my needs. What’s more, Brad’s customer service was second to none. I am pleased to have been able to purchase my epic Genzler rig (Magellan 800 + NuClassic 2x12) through Tone Merchants, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend them to anybody looking for equipment (pickups, amps, hardware and more) for their bass or guitar.David “Denial” Mortenson1 May 2024I can't tell you enough about how Brad helped me out of a jam, I was on tour recently in NZ/AUST with LIVE - (Bass Tech) and I had a tuning peg get damaged in transport and Tone Merchants were the only dealers on that side of the world with the peg I needed. Brad was so fast with an email response and express shipping of the peg I was back up and running with in a couple days. Thank you Brad, I will always recommend and hopefully stop in and see you next time I'm in town!!Brenten Blury29 April 2024Brad sorted some amazing fralin pickups at a great price and included some extra covers due to a stock discrepancy. Very helpful and good service. Thanks!Matthew Berg28 April 2024After doing plenty of hunting for a replacement bridge for my Rickenbacker bass i stumbled across Tone Merchants. The communication back and forth while i waited for the import to arrive was great.... Prompt shipping to me in Australia at a very reasonable cost! The tone, playability and most of all functionality of this upgrade is second to none. 10/10. It's just like a cup of Dilmah - "Do Try It".Marty Forrer8 April 2024I purchased TI Jazz Flats and prewired Jazz control plate from Tone Merchants. Excellent products and excellent service.Olivier Holland19 March 2024Fantastic shop stocking some top notch gear, most notably Genzler amps! Massive 'thumbs up' and recommendations!Matt Harvey14 March 2024Legendary. Great advice from Brad regarding modding options aswell as a wicked service in the explanation as to what each can do for your tone. The concentric knob control plate was simple to install, looks amazing on the US Fender and with the series/parallel switches my tone control is spot on. A slick and stylish vintage look and an even better sounding jazz bass.Seamus Jolly14 March 2024Fantastic service, and what a bass! Highly recommend these guys. Thanks again BradJulian Pettitt11 March 2024Can't speak highly enough of Brad, great to deal with, knowledgeable and professional. Bought the Genzler Magellan 800 amp and Bass Array 4x10 cabinet and have never sounded better! The whole band is stoked on the tone and clarity of my rig, thanks Tone Merchants!
