Jazz Bass Upgrade Pack – 5 String J Blades with Concentric Controls

Jazz Bass Upgrade Pack giving you all you need to mod your bass. This time I have put together something extra special for 5 string bass players. These are possibly my favorite Jazz Bass pickups from Nordstrand. I have just completed a 4 string Jazz Bass for the shop using the same pickups & Concentric wiring & I’m so happy with how it sounds, I thought it would make for a great upgrade pack!

Jazz Bass Upgrade Pack Includes:

Nordstrand Big J Blade Pickups – Warm & Wooly 

Nordstrand Big J Blade 5 Pickups are an innovative application to the jazz bass style pickup using the solutions excavated through discovering the secrets of the Big Blade. Their aesthetic elements reflect the groundbreaking development of signature Nordstrand blade tone. These pickups are the weapon of choice for the war-time jazz player—the funk master that has all but ten seconds to shred his way to infinity before his bass based pride is compromised by an opponent of lesser tone—and have been rendered as such in order to supply the player with a diversifying sound that is broken down even further by its dual choice in winds.

Tone Merchants Concentric Control Plate

Concentric Jazz Bass Control Plate was made by Fender for a very short period of time, 1960-1962 but has had a lasting effect with an almost mythical feel about it. In fact these Concentric Jazz Basses from 60-62 are now highly sought after by collectors and tone junkies.

Concentric controls for bass give you a wide range of tone options. Being able to contour the volume and tone of each pickup individually, offers an opportunity to sculpt your own tone to your discretion. Enabling you to really dial in the bass tone needed for the track or for defining your own sound.

Pre Tinned Leads For Easy Soldering

All Tone Merchants Wiring harnesses & control plates are designed to make it easy to install. You’ll find the “Hot Wires” that are to be connected to your pickups already soldered to the pots. So all you need to do is connect the wires of your pickups to these & then heat-shrink wrap the exposed wire (provided). This removes a lot of the effort when new to soldering & the fears around over-heating the pots.
