Product Description

Nordstrand NJ4SE Hum-Canceling jazz bass pickup design stems from the pursuit of eradicating all shy and wilting bass tone from the live setting. The team at Nordstrand Audio believe in the maintenance of bold pronunciation.  To achieve this they did their best to create the Rottweiler of bass pickups…literally. The techs at Nordstrand siphoned the spirit of Carey Nordstrand’s late pup, Maya, a Boxer-Rottie mix, and embedded it into the fabric of the NJ4SE’s central character. This K-9 had a particular reverence for spatial chaos and impact—a whirlwind of energy akin to that of freeform progressive jazz—and so it is no wonder that the pickup which contains her spirit has the ability to bludgeon audiences with jazzy vigor and relentless articulation.
