Bartolini MK5CBC-T 5-String, MK Soapbar, Classic Bass, Dual Coil, Bridge Position

Bartolini MK5CBC-T Classic Bass soapbars have a rich, deep voice with lots of high-end clarity and warmth. When you dig in, they are responsive and growly. When you pull back, they are clear and sweet. And they’ll take any slapping and popping you want to give them.

The Bartolini Classic Bass series is popular with progressive, jazz, gospel and metal musicians where articulation is critical. Without sacrificing low end, Classic Bass pickups are sweat-proof and won’t crackle and thud when you touch them or hit them with the strings. If you play a wide variety of music, you know you need some pro-level pickups, but you don’t want to do a big upgrade project, Classic Bass pickups are a great choice. They are passive and will work with your current electronics in most basses. There are different versions for neck (Bass, -B) and bridge (Treble, -T) so they balance well in your bass.
