Ben’s Pickups: Custom "Mid 1960's Vintage" Jazz Bass Set

Capture the definitive "golden era" tone of the mid-1960s. Handcrafted with pride in the small town of Milton, North Carolina, Ben’s Pickups are built for players who demand uncompromising quality. We take pride in making some of the finest-sounding pickups the world over—trusted and relied upon by professional studio and touring musicians across the globe. Every set is hand-guided and tensioned to ensure the true "soul" and musicality of the pickup remain intact.

This hand-wound set is engineered to deliver a warm low end, punchy midrange growl, and the dynamic range that defined the mid-1960s Jazz Bass. Whether you're looking for a deep neck-thump or that famous bridge-position growl, this set provides the clarity and soulful response that modern mass-produced pickups often miss.
