Owned a Fender Player Precision Bass for a few of years. The player precision element has the disadvantage that it does not always produce a lot of grunt.

After struggling with finding my ideal sound, (believe me I tried tons of strings) I decided to go on a “Precision pickup quest”.

First I tried Fender V-Mod element;
By default, the V-mod sounds a bit dull in the bass due to a design error, if you mirror the pickup parts (top part below and bottom part above) then the pickup sounds pretty good.

Out of pure curiosity and missing a small bit of something in the sound, i tried the Rebel Relic Vintage P pickup and Fender Pure Vintage 63 pickup.

The Rebel Relic Vintage P has a lot of mids and lacks in lows, it has a huge mid grunt. This element is ideal for 50s music, because many bass elements of that time had that character.

However, for contemporary use in a band you also have to have enough low tones and I missed that.

The Fender Pure Vintage 63 pickup has this. Compared to the Rebel Relic Vintage P, this pickup has slightly less middle, slightly less high, more low middle and more bass. Enough grunt. Perfect. Recommended in combination with Dunlop Nickelwoud or Dunlop Super Bright Nickelwound strings. I have been using Dunlop Super Bright for 4 months now and it sounds great with the Fender Pure Vintage 63.

My Fender Pickup quest and strings quest is over.
I'm happy.

Perfect :-)

If you play a single-pickup Precision Bass , your pickup is the foundation of your whole sound. You need a good pickup, this is a great pickup.

True to the original and made with authentic materials, I found the ‘63 pickup to have the perfect tonal range with a versatile sound that could suit a multitude of styles and genres.

Installation is easy, I didn’t have to do any routing or drilling to fit this pickup to my Fender Bass. Once screwed in, there’s just two wires to solder in and you’re done.

The pickup is of a level of quality you’d expect from such a reputable brand, with sturdy mounting hardware included.

Also, the covers lift right off if the pickup isn’t screwed into the body of the bass. So if you want to use the pickup with your existing covers or a different set, you might be able to still use this pickup without it affecting your desired visual appearance for the bass.

Great P-Bass sound
Votanik 23.03.2020
My Squier CV 60s had some decent pick ups but they were a little bit at the treble side, adding to this the poplar body is also at the treble side as a tonewood, these Pure Vintage 63 pickups solve the brightness issues giving to the instrument a balanced fat sound. I also replaced all the electronics, saddles and file the fret edges and round the edge of the fret board, the bass now is an amazing instrument, plays and sounds like a thousands euros instrument.

The 4 star on the quality is because if the pickup screws... they are a little shorter than the Squier's stock ones, if you want to adjust the pickup height high these screws will not do the job and you will need to use the stock. Fender should pay more attention to the details.

Precision geluid zoals het hoort ...
Edwin Bass 05.04.2021
Ik heb deze geplaatst in mijn American Pro1 Precision in plaats van de originele Pickup. Echt een 'verademing'. Dit element doet wat het moet. Een droge Precision sound met véél diepte en een heerlijk mid geluid.
Ik plaatste 4 sterren voor de afwerking. Niet dat het slecht afgewerkt is, maar zoals bij elke Precision Pickup moet ik de pooltjes afschermen en isoleren naar de 'ground'. Anders krijg ik altijd een buzz als ik de pooltjes aanraak. Is dit erg? Nee. Maar het zou fijn zijn als dit al gebeurd was vanuit de fabriek. Maar dit is maar een klein probleem en laat je daardoor niet afschrikken want het geluid is subliem goed.
