Description

CREL JB42 Bass Pickup, Bridge Position

Density, precision and balance for 4-string Jazz Bass®

The CREL JB42 in bridge position was specially designed to address one of the most common limitations of Jazz Bass®: the lack of depth and body in this position. Thanks to a deliberately boosted output level, this pickup delivers more present lows without sacrificing attack or definition, while retaining the Jazz Bass® sonic identity.

A balanced and expressive sound response

In bridge position, the JB42 delivers a dense, precise and articulate sound, ideal for cutting through the mix with clarity. The lower mids are fuller, the attack remains sharp and the result maintains excellent clarity, whether playing fingerstyle, with a pick or in slap. This design allows you to fully exploit the bridge pickup, alone or combined with a neck pickup, with great sonic versatility.

Advanced technical design and long-term stability

The pickup is based on a magnetic steel structure, activated by a Neodymium Iron Boron magnet, offering a powerful, stable and homogeneous magnetic field. This technical choice allows for a higher output level than traditional Alnico magnets, without loss of performance over time.

The magnet is fully protected under a closed cover, preventing any direct contact with the strings and eliminating unwanted mechanical noise. The optimized length of the magnet ensures even pickup across all 4 strings, regardless of their tension or gauge.

Effective reduction of unwanted noise

Although it is a single coil, the CREL JB42 bridge incorporates a Faraday cage and careful internal insulation, allowing it to effectively reduce background noise and interference. This design ensures reliable operation both in the studio and when playing amplified on stage.

Custom pickup covers and simplified installation

The pickup is equipped with a high-precision 3D printed cover, compatible with standard Jazz Bass® formats. The material used is durable, scratch-resistant and designed to maintain a flawless appearance over time.
The textured finish and the CREL logo engraved in the body provide a sober and professional look.

The adjustment foam, also 3D printed, is integrated directly into the pickup. Its pressure strength is calculated to offer precise and stable height adjustment, making installation easier without adding extra parts.

An instantly noticeable improvement to your sound

The CREL JB42 bridge is known for its immediate gain in density, presence and tonal balance. It allows the bridge pickup to take its full place in a mix, both solo and in combination with a neck pickup, while respecting the character of the instrument.

An ideal choice for bassists and luthiers wishing to fully exploit the potential of their Jazz Bass®, with more control, punch and musicality.
