A "70's Jazz Bass" Approach by Aguilar
With this kit, Aguilar targets bassists seeking the personality of 70's era Jazz Basses: a lively, precise sound that stands out in the mix without losing its organic character. Whether playing in the studio or on stage, the goal is to achieve an expressive output, with clear articulation on each string and a responsive attack.
Who Is This Pickup Kit For?
This set is aimed at musicians who want to evolve their Jazz Bass-style instrument towards a more vintage and sharper register without using active electronics. It is particularly suitable for styles where definition and punch matter: funk, pop, rock, soul, as well as modern jazz when a clean low end and clear attack are desired.
Important Compatibility Note: the reference indicates "Jazz Bass 5-string" with 19mm spacing, while the product sheet mentions "instrument: 4-string bass." Since these details may vary depending on your instrument's exact model (dimensions, string spacing, routing), it is recommended to verify compatibility with your bass before installation.
Designed for Easy Installation and Consistent Sound
As a set, this kit is designed to provide a balanced sound across positions, ensuring a natural transition when switching pickups or blending both. In passive configuration, you benefit from a direct response: playing nuances, volume knob variations, and the wood's character remain prominent, while delivering the expected "70's" color on a Jazz Bass.

Questions frequently asked
Is this Aguilar kit compatible with a 5-string Jazz Bass?
The reference indicates a 5-string Jazz Bass configuration with a 19 mm spacing. However, the technical sheet mentions a 4-string bass: the cavity dimensions, string spacing, and routing should therefore be verified before installation.
What sound does Aguilar's 70's type provide?
The 70's voicing aims for a lively and precise sound, with a clear attack and a clean low end. This approach suits funk, pop, rock, soul, and modern jazz styles.
Does the kit work with active electronics?
The listed electronics are passive. This direct response highlights playing nuances, volume variations, and the character of the instrument.
What does the 19 mm spacing refer to on this set?
The indicated spacing is 19 mm. This value should match the string spacing and the template of the bass concerned to confirm compatibility.
Are the neck and bridge pickups balanced?
Provided as a set, this kit is designed to ensure a homogeneous balance between the two positions. Switching from one pickup to the other and blending them maintains a natural transition.
