MM5.3 Triple coil humbucking 5 string MusicMan®-style bass pickup:

The MM5.3 is the 5 string version of the MM4.3 and also utilizes a dummy coil on the bottom to achieve a silent single coil mode. Like the other pickups in this series, the MM5.3 features Alnico V magnets and Heavy Forvar wire for an authentic early pre-Ernie Ball® tone - punch, growly, and gat. Includes black cover (exposed pole pieces). We stock the soap-bar shape that has no 'ears' and narrow spacing. These have a rectangular cover and narrow spacing that will work on original Music Man® five string basses. Pickup depth may be more than normal, so please make sure your bass has a deep enough rout, or take it to a qualified tech that can do such a modification if necessary.
