HZ passive bass pickups from EMG feature dual-coil "CS" (ceramic and steel) design with bar polepieces under a solid cover, for full-range response and added brightness. EMG-HZ passive pickups require no batteries and feature high gain and low noise.
See details below
Thoroughly "road-tested," HZ pickups were formerly available only on B.C. Rich, ESP, Jackson and Schecter instruments. They're handmade in California by a leader in pickup technology, with precision and attention to detail.
Each pickup includes a unique 5-pin Quik-Connect cable for fast installation and swapping. To minimize noise, all HZs are fully shielded. The coils are potted and the pickups are polymer-encapsulated for microphonic-free performance. Screws and wiring instructions are included.
Model 35K for 4-string bass is an 8K ohm pickup that measures 1-1/2" x 3-1/2". Model 40HZ for 5-string is 9.6K ohms and measures 1-1/2" x 4". Model 45HZ for 6-string bass is 11K ohms and measures 1-1/2" x 4-1/2".
Bar polepieces allow a variety of string spacings. Maximum recommended string spreads: #5935 2-3/4"; #5936: 3-1/8"; #5937 3-3/4".
