The EMG 40P5 is our P bass pickup in an extended range housing with the treble magnet closer to the neck (like a Spector or Yamaha bass). The EMG 40P5 covers a wide sonic palette of classic and modern bass sounds. Because this pickup utilizes ceramic magnets coupled with short, squat coils, the tone has brilliant high-end articulation, warmth, and incredible low end punch.
Countless pros use this bass pickup because of its natural presence, superior dynamics, and low noise. Utilizing EMG's solderless wiring, this pickup is easy to install at home.
The EMG 40P5 uses a 40 extended housing that is 4 inches (102mm) and is intended for 5 string basses that have a standard string spacing. Make sure to check the instructions for pickup measurements before purchasing to compare your existing pickups with EMG models.
