Lollar Pickups has introduced the DC J-Bass, a new product aimed at Jazz and PJ Bass players looking for a hum-cancelling option.
Rick Vanselow, General Manager at Lollar Pickups, stated, “Though we continue to build our vintage-inspired single-coil version of J-Bass pickups, we also recognise the differing needs of our customers and are pleased to respond to that demand for quieter operation with this new hum-cancelling design.”
The DC J-Bass aims to address noise and interference issues and is also positioned as an option for those seeking a fuller Jazz Bass sound. It can be used both as a set of two or as the bridge pickup in a PJ set.
The development of the DC J-Bass was inspired by the company’s interactions with studio artists, session players, and touring musicians who often face challenges with unwanted noise from single-coil pickups due to inconsistent power sources and stage equipment interference.
The DC J-Bass is now available for purchase at a retail price of $155 USD and comes with black covers. Lollar also offers a PJ set, which includes a standard P-Bass Split-coil neck pickup and a DC J-Bass bridge pickup, with a retail price of $315 USD.
Further details about the DC J-Bass and the PJ Bass Set can be found on Lollar’s website.
