The EMG 40DC is a powerful modern sounding humbucker for bass players looking to cut through a big loud mix. The two coils loaded with ceramic bar magnets provide punch and clarity with a crisp top end and plenty of output. This extremely versatile pickup gives players a sonic range that covers the cleanest highs right down to the dirtiest, growling lows. This model uses an extended housing that is 4 inches (102mm), perfect for five string basses. The included solderless wiring makes installing this pickup easy to do at home.
