Review: Turn your budget Squier Precision Bass into a full blown Fender Precision for a very small cost. - These Seymour Duncan 1/4 Pounders make a Squier P Bass sound like you have just spent 2k on a proper Fender, i honestly cant believe how much of a difference they have made, nice twangy high notes with tons of sustain, turn the tone control to the lowest position and the low notes are seriously Bassy, perfect for Dub Reggae. The amount of extra control with the tone is incredibly. Very very easy to fit, best upgrade ever. BUY THEM!!! Review: Great pickups. Such a better tone - These really are the best pickups for a P-bass in my opinion. The difference in tone and output in comparison to my stock Squier pickups means that there is no comparison. They’re packaged well in a sturdy plastic box with all fittings, although in my opinion, the screws are a little short so I used my original screws. This may just be because of the depth of cutout in my bass. They’re a direct replacement for stock p-bass pickups which makes installation easier, and come with foam to help lift them into the correct position. Instructions are provided, but you do need a soldering iron and good soldering skills to replace them. Took me about 20 mins from strat to finish to install and it made my favourite bass to play sound pretty amazing. If you’re only doing 1 mod to transform your p-bass to sound better, this is the mod to make. ## Features - Massive Tone Upgrade - Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pound P-Bass Pickup delivers a fat, punchy sound with an extended frequency range for endless rock tones. - Versatile Performance - Perfect for heavy rock, classic rock, punk, metal, or any style.

In this regard, I have not been disappointed. The pickups were very easy to install into my Fender Squier Precision Bass and the output range was much better than the originals. In addition, They look very much like the originals but have much improved sound. I was happy to purchase these through Amazon as I usually get good service in that the items are delivered in good time and are not too expensive. Again, I was not disappointed, they arrived within days and I was able to install and use the pickups in quick order. ## Frequently Bought Together - Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pound P-Bass Pickup - High Output Pickup for Classic and Hard Rock, Grunge, Metal, and Punk - SAPHUE PB Bass Wiring Harness Prewired Kit for Precision Bass Guitar Big 250K Pots 1 Volume 1 Tone Jack - Ernie Ball Regular Slinky Nickel Wound Bass Guitar Strings, 50-105 Gauge (P02832) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/48854452-quarter-pound-p-bass-pickup-new](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/48854452-quarter-pound-p-bass-pickup-new) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
