Seymour Duncan 90'S Music Man Ceramic - 5- String

About This Item

Upgrade your MusicMan StingRay bass with the Seymour Duncan SMB-5D 5-string Ceramic Music Man Pickup. This humbucker pickup is a direct replacement for 5-string MusicMan StingRay basses up to 1992. Seymour Duncan, renowned for their high-quality pickups, has carefully crafted the SMB-5D to capture the essence of the best MusicMan pickups from over the years.

The result is a 1976-voiced humbucker that delivers a wide range of tones suited for various genres such as blues, funk, classic rock, southern rock, jam, and hard rock. With its dual coil design and ceramic magnet, this humbucking pickup offers exceptional hum-cancelling properties, ensuring a clean and noise-free performance. Its tone contour is highly musical, featuring a richly articulated bottom, prominent midrange, and plenty of treble. The overall sound is balanced and full, with a mild bark that adds character without being overly brash or harsh in the mid-range. For optimal performance, pair the SMB-5D pickup with the STC-3M4 Basslines Tone Circuits specifically designed for MusicMan basses.

These tone circuits provide three usable bands of EQ and include a proprietary slap contour switch, allowing you to fine-tune your tone to perfection. Seymour Duncan takes pride in handcrafting their pickups in Santa Barbara, California, USA, and the SMB-5D is no exception. It comes with all the necessary mounting hardware and a detailed wiring diagram for easy installation. Notable players such as Darrell Harris, Gary Puckett, Dan Lutz, Andy Summers, and Roger Camero of No Motiv have trusted Seymour Duncan pickups, and now you can join them in elevating your MusicMan bass's sound with the Seymour Duncan SMB-5D. Upgrade your MusicMan bass and experience the enhanced tone and versatility that the Seymour Duncan SMB-5D 5-string Ceramic Music Man Pickup brings.

  • Question: Can I use the SMB-5D pickup with other bass guitar brands?

    Answer: While the SMB-5D is specifically designed for Music Man bass guitars, it can potentially be used with other brands if they have a similar pickup configuration.

If you’re looking to upgrade a non-Music Man bass, consulting with a professional is recommended to ensure compatibility.
