The Vintage Tallboy Powerbucker Bridge is a sweet and warm passive bass pickup serving up presence and full-bodied tone previously found only in active pickups. This powerful beast brings rich, responsive tone with punchy lows and clear highs, without the need for a battery. Though it's got a tad less heat than the Muy Grande Powerbucker, the Vintage Tallboy's got just as much flavor as its big brother! With its roots in our “True Splitting” family, the Powerbucker can be coil-split to go from full force humbucker to enhanced single-coil Jazz tone at the flip of a switch. Not every fire needs to roar... Some just smoke slow and steady.
Tone Features:
- Warm Vintage Tone: Strong but sweet, with all the harmonic detail bass players crave
- Analog Attitude: No active circuitry. No batteries. Just tone that plays well with tube amps and analog rigs

Vintage Powerbucker bridge bass pickup
Hi Dave, these and your Muy Grande bridge powerbuckers are my all time favorite, go to bridge bass pickups. I always play, comeback to, and love the sound of my basses with these in them. Awesome output with that active pickup vibe, but with the beautiful organic passive tone!
