Reviews

The best
Fantastic sound and even on all 4 strings
Tried and True - no need to try the “new stuff”
I've played on the Realist since 2008, and have only needed to replace it twice. Recently, I tried the new model that connects between the bridge adjuster and bridge - that model made me go back to this one.
Music background: Blues, Funk, and Jazz Bassist
Preferred pick-up for jazz double bass
For us, this is the most requested and liked pick-up we use. Stable and easy to mount, this is a great pick-up.
Absolutely a fabulous pick up
Very easy to install. I did have to look up a youtube video to install it. I use it on my beautiful upright bass for playing in musicals.
