Bringing the '70s Back, One Pickup at a Time

The Seymour Duncan Music Man Alnico V 4-string bass pickup is your musical portal to days gone by, when that warmth and distinctive Music Man Stingray feel ruled the airwaves and changed the flavor of rock, funk, and slap bass forever. With oversized Alnico 5 rod magnets, a 4-conductor lead wire, and Forbon flatwork, the Music Man Alnico V generates plenty of vintage vibe. Plus it has another feature Sweetwater bassists love: it's vacuum wax potted for no-squeal performance.

Seymour Duncan Music Man Alnico V 4-string Bass Pickup Features:

  • Unique coil windings reproduce the character and warmth of 1970s Music Man Stingray basses
  • Oversized Alnico 5 rod magnets crank out loads of warm bottom end and detailed highs
  • Constructed with Forbon vulcanized-fiber flatwork for classic sound and performance
  • Wax potted for a squeal-free, clear signal at all times
  • Not designed for use with Music Man basses that have 3-way blade switches

Stunning Tones! Worthy Upgrade

Upgraded my old bass (Sterling Sub 4) with this pickup. Brought some life to my bass and started playing with this bass and got some nice feedback on the tones. Absolutely happy with the purchase. Highly recommended. Warm tones with finger picking as well as slapping style

Great pickup for MM Style Basses

Purchased this pickup as a replacement for a MusicMan style bass I was building. This pickup performs as advertised and has a deep warm tone on the low end and the mid/treble side was bright and clear. Definitely worth the cost. This made my hand crafted kit guitar the best sounding of all my basses.
I was a bit dismayed however that they did not include a wiring diagram with it but if you google Seymour Duncan Music Man Pickup wiring the schematic is readily available on the web.
