DISC Hagstrom HB-8 8 String Bass Guitar, Black

Full Description

Hagstrom Dyna Rail Pickups

Made with high quality Alnico V magnets, the two Hagstrom Dyna Rail humbucker pickups deliver a fat, punchy vintage tone. The rotary pickup selector switch offers six different configurations, allowing you to easily find your perfect tone for virtually any style. In positions 4-6, both coils of the selected pickup(s) are activated, giving you a full, thick and resonant sound. However, in positions 1-3, the pickups are split to activate the outer coils only, yielding a slightly thinner and quieter tone with a clear, bright high end. See below for the full list of pickup configurations.

Pickup Configurations using the 6-way Rotary Switch:

1. Neck + Bridge, Single Coil (Outer Coils)
2. Bridge, Single Coil (Outer Coil)
3. Neck, Single Coil (Outer Coil)
4. Neck + Bridge, Humbucking (All Coils)
