2 Jazz Pickups, EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect cables (2), prewired control set including 2 volume controls, master tone control, output jack, battery clip, and adjustment screws.

EMG-JV to deliver the classic tone and look of the traditional Jazz Bass* and maintain the "faded" attack of the offset pole pieces in combination with our lowest noise preamp. The EMG-JV should appeal to the "retro" in you, while the coil and electronic design will convince you that this is a pickup to be seriously considered. Tone modeling isn't used in the JV, the natural resonance of the coils and their mix has the typical peak of the original Fender Jazz Bass*. This could be just what you're looking for in a fretless pickup.

It's a pickup, It's as durable as all the rest, but the quick connectors seem less likely to break.
