Great pickups, but maybe not for Warwick basses
I replaced stock MEC pickups on Warwick Corvette Rockbass. I thought the replacement process will be easy, but it wasn't - the pickups are a little bigger than original MEC pickups and it was REALLY hard to put it there.
Regarding the sound - the difference between stock pickups and these DiMarzio is huge! It was worthy of all my efforts to put it in the bass.
Highly recommend these pickups but check twice if your bass is compatible with them!

Not right for my bass
These are good value quality pickups. They have an incredible air, the top end clarity is outstanding and at the same time they have a great bottom. They're meant to be voiced with a modern scooped sound, great for slap, etc. The problem is that they didn't work well with my all-maple neck-through, a combination with no midrange to speak of.
In the end I swapped them with Dimarzio Area-Js, which are awesome pickups!
I suspect they would work much better with typical jazz basses that use warmer woods.
Also, make sure they will fit your existing pickup cavities.

good product
Excellent jazz sound, but prepare for angle installation if your bass has norrow neck. They are realy big.
