i ordered these off of stevesmusiccenter.com since guitar center only had the p-bass pickups for some reason but steves music center was great fast shipping good price. i think it was around 120 for the whole thing.

these pickups rule. they sound so much better than the old standard fender pickups. the slap tone is so much better. and they are very quiet even with the treble all the way up. with the old fender pickups if you put the 2 pickups at different volume than there would be alot of noise not so with the EMGs. They complement my badass II bridge very well. installation was fairly easy. the quick connect cables help a whole lot. the soldering is easy.

string squeak seems louder. be sure you have a semi-nice bass alreay because they still wont make a $80 bass sound amazing, better yes, but still not as good as they could sound

quality pots. easy to install.no problems whatsoever.

they are the best things ever. my bass inclding all the upgrades costs about $550 i think it sounds better than the $2000 pedulla i played at guitar center.
