Product Description
The EMG LS P Lee Sklar Signature P Style Pickup Set is a faithful recreation of the precision pickups that powered Lee Sklar’s legendary Frankenstein bass. Built around a pair of reversed EMG P pickups and a tweaked preamp voiced to match Lee’s original 18 volt mod, this set delivers huge low end, powerful output and the crystal clear articulation that has made his tone a studio staple for nearly five decades.
From classic sessions to modern stages, these active pickups give you a focused, mix ready bass sound with effortless consistency. The raised logo caps capture the look of the original units, while EMG’s solderless system makes installation fast and fuss free. If you want the punch, presence and authority of one of the most recorded bass tones in history, the LS P set puts it straight into your hands.
Lee Sklar’s Studio Proven Voice
As one of the most recorded bassists of all time, Lee Sklar has relied on EMG P pickups since the 1970s. The LS P set is built to recreate the exact response of the pickups in his Frankenstein bass, giving you the same clear, articulate tone that impressed producers and players on thousands of sessions. It is a direct route to a sound that simply works in the mix, whatever style you play.
Recreated 18 Volt Mod Preamp
EMG have carefully tweaked the P preamp in this set to mirror the tonal behaviour of Lee’s original 18 volt modified system. The result is a commanding low end with plenty of headroom and output, yet without sacrificing the tight punch and definition EMG are known for. You get a bass tone that feels powerful and controlled, staying clear even under heavy playing and dense arrangements.
Reversed Dual P Configuration
The LS P set is designed around two reversed EMG P pickups, just like the configuration in Lee’s Frankenstein bass. This layout shifts the sensing points of the strings, subtly balancing warmth and clarity across the fretboard. It helps your low strings stay tight and focused while the higher strings remain full and musical, ideal for both supportive lines and more melodic playing.
Classic Look, Modern Convenience
With original style raised logo caps, the LS P set nods directly to the classic EMG units that helped put the brand on the map. Under the hood, EMG’s solderless wiring system makes installation straightforward, letting you upgrade your bass with minimal downtime. You can focus on playing rather than wiring, confident that your pickups will deliver consistent, low noise performance night after night.
