Hope I'm not out of line posting in this section - thought I'd get a better response than posting in the parts forum.
I'm after a new set of pickups for the PJ bass, preferably the EMG PJ set but if there's anything else out there that's noise cancelling and sounds good then let me know and I'll check it out.
Thanks in advance.

IMO, the EMG active pickups with rod magnet polepieces sound more convincing than the closed top models with the blade poles. Having said that, the EMG-P in my cheap old Charvel CX492 sounds huge.
Seymour Duncan/Basslines active bass pickups are easily as good as EMG. For some instruments, they may sound more appropriate.
Bartolini pickups have their own thing going on. Aguilar and Norstrand both make some lovely pickups. They should be at the price! I cold go on.
Back on topic. What bass guitar is going to host these pickups? How much space does it have for multiple control pots and switches?
Thanks for your input @Funkfingers.
They will be going in a Squier Affinity PJ bass. It plays ok but sounds a bit flat and hollow to me. I almost pulled the trigger on a MIM Geddy Lee sig bass but for the use I'd give it I think upgrading the bass I already have is more sensible.

Purely for recording purposes.
