Part descriptions for Vox bass guitars
This page is not yet complete. See also Vox guitar pickups. Some really early JMI Vox bass guitars may have used this pickup, as fitted to several early guitars.
JMI early 1960s chrome V1 single coil pickup
Vox V1, part number 09-101-0. As fitted to all the early UK-built bass models, and several guitars too: Vox Clubman bass, Vox Bassmaster, Vox Symphonic bass and early versions of the Vox Phantom bass. The presence of the VOX logo was not universal, some basses had one or even two plain, others had Vox logos on both pickup covers.
As can be seen, this is a really simple single coil pickup. The windings are covered with waxed cloth. Dimensions: length (excl. mounting tabs) 75mm, screw to screw 89mm, width 21mm. Typical resistance: 6.5-7kΩ. Have a listen to some soundclips of Vox guitars and basses equipped with this pickup here
Early 1960s Crucianelli humbucking bass pickup
Part number . This pickup was fitted to Italian-built Escort, and (early) Cougar basses - those made by Crucianelli - as well as similar basses branded Crucianelli, Elite and (perhaps) Imperial.
Dimensions: length 71mm, width 28mm
Typical resistance: 11.7 kΩ.

Mid 1960s single coil bass pickup (Eko)
