I have taken this into consideration and it is my hope to insert a phase reverse switch into the PB Pickup so, when used in conjunction with the Bridge Pickup it can be switched to parallel, and will be out of phase. That being said, when using Jazz Basses, I usually had the Neck Pickup backed off a touch which introduced an element of noise. I just had to make sure my system was working well..... (and quietly)

Alternately...

Anyone selling Noise Cancelling J Bass Bridge Pickups????
