Do yourself a favor - Listen with a decent set of headphones to get the best listen to the audio tracks in the video. Your phone or computer’s speakers are poor, they neuter bass frequencies and are a true compromise in this situation. Youtube applies compression to all videos, and this does affect the audio quality, unfortunately.

::: Our general feelings about the NP4:::
The NP4 is an excellent vintage oriented Precision Bass® pickup. This is one of Carey Nordstrand’s early designs, and it has truly stood the test of time. For years now, the NP4 and the stock Fralin P were two pickups that we were regularly being asked to compare. Our basic feeling is that the NP4 is similar to the Fralin, but with a few notable differences: The NP4 feels like it has a bit more emphasis in the upper mid range - giving it a bit more brightness, and less in the low mid range. The NP4 is a bit less bright than the Fralin. On the whole, the NP4 sounds slightly more focused than the Fralin P.

As always, keep in mind that these are generalizations. Your experience could be different depending on many factors.

In Logic Pro X, we used an amp modeler, the ’60s Combo’, which is intended to emulate an Ampeg B-15. There is a slight bit of compression and a high pass filter at 40 Hz. For continuity and evaluation purposes, these settings are applied across all of our demo videos.
