The WOM Bass Pickup from Wilkinson’s M-Series is a modern take on one of the most recognisable bass pickup styles in history. While many bassists associate this shape with the second-most popular bass design after the classic P & J styles, few know that this format was originally another innovation by Leo Fender.

Leo had a deep interest in ceramic magnets — seeing them as a powerful, affordable alternative to aluminium, cobalt and nickel alloys (Alnico). After years of experimenting with magnet materials, he realised that ceramic magnets could offer excellent output, clarity and punch without raising the cost dramatically.

The Wilkinson WOM builds on this philosophy. It’s designed to give bassists a reliable, great-sounding pickup that doesn’t carry boutique-level prices but still produces warm lows, tight mids and crisp highs. Perfect for both modern and vintage-inspired bass tones.
