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 Seymour Duncan SPB-2 Hot Precision Bass® Pickup :::
Direct low end that doesn’t get flabby. Comparing with Aguilar’s 4P-Hot (another ‘hot’ pickup), the low end of the SPB-2 is tighter and not as wide…it is more direct. The lower mid range is present in a pleasing way…slightly dark but the overall EQ is not scooped, and the upper mids are present without being honky. When comparing to Duncan’s SPB-3, we hear the slight darkness in the lower mids of the SPB-2, as well as a less pronounced upper mid range and top end. Overall, the SPB-2 has a slightly narrow sonic range…don’t take ‘narrow’ to mean something negative, it can help you get a punchy bass sound.

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.
