I have two basses, one P and one J. The P is my favourite soundwise. Both are setup for using the four lowest strings of a five string set, so just selling the J and buying a P includes some setup work that I'd like to avoid.
Are there pups available on the market that will make my J sound a bit more like the P? What I'm looking for is the classic "P-bass and Ampeg rock sound".
Roll off the volume with your bridge pickup and keep the neck pickup full on.

Some people are like Slinkies . . . not really good for anything, but you
still can’t help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

No. No way. You can't make a pickup with a tall skinny coil sound like a pickup with a short fat coil. Not even close.
