Vintage '58 Humbucker

Wound with a much lower number of turns per layer and high bobbin offset, these humbuckers have a bright, but full tone, which is harmonically rich that really nails the classic "Tele on steroids" sound that many vintage humbuckers are famous for. Both positions use rough-cast A3 magnets, with the neck hand-wound to approximately 8.0k, and the bridge to approximately 8.2k. Made with 42awg plain enamel wire, butyrate bobbins*, nickel-silver baseplate, maple spacers and specially selected steel pole-pieces, slugs and keeper bars. Available uncovered or with nickel, raw nickel, brushed nickel, chrome or gold covers. Bobbin options include double black, zebra, reverse zebra, double cream** or double white. As standard these pickups are not wax potted to achieve a more open and detailed sound.
