Classic Amplification takes a different approach than most pickup winders, we refrain from having a menu system or naming our pickups to reflect a particular genra, artists, or venue. Our approach is to wind pickups to suit the customer's need. When you order a pickup from us we communicate with you before we wind a single turn of wire. To define your desired tone and spec's, the instrument's character, the gear used, in this way we can get you closer to your target tone.
Because the needs of all players vary (a lot) in their styles, picking attack, guitar electronics and other equipment, there is just no such thing as "one size fits all" in the tone business, so...
- We can wind you a Classic Vintage Humbucker (aka; Patent Applied For) getting you that classic vintage humbucker tone.
- We can wind you a Classic Rock Humbucker to suit a rock player's style and tone, normally hotter than the "Patent Applied For" tone, suitable for that late 70's-80's hard rock style, or we can wind you a modern (mid-scoop) powerhouse "chunking" pickup if you desire.
- We can wind you a Classic Blues Humbucker to suit a blues player's style and tone needs. more dynamic and rich in character, they help bring out a players touch like when switching between a pick and the fingers. Players with the right amplifier setup can get great note-bloom with these.
- We can wind you a Classic Country Humbucker to suit a country player's style and tone needs, bringing out more bounce and quack (if desired), these are the cleanest tone of all our humbuckers and intended for those who would like to play their Gibson but find themselves reaching for their Fender all too often.
- We can wind you a Classic Jazz Humbucker to suit a jazz player's style and tone needs, bringing out more bottom-end and rich, smooth, smoldering tones.
All Classic humbucker pickups can be wound with matched or offset coils, sets can be purchased in balanced (equally wound) or calibrated (bridge hotter).
and voiceing can be adjusted to suit your style. No extra charge for 4-conductor lead wire for coil or phase switching applications.
(must specify wire type at time of order)
