Untraditional
Vintage Pickups that Never Existed
I don't do a lot of traditional pickups. I'm a weird guy and I do weird pickups, but of course I'm inspired by vintage pickups. The Untraditional series is a collection of vintage inspired pickups that were never actually made. They're a combination of several styles or a certain style pickup in a shape/size that was never offered. Anyway, check it out.
Nosquire
The Nosquire combines elements from all the Pre-Telecaster Tele bridge pickups. The Esquire, Broadcaster, and Nocaster. Hand-beveled A3 rod magnets, 42awg plain enamel hand-scatterwound to 9k. When I finally tried out this combo I knew I could offer something different than all the other Tele bridge pickups out there. If you're looking for a clear, woody, percussive, early 50s style Tele bridge pickup this one is for you. It's available in Tele, Strat and 51 P-Bass sizes.
Strat Spec Tele Neck
Put a Strat pickup in the neck of your Tele without chopping anything up.
'53 Strat: According to legend this is what was in the prototype Strat. Beveled A3 rod magnets, 42 heavy formvar hand-scatterwound to 5k with a steel reflector plate, wax potted. Stratier than strat glassy goodness.
Black Bottom: Based on a real life '59 Strat set I worked on. Staggered, beveled A5 magnets, 42 heavy formvar, 5.4k, wax potted.
Grey Bottom: Based on a '69 Strat set. Staggered, flattop A5 magnets, 42PE, 5.7k, lacquer potted.
