8-5 12.5K.*Įxact reproductions of the original Gretsch type Filtertron pickups but in a full sized humbucker housing. Available as a hotter 8-5 Special Humbucker as well for more gain and presence. Covers come in nickel, chrome, raw nickel, gold or burnt chrome. Turn it down a little on the guitar and it sounds like a single coil with no hum. The string to string balance is unrivalled in a humbucker. All this creates a humbucker with the clarity and articulation of a single coil, especially on the trebel strings. Under the 3x3 cover are "focuser" slugs that push the magnetic field back onto itself. With our award winning unique design using both Alnico IV and V magnets and dual coils that control the bass 3 strings and treb 3 strings separately. 4 conductor wiring for all the options with your choice of nickel, chrome, raw nickel, gold or burnt chrome. The trebs will sustain all day while the bass is full without being muddy or overpowering. The Machine House is a high gain humbucker available in 12.5K to 18K (depending on the tone/gain you require) and using 3 magnets a large Alnico V for the main central magnet and 2 ceramic flanks for full thick tone with plenty of gain and fantastic mids. We recommend using an Alnico V House Special neck (the 5-8 set) for a matched set that creates that does everything from mellow jazz to blues, classic rock and 80's metal. Comes with 4 conductor wire to offer even more versatility and chice of all cover styles in most finishes. This is mix of the best qualities of both Alnico and ceramic magnets. Wound to 12.5K with 43 awg wire and using a powerful Alnico VIII magnet for high gain, screaming trebs when cranked but cools down to a more vintage tone with plenty of headroom on the cleans. The Steel House was designed to be a versatile humbucker for when you need your guitar to run through many different styles. Also the classic 5-5 set for more aggressive blues and classic rock tones. Popular matched sets are the 3-5 set which is great for a vintage voiced jazz and blues style with plenty of clarity but good bite on the bridge and mids on the neck without any mud. Choice of any of our humbucker covers (H, 11, 6 hole, no hole, open top and foils) in choice of nickel, chrome, raw nickel, gold, black or burnt chrome.
