Triple 8 - VIII

This Humbucker is built on the Patent Applied for platform but features Alnico 8 magnets. Slightly overwound coils matched with the strong Alnico 8 Magnet hits the amp hard but it still keeps a classic humbucker tone without harsh highs.

Wound on an antique winding machine with Plain Enamel wire, and processed Alnico 8 Magnets, built around exclusive custom pole screws, precision milled parts and select grade steel for all the components. Every pickup is meticulously hand assembled. Each pickup is individually Serial Numbered and engraved with a logo on the base plate.
