Designed by pickup guru TIM Shaw, the robust-sounding double-tap pickup is a revolutionary breakthrough in humbucking pickup technology. This unique, patent-applied-for design combines full-throat humbucking and articulate single-coil voices, while eliminating volume loss in single-coil mode. A special Alnico 4 magnet creates an expressive, well-defined voice that's highly musical and dynamic. A light wax potting controls runaway feedback without compromising response.
