BIG BIRD Firebird STYLE Humbucker Pickup

HANDMADE LARGE HUMBUCKER FIREBIRD

ALNICO 5 MAGNETS

NICKEL AND GOLD COVERS AVAILABLE

HANDMADE IN OUR WORKSHOPS HERE IN MELBOURNE

THIS IS A CALIBRATED SET DESIGNED TO TO BE TIGHT AND PUNCHY WITHOUT BEING TOO TOPPY

THEIR DESIGN IS BASED ON THE ORIGINAL 1963 FIREBIRD PICKUPS USING ALNICO V BLADES AND A SPECIALLY DESIGNED MAGNETIC CIRCUIT TO ACHIEVE THE CLASSIC FIREBIRD TONE.  I HAVE BEEFED THEM UP A LITTLE BUT STILL RETAIN THE CHARACTER OF THE CLASSIC FIREBIRD PUP.

IN THE LARGE HUMBUCKER FORMAT, YOU CAN NOW GET FIREBIRD TONES IN YOUR LES PAUL, 335, OR EVEN 2H STRAT

I HAVE PERSONALLY BEEN USING THESE PUPS IN MY OWN GUITARS AND GIGGED THEM EXTENSIVELY AND AM EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE TONE AND PERFORMANCE FOR CLASSIC ROCK AND BLUES. THEY SPLIT VERY WELL AND HAVE A GREAT SINGLE COIL CHIME

NECK PICKUP IS NASTY, CHIMEY AND CLEAR WITHOUT BEING TOO BRIGHT, BOTTOM END IS TIGHT
