Fletcher Pickups is a small scale Custom Shop of high quality hand wound pickups,
made-to-order using vintage spec parts, quality British-made Alnico magnets and only hand/scatter winding; for electric guitars & a small selection of passive Bass.
I also produce drop-in wiring looms which can be fully modified for those Tone Junkies.
As well as a selection of PCB solutions to make modifying you own loom more simple for Phase, series/parallel and splitting solutions - including my own Variable split mod to dial in your split Humbucker Tone.
What's different between Fletcher Pickups and any other brand?
I use a hand-cranked winding machine, which is slower and much more difficult to use than a conventional motor driven winder. This results in supreme control of the coil pattern and coil tension and allows for more scattering of the coil, reducing the inherent capacitance, creating a richer, brighter tone (I tried using a motor, but preferred the sound the hand-cranked pickups produced!).

I am a Custom Shop so none of my specifications are set in stone - almost.
If you require something different to what is shown or something that is not shown at all, just get in touch and I shall attempt to achieve the voice you're looking for.
If you're searching for a new tone, or just want to experiment I will happily help.
