Like a mini humbucker you get two thin narrow bobbins, packed with hand-wound wire coils.

One with a mini bar magnet, the other with yet another bar magnet!

Firebirds are not designed like a mini or regular humbucker and sounds like neither.

Slightly mismatched coils produce a bright snappy tone with an emphasis on the upper mids and treble. 

​

Shielded two wire output as standard. See below for Options.

​

FletcherBirds are Modern size and might not fit well within vintage guitars:

Dimensions - 68mm(L - 80mm including mounts) x 28mm (W) x 16.5mm ( H - 26mm including mounts)

Overwound Underwound

All Vintage wind AWG43 pickups can be overwound by 5% to Vintage-Hot for a more edgy, gritty sound. (AWG 42 vintage spec fills the bobbin, so can be wound no more).

All pickups can be underwound by up to 10% for a cleaner, clearer vibe, recommended on semi/hollow bodies or bodies with an overly dark tone.

Overwound recommended for bright bodies, or just more dirt! Contact me directly to discuss this option.
