A classic P-90, with traditional P-90 sound. P-90's have been making some of the best sounds around for over 50 years.

The Unicorn is vintage wound but at the hotter, fatter end of the vintage range. Very simple, very effective and very versatile.

Unicorn bridge and neck units are wound to be hum-cancelling in the middle position when combined with each other or the tapped single coil sounds of Gemini humbuckers.

A P-90 for the 21^st century. Where vintage P-90's growl, this one howls and screams. Hot wound, high output P-90 with extended harmonic range

A hot wound, high output P-90 with extended harmonic range producing more drive and more focus.

A P-90, with a retro Charlie Christian style sound and a switchable vintage P90 sound

The Seraphim has compound wire coils. A first layer of very heavy wire is used for the CC sound. This is then overwound with a finer wire to produce the full P-90 sound.

The CC sound is very open, has great clarity without any of the harshness normally found on bright pickups. It's designed for Jazz, so don't expect rich mid-range harmonics for good overdrives. However, switch up to the full P-90 sound and the Seraphim delivers that as well.

A P-90, with a 50's / 60's style jangly beatbacker sound and a switchable hot P90 sound

The Cherubim has compound wire coils. A first layer of wire is used for the beatbacker sound. This is then overwound with a finer wire to produce the full P-90 sound.

The beatbacker sound drove the british invasion of the 60's, as well as being famous for it's use in 12 string folk rock. The Cherubim provides this for any guitar that takes a P-90, with the additional advantage of switching up to a full P-90 sound for a wide range of blues and rock sounds.

The Manticore offers all the sweetness of a standard vintage mini humbucker but with a slightly meatier tone and improved definition. It has more than enough output thanks to a pair of Alnico V blade magnets and hotter windings. Firebird style mini humbuckers have a unique sound, not only are they bright but they are more focused than other pickups. The manticore has a strong attack, giving it that urgency that was such a big part of the british sounds of the 60's and 70's.

Wire SWG 46, Alnico V magnets, 2 conductor wiring.

Satyr

The Satyr is a modern take on the Firebird mini humbucker. It still has the same Alnico V blade magnets but it uses a fine wire to produce a pickup that is not only bright but has very strong focussed mids and a tight bass. It has an overall feel of bright top, warm bottom that many players love. This allows it to be used at high gain settings without sacrificing clarity but still achieving a fully saturated sound. Note to note definition is exceptional and the harmonics are a real joy.

Wire AWG 44, Alnico V magnets, 2 conductor wiring.

Qilin

The Qilin has a single Alnico II bar magnet and a pair of 3mm carbon steel blades through the coils. The neck pickup reproduces the sounds of a vintage deluxe mini humbucker with just a small increase in output and improvements in clarity and definition. The bridge pickup is full of hot vintage tone, bright, brash and aggressive. Like all Alnico II humbuckers, the Qilin is very responsive to playing dynamics. If you're looking for an expressive pickup for blues and vintage rock, the Qilin really hits the mark.

Wire AWG 42 (Neck), AWG 43 (bridge), Alnico II magnet, 2 conductor wiring.

DC Resistance: Neck 6.4k, Bridge 9.4k.

The Mountain Queen is constructed like the Qilin with carbon steel blades and a single bar magnet, but in this case an Alnico V. The neck pickup has a typical PAF style winding but using slightly finer wire. The result is a pickup that replaces brashness with sweetness and aggression with soul, a beautiful pickup for almost any style from jazz to rock. The bridge pickup is hot wound with extra fine wire to produce thick, rich tones with incredible harmonics way beyond anything normally associated with mini humbuckers. The Mountain Queen bridge unit is a rock machine par excellence.

The Fire Drake is a high output deluxe mini humbucker. The same construction as the Qilin and Mountain Queen but with a ceramic magnet. Combiined with hot windings, this provides a less middly tone with lots of bottom end grunt.
