These are brand new Collins Sky Ranger - model T-104 Modern Humbuckers
This custom set hand-wound modern humbuckers feature open facing and a blue Maple insert. Made with the finest materials. The scale is 49.2mm like vintage PAF fits Les Paul style and two humbucker type guitars. Can be used on imports but check scaling will fit most mounting rings without any modifications. This is a double slug pickup with A4 magnet.
The neck pickup is wound to PAF spec and is smooth as butter, full of woman tones while the bridge pickup is overwound 20% to bring out the punch in the mids and sings with tone humbuckers are known for. Pinch harmonics ring with ease and effortless taps. But unlike their PAF counterparts these are wound with a beautiful red modern 43AWG single poly wire, taped and double potted to silence microphonics.
