• Vint-Aged
    is modeled after the late '60's single coil pickups like the Blues Raider with vintage stagger .187 Alnico 5 magnets oriented
    S-N-S spec and charged full strength and then the magnets are hand weakened to give that old  road worn guitar sounds that comes from years of gigging to develop a vintage sound. They retain the properties of an Alnico V magnet with less string pull and lowered gauss readings.
    These pickups are overwound progressively 5% to bridge for balance
    So what is progressive overwinding? The neck pickup in modeled sets are wound to period specs and additional windings are added in percentages to middle and bridge to raise the midrange and output and to maintain balance when switching between pickups
