Description

These pickups capture the sound of Jazzmaster’s build in the mid 60’s. Build with Alnico 5 Magnets for a full bodied and rich sound and wound with 42 AWG Heavy Formvar wire these pickups are a perfect replacement for those in the need of this classic sound.

The neck pickup on a 1966 Jazzmaster has a full, rounded sound that is well-suited for playing lead lines and melodies, with a warm, mellow tone that is perfect for jazz and blues. The bridge pickup has a bright, punchy sound that is perfect for playing rhythm guitar or adding some extra sparkle to solos.

Overall, the pickups on a 1966 Jazzmaster are known for their warm, dynamic sound, with a relatively low output that emphasizes the guitar’s natural tone and character. This unique sound has made the Jazzmaster a popular choice for guitarists in a wide range of genres, from jazz and blues to indie rock and beyond.

Scatterwound to vintage specs and wax potted, but only to a degree to set the coil but still leave enough room for clarity and dynamics.

The bridge pickup is RWRP to buck hum in the middle position. However we can, if you want, do it the Leo-way and leave both pickups the same.

Comes with covers (select your desired colour) and mounting screws.
