Charlie Christian | Humbucker sized

Inspired by the legendary Charlie Christian pickup, this version draws from its distinctive tonal character and is designed for standard humbucker routing, with a full-bodied tone, open dynamics and rich harmonic detail.

The Neck version delivers a rich, warm and spacious tone with a rounded low end, smooth highs and excellent note definition. It has the depth and sweetness needed for classic jazz and blues, while remaining clear and responsive when playing chords, single-note lines or more dynamic phrasing.

The Bridge version has a stronger voice, with more pronounced mids, tighter lows and a more immediate pick attack. It offers additional presence and drive, while retaining the clarity and dynamic response that define this pickup.

Both versions feature a wide blade-style sensing element, providing an even response across the strings and excellent dynamics. The result is a pickup with plenty of harmonic detail, a strong fundamental and a remarkably open feel under the fingers.

As a set, the Neck and Bridge versions complement each other beautifully, covering everything from warm jazz and expressive blues to roots, rock and more aggressive overdriven tones.
