GCS-1
Many single coil pickup users tend to replace bridge pickup to get hotter and heavier guitar tones. The Giovanni GCS-1 was created to achieve a hotter sound than other Vintage Single pickup series. It has more sustain, a full range of tone shaping, and an extremely balanced high output. Each characteristic pickup caters to any players style.
Here is the general tone guidance when using the GCS-1 set:
Chunky crunch blues sound (GCS-1 neck pickup), sensitive pure clean sound (2 and 4 pickup selector positions on the GCS-1 with S-S-S set, hum-cancelling operation with Reverse Wounded middle pickup), gorgeous midrange and balanced clear sound (GCS-1 Middle pickup, RWRP - Reverse Wound Reverse Polarity), Fat, rich, and powerful high output, with more sustains (GCS-1 Bridge pickup). For these reasons, different wire guages are used in GCS-1 set. Each neck and middle pickup is wound with special #42 gauge formvar coil to add more rich and powerful vintage sound. GCS-1 bridge pickup is wound with #43 gauge formvar to get thick and full midrange of tone shape. Each pickup coil turns is measured by customized and computerized coil winder for accurate resistance and tension. Alnico5 magnet, slightly beveled pole- piece, black fiber bobbin, cloth wire are used to get custom sound with authentic vintage tone. Each different staggered pole piece height can make you feel the delicacy of each individual string with your own picking attack.
