D'Urbano Magnetics FIREBIRD MINI HUMBUCKER BRIDGE PICKUP ALNICO 2 Nickel

HANDMADE IN OUR WORKSHOPS HERE IN MELBOURNE

THESE PICKUPS ARE THE CULMINATION OF MANY YEARS OF R&D

THIS IS A CALIBRATED SET DESIGNED TO TO BE TIGHT AND PUNCHY WITHOUT BEING TOO TOPPY

THESE PICKUPS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED PERSONALLY BY MYSELF USING ONLY THE BEST COMPONENTS SOURCED FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND ARE CAREFULLY MADE INDIVUALLY BY US.

THEIR DESIGN IS BASED ON THE ORIGINAL 1963 FIREBIRD PICKUPS USING ALNICO V BLADES AND A SPECIALLY DESIGNED MAGNETIC CIRCUIT TO ACHIEVE THE CLASSIC FIREBIRD TONE. I HAVE BEEFED THEM UP A LITTLE BUT STILL RETAIN THE CHARACTER OF THE CLASSIC FIREBIRD PUP.

UNFORTUNATELY GIBSON IS NO LONGER MAKING THEIR PICKUPS LIKE THE ORIGINALS, AND ARE WINDING THEM TO 15K AND USING CERAMIC MAGNETS.... NOTHING LIKE THE ORIGINALS. (GOOGLE THE GUITAR FORUMS FOR MORE DETAILS).

I HAVE PERSONALLY BEEN USING THESE PUPS IN MY OWN GUITARS AND GIGGED THEM EXTENSIVELY AND AM EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE TONE AND PERFORMANCE FOR CLASSIC ROCK AND BLUES

NECK PICKUP IS NASTY, CHIMEY AND CLEAR WITHOUT BEING TOO BRIGHT, BOTTOM END IS TIGHT
