Like its legendary namesake, this handmade neck pickup delivers a rich, deep tone with round top end and long sustain. The output is comparable to a P-90 or Imperial humbucker. While ideal for jazz players it also works well with moderate tube amp distortion. It's made with low resistance coil wound with 38-gauge wire - just like the original Charlie Christian pickups - along with a nickel plated blade pole piece and Alnico bar magnets.
