This is a modern pickup which offers all that you expect from an Entwistle design, at an affordable price. Featuring nickel poles and ceramic bar magnets, it is punchy and bright in the bridge position, with a complimentary more laid back feel in the neck.

Seriously high powered ceramic rail pickup. The bridge is a fully wound up 15.5K, and the neck comes in at a well balanced 12K. As the X3 is a dual rail design, you can happily use the neck pickup as a bridge pickup for a more articulate top end. Unlike many humbucker designs, you will get nice results when coil splitting.

Here is something a little different. The combination of blade over one of the coils, and pole pieces over the other, combines to form a complex and unusual signal output. Further, when using the 4-core wiring to access the individual coils, unique variation from a single pickup is available.

We decided to take the concept of the Nemesis to the next level. AFG stands for Asymmetrical Field Generator, and the clue is in the name. The Nemesis AFG has a central Alnico V bar magnet, with a ceramic magnet on the blade side of the pickup, creating the asymmetrical magnetic field, which results in a truer single sound when the coil split is activated.

The Dark Star is power pickup, well suited to the heavier genres of rock & metal. It drives effects really well, yet in spite of it’s high DCR of 16K, it is neither dull nor muddy and still sounds good clean.

This is the Neodymium version of the Dark Star, taking things a step further. It is quite possibly the worlds most powerful passive humbucker. The bridge position has a similar DCR to the HDN, but sounds different due to it’s different winding pattern. There are also good results to be had experimenting with coil splits.

HDN, or High Definition Neodymium, was our first neodymium pickup, and in fact one of the very first neodymium pickups in the world. High in output, but with definition that is razor sharp- so much so that some active pickup users have changed over to using the HDN. It really is “Power with Tone”.

The HVX is a versatile medium output pickup. Think of a hotter PAF, with added top, slightly nasal mids and a tight bottom end. Coil splits and parallel wiring perform well, it also excels when wired out of phase with another HVX.

Our take on the classic late ’50s humbucker, made to vintage specifications. Alnico V magnetics, enamel coated winding wire, scatterwound coils, and hard nickel pole pieces. The pickups are wax potted, but unlike modern pickup designs they are not vacuum processed as this reduces the natural gaps in the windings, which is partly responsible the for the vintage flavour and response.

Our overwound version of the classic late ’50s humbucker, made to vintage specifications. Alnico V magnetics, enamel coated winding wire, scatterwound coils, and hard nickel pole pieces. They are overwound, so expect more power, and more warmth than standard version. The pickups are wax potted, but unlike modern pickup designs they are not vacuum processed as this reduces the natural gaps in the windings, which is partly responsible the for the vintage flavour and response.

This is the nickel cover version of the HV 58. Think classic Brit Blues players of the late sixties, the HV58 has the sound down to a tee. The development of this legendary pickup took many hours, and a binful of rejected windings. To get it just right, Alan went on sound over specification, listening for hours to those incredible players on those incredible albums. Fully Beano certified!
