Wilkinson WVS 60’s Alnico V Single Coil Guitar Pickups
A very powerful SSS of a 60s style pickups. Staggered pole pieces with chamfered Alnico V magnets. Chamfering the pole pieces focuses the magnetic field giving good highs but still allowing some mids to come through to stop the pickup from sounding thin. Middle pickup is reverse wound/reverse polarity. The bridge pickup is slightly overwound for better balance.
This pickup offers killer early 60s type tone using heavy magnet wire and Alnico V magnets. The magnet spacing is perfect for Fender Strats. The neck offers a super clean tone with the specs at the neck and middle giving a true fat tone with the perfect touch of sparkle and more mid-range presence. The bridge is nice and hot at 7.3k yielding a strong dynamic range for the bridge pickup. The hotter / over winding of the bridge pickup yields incredible mid-range and a strong tight bottom bass end. A superb set of three pickups at a great price.
Pole-spacing: Bridge: 52mm, Middle: 52mm, Neck: 52mm
