Warman classic zebra PAF humbucker – NECK POSITION ONLY
We’ve taken our popular Zebra classic Humbucker and brought them bang up to retro date with new windings. With new spec coils and magnets for a great vintage sound but with a modern extra punch in the mids.
4 wire output lead, with additional bare earth for coil splitting and we’ve changed the baseplates back to vintage inspired brass to isolate the magnetic field around the coils for even more output and tone. Pickups are wax potted reducing microphonics.
For a full explanation of the wire colours pleases the diagram shown.
Each humbucker pickup has six adjustable pole pieces on the black South coil. The ivory North coil has flat non adjustable pole pieces. All helps keep the Classic vibe going.
- Neck pick up is a warm and sweet 7.14 k-ohms with an inductance of 3.79 Henries. string spacing on this pickup is overall width of 50mm.
To give you some idea of the power of the pickups a DiMarzio ( TM ) Dual sound pickup with the coils in series, i.e at its most powerful setting, has an inductance of 6.4 Henry and an EMG-Select SEHG has an inductance of 4.2 Henry.
The 4 way wire output comes pre-wired as both coils in series for a quick install as humbuckers. Instructions are on our website for wiring these to series, parallel and coil cut all on one switch.
Our classic zebra PAF humbucker gets consistently good reviews from our customers. Here’s a few comments we have received.
