Classic Wilkinson Vintage 60’s WVS with staggered polepieces single coil pickups made in Korea
These 60’s replica pickups offer amazing vintage warmth and tone. The set benefits from having a slightly hotter output than most standard Mex and SQ. pickups yet still provide vintage ‘ST’ bell-like tones with sweet quack in positions 2 and 4, a full, bright bridge setting and lovely nasal neck tones. The magnets really focus the magnetic field on your strings while the vintage stagger give you the traditional articulate sparkle. The middle pickup is reverse wound and reverse polarity, so that it cancels the hum as a ‘humbucker’ when used as a set the neck / middle, middle / bridge combination in position 2 & 4 on a traditional 5 way switch.
The guitar strings will vibrate less the nearer they get to the bridge. Less movement mean less voltage created by the pickup and a noticeable drop in volume. To solve it, bridge pickup is slightly overwound to increase the output and balance the set.
