When aroused, it's perfect for attention grabbing solos with the dynamic tap, slap, n smack techniques of the bass virtuoso, and you'll be amazed just how easy it becomes with our Chameleon pickups. As a local bass player who dropped by the factory recently said, "Wow, playing this style is so effortless! I hardly have to exert my fingers and hands. Man, these things are responsive. And I can get all these different sounds; it's amazing" He bought a PJ set there and then and went away in a state of excitement and high spirits to tell all his friends about Kinman. -
Impersonator 52b bridge & Impersonator 52n neck developed specially for this set to be different to the Broadcaster set which has slightly more presence n snap. Do you like a subtle and a sensual feel? The Blackguard set has Old World Tele charm, clear and not too bright with soft-ish attack and a full bottom end. Has old Tele magic and not so bright as modern pickups. We recommend you scroll to the Technical & Application Info section below for important stuff you should know about the new Neck pickup. Some people will call these noiseless Telecaster pickups but Kinman prefers to describe them correctly as Zero-Hum Telecaster pickups. -
Expression through EXTREME Dynamics is the 3rd Dimension and this pickup has it in spades. The sound is Extreme Fender, like no Strat could ever sound like; it has that typical Fendery clang and has amazing prominent piano mid-tones in the low wound strings plus it has P90-like whack attack plus a huge warm lush and sensual bottom end and brilliant highs that have a nice sweet harmonic bloom. Mounted in an all Mahogany guitar the overall sound is a true cross of Fender (with beyond excellent note separation) -and- a P-90 (with it's airy extreme dynamic range, touch sensitivity and it's lush, sensual feel) -

Our 59+ LPS is different to other brands of 59 humbuckers, we think it's vastly superior. You might think it's pricey but considering it outperforms and sounds better than more expensive vintage humbuckers and most '59 originals it's actually a bargain. Listen to the above YouTube demo and read the Report Cards (Tab on the right at top ). Why gamble and spend thousands for a genuine original when you can be certain and buy a Kinman 59+ LPS ? Brett Kingman (ace YouTube demo artist) told us "The 59+ LPS has some of the best cleans I've ever heard and that's why I love them so much. But they are very versatile too and are right at home in country, funk, jazz, jangly as well as rock n roll and the heavier guitar arts". -
Brad Paisley has a lot of love for our Gen-1 AVn-48b, it's his favorite pickup. And now there is this even better new Gen-2 model. The sound of the Gen-2 is even more authentic early Tele, focused with rich tonal complexity and one teriffic twang factor and a lotta air, bell and presence. And, like the original Broadcaster it has a moderately aggressive attitude. -

The AVn-69 is the neck and middle pickups in the Woodstock Plus set. Semi-Aged Sound - less low mid scoop than Non-aged sound models. News flash Apr-2021: Now with our new Synergy baseplate that allows switching off Hum Cancelling as well as switching to 'Synergy' mode. October-2019: The AVn-69 has been upgraded to v2, that is some of our Gen-2 technology has been incorporated to significantly increase loudness and improve the snap of attack. The sound is also more open and detailed. High output with Alnico midrange complexity and detail, exceptional Violin-like sustain under gain, very full bodied tone (no mud) with loads of FEEL, gratifying low end thump and the meaty presence that surpasses regular Strat pickups. It features snappy attack and big dynamic range for a fluid response. -

The Zero-Hum Blues-Jag (Impersonator MV aka modern vintage) is a great pickup for the Bass VI, it is dynamic and responsive, and it has a slightly bolder sound. We think a Texas Jalapeno v3 makes a great companion bridge pickup because it has a higher output level that helps balance the loudness of the bridge and neck. It also has more piano-mid-tones and slightly less treble that agrees with bass. Its sound is open and full of tone, and we believe you'll love the experience. -

Based on our ThickMaster for Jazzmasters this one has a thick, chocolaty growl that agrees with the bass. Our Zero-Hum Jazzmaster pickups have risen to become the number one Go-To noise solutions for Jazzmaster, and the same goes for these. -

The Big-Nine-O (Big Banger) with Kinman's Gen-2 technology. You can expand your sonic horizons with unique new sounds from Kinman, Read more in the details bellow. -
Set of 3. Why do so many guitar players seek out the warm sound of a tube amp? The Blues set is less aggressive, warmer, rounder Aged *Strat sound with milder attack than the Trad Mk-III in clean mode and breaks into crunch more easily. Surprising Alnico detail with less brightness, medium strong output. The Blues set is also great for smooth overdrive sounds with 'clarity and TONE', with Zero-Hum. Low magnetic string pull for longer sustain and less string crash and fret buzz. Quite versatile. Best in a K5 or K7 NoSoldering Harness because some players might find the Blues set in the 'series' mode of the K9 will not have the highs and definition that the Traditional Mk-II and Woodstock's have. -
Designed especially for excellent volume balance with a neck Humbucker this Gen-2 ultra high output single pole bridge pickup with the thump and output level of a P-90 does just that. Our new Tele Neck Blaster and our P90-Bucker are great companion neck pickups for this gutsy bridge pickup. Gen-2 is generation two, a new design utilizing our Patented magnetic focusing device that increases the efficiency of the coil. It's a blast!!! -
Nasty 90 – (formerly Nasty 90n) this version of the P-90 Hx is the Kinman most like a regular P-90 by Gibson. Easy growl on the wound strings and sweet biting plains. Great both-on-together scooped cluck sound. Neck position: Sounds similar to a conventional P-90 but sweeter highs (no offensive mid spikes). Bridge position: Nasty 90 Heavy -very loud, thick, dark and syrupy sonic texture. Sounds similar to and growls and grinds like a humbucker but with better definition on the low wound strings. Huge wall of sound when played loud clean of under gain. -
Do you want heavier and focused tone with lots of dynamics, drive and attitude? Brad Paisleys favorite pickups and you will feel confidently in charge of your guitar sounds too. This set has authentic single coil high end cut and growls more than the twangy 60's Custom set. The excellent dynamic range will delight Tele players who want powerful punch. The middle position of the selector switch produces an intense cluck that some players have said is "to die for". We recommend you scroll to the Technical & Application Info section below for important stuff you should know about the new Neck pickup. The all NEW Gen-2 version neck pickup is very different to it's original 1st generation predecessor. The taller coil, longer magnets and Kinmanusa's patented magnetic focusing device produces non-aged sound which is much more alive and open. The sound is punchier with increased dynamic range for more fluid touch sensitivity (strings feel more relaxed). It's louder and brighter too so it will have to be adjusted somewhat away from the strings to balance with it's companion AVn-48b bridge pickup. Thanks to our new Chrome plated Nickel-Silver cover the neck pickup is not muffled as the original 60's Fender was, has open and clear Fender sound (real Chrome plated for extra durability and does not produce buzz when touched with your finger tips). It has an arched top to allow staggered magnets for superb string loudness balance including the G-3rd. -
The Kinman 'Converge 3' is our Magnum Opus of humbuckers. It's our Piece de résistance, a masterpiece; the most memorable accomplishment of one's career or lifetime, our Magnum Opus ..... and look mum, no battery. Main Points: It's a variable humbucker where three different Zero-Hum sounds converge and all have similar loudness. The caricature sound of a great '59 Gibson humbucker as well as optional P-90 sound -or- the scooped sound of a Gen-2 Tele* 60's Custom bridge ... all from one passive, switchable pickup. -

The new revolutionary Kinman hum-canceling pickup for Jazzmaster featuring low string pull and staggered Alnico rod magnets is alive with dynamic response and oozing with tone and harmonic nuances. The sweet treble tones have not been compromised by Kinman’s technically advanced 600 Ohm hum cancelling mechanism and are silky and sweet …. never spiky or abrasive. The midrange is well balanced with the right amount of detail that delivers exceptional clarity and definition, never veiled or muddy. The bass is defined and well rounded with a nice kick, some refer to as springy sound. The low-string-pull Alnico-K magnets are staggered so the string level balance is exceptionally good. The Kinman FatMaster set has a full bodied sound, bouncy and alive but not thin and gnarly as original Jazzmaster pickups tend to be. The midrange is well balanced with the right amount of detail that delivers exceptional clarity and definition. -

The new V2 is an innovative design created especially for covers that don't have protruding magnets. We have also introduced the Extra bridge version; it balances better with the neck volume-wise and sounds somewhat thicker without compromising treble response or attack (there is no mud). Mustangs have a shorter scale length, so the sound will be more profound, and more throaty than the same pickup in a Strat. -

Remains well defined under high gain amp distortion. -
All NEW Gen-2 Impersonator 52n incorporates newly developed technology and specially made parts engineered to produce our first Tele neck pickup with loud Non-Aged-Sound. We recommend you switch to the Technical Tab to the right for the important stuff you should know about this new model. The sound it produces is non-aged, which means quite dynamic and alive. Behaves like a new non-noiseless pickup and tends to resist crunching too easily under heavy pick attack. Highs with a lot of presence, soft-edged twangy midrange with highly prominent piano mid-tones and lovely deep bass .... and it's loud and punchy. -
Impersonator E56 with Kinman's Gen-2 technology. We changed the name from A56 to E56 (E for enhanced) which better describes this pickup (7-Aug-18).

Impersonator MV (Modern Vintage - formerly known as Impersonator 54 v5) with Kinman's Gen-2 technology
Customer Stuart says ..."These Kinman Impersonator 54 pickups sound very similar to the Bare Knuckle 63 Veneer 64's – but better. There’s more clarity, and there’s more top-end. Honestly, the Kinmans are making my other Strats sound dark – and they’ve got true single coil pickups in them. Noiseless pickups aren’t supposed to have better top-end than true single coil pickups, but these do". (read the Report Card for more)
