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. -

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 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)

This order channel is for a single pickup. Go back to a page and choose Mixed Sets of Bass Pickups if that's what you want. It's perfect for attention-grabbing solos with a dynamic tap, slap n smack style of the bass virtuoso. However, they are versatile multifaceted chameleons and can easily step back into the rhythm section after the applause subsides. And we did it without active electronics so, "look, Ma.... no batteries". -

All Kinman humbuckers have more than a hint of piano mid tones, some have more than others. The trick is to engineer a stringy sound from the low wound strings without overstepping into the territory of twang. Guitar players often complain that humbuckers are, at the same time, too trebly and not trebly enough. What we have done is to sweeten the high’s on the plain strings and remove those overly present nasty ear-splitting upper midrange spikes, while simultaneously emphasizing piano mid tones of the wound strings. It sounds simple enough but there are challenges that must be solved on a technical level in order for this delicate balancing act to be accomplished. -

Kinmanusa PAF Plus Humbucker Bridge & PAF Astound Humbucker Neck. The PAF Plus is a much improved PAF which works better in the neck position than conventional humbuckers and is excellent for the bridge position too if you want noticeably less dirty growl and grind than a regular humbucker. Featuring vastly improved Tone / definition / clarity on the wound strings with minimized blurring from the low notes in the neck position, thanks to Kinmanusa’s Triple Alnico Tone advantage. The neck position has well defined and clear low notes that have a strong hint of twang and a nice dose of piano tones in the mids.
