Introducing the "Dual Foil" Humbucking Gold Foil.

Mojopickups

I'll be adding these to the website soon, custom made in the UK covers.
These are a true Gold Foils but dual bobbin for humbucking, they'll also be available splittable so that you can switch to a single coil.
They are quite big 90x54x9mm.....they need to be to get both coils inside
I'll be making some minor tweaks byt will be ready very soon.

An interesting looking pickup!

Wow! Would be great in a strat with the swimming pool route

impmann

Oooh... that looks rather cool.

Hubba hubba !

Any chance of a pic next  to the more usual suspects.  How does it compare in size to a wide range for instance?

@Mojopickups ;

Are pole pieces under the cover or a rail/blade type underneath set for a particular string spacing?

They use blade shaped magnetic rubber stuff

@WezV here you go.

Cheers.  I must admit that has me very tempted.    I have a tele with a swimming pool route that it would fit into easy enough...

Mojopickups

@WezV here they are in a Jazzmaster to give you an idea of size, they fit in a standard Jazzmaster route.

that does look awesome.   I have been going back and forth on the tele.  I want an unusual neck pickup for it...

just slightly worried because a wide range manages to look even larger when put on a normal  tele plate - like this




time for a  photoshop mockup I think

WezV

you know, it might just work!

@WezV I'm going to have to build a Tele now!

Do you do anything unusual looking in a tele bridge pickup format?  

I am thinking purely aesthetically here as I am rather happy with the bridge pickup it already has (an older model BKP flat 50), but can't help thinking there would be something that looks a bit better.  I suppose gold foil tele bridge pickup would look OTT even if it was possible... but blade or stapletop (staples angled to follow the strings.. not much room for a coil??)  could look immense if it worked.

Tonally, do you know how do these play with other pickups yet?   I don't mind a tonal mismatch, often I prefer it to a paired set, but I like to keep volume balance in the right ballpark if possible.

I need a couple of mustang pickups too and should be in a position to order by the end of the week

For something of a smaller footprint, I can't recommend enough the Speedbump Marc made me I have in the neck of my guitar.  HB sized but is a bit GF coloured for tone.

I'm thinking of going for the GF HB in the bridge, Hershey Bar in the neck for my Trohman Tele (when the funds allow!)
