how to buy

SINGULARITY pickups are true, huge, fat single coils. When you want a pro-level pickup, but you want it as simple as possible, this is your choice. They are massive for a deep, thick voice.
We make products for professional musicians, so of course that these pickups are fully shielded and sealed. The magnetic circuit projects an even, but asymmetric field to the strings which gives you a natural voice. They have a blade core design, so you don’t have to worry about string alignment.
We have special versions for neck (Bass, -B) and bridge (Treble, -T) positions. They are opposite polarity, so they hum-cancel with each other when both pickups are at the same volume. The bridge pickup has a higher output than the neck pickup. They are wired with shielded coax cable for maximum noise immunity even from a single coil.
