Summary
Harmonically rich hybrid-coil Trembucker that uses one coil
from the 59 Model and one coil from the higher output Duncan Custom
model.
Description
The 59Custom Hybrid
Trembucker is a medium output, gritty sounding humbucker that sparkles
with upper midrange harmonic content. The brainchild of our incredibly
knowledgable forum members, this humbucker is the result of experimental
coil swapping in order to push into new tonal territory. The mismatched
coils, and the alnico 5 bar magnet keep the low end nice and tight, and
give the treble a grittiness almost like a mini-humbucker. When split,
you get the 7k coil for a much more usable single coil sound.Match with
the 59 neck or Jazz neck model for a nicely balanced setup.Trembuckers
have wider pole piece spacing, perfect for symmetrical positioning under
the strings of guitars with a tremolo or wide spaced hard tail bridge
(2 or wider from the center of the Low E to High E directly over the
bridge pickup). Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the
59Custom Hybrid Trembucker uses an alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver
bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is
vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
