Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

MortalCoil’s black neck-position model is an active humbucker for a six-string guitar, offering MC1, JB/Jazz-inspired and single-coil-style voices. Its high-density copper coil design and audio-optimized preamp are made to preserve articulation and consistent note definition under aggressive gain, with additional options for clean and edge-of-breakup work. A complete wiring kit and two 25k push/pull pots are included, so the supplied installation package also provides the controls used for switching voices.
