Detail 01
Zebra finish
One black bobbin, one cream, coils exposed. Purely cosmetic, but it only looks right on guitars without pickup covers.

What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Neck position
Designed for the neck slot. Moving it to the bridge changes the balance between positions and usually disappoints.
Detail 03
Humbucker size
Drops into a standard humbucker rout with a ring or direct mount. Anything narrower needs routing work.
Detail 04
$99 single unit
The cheapest of these three. Pairing with a matched bridge pickup roughly doubles the total spend.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is zebra just a color option?
Yes. Zebra refers to the black-and-cream bobbin pairing. It does not change how the pickup is built or wired.
02Can I put a cover on it?
Covers can be fitted, but soldering a cover on an uncovered pickup is a job for someone experienced with wax potting.
03Will this fit a Les Paul style guitar?
Standard humbucker routs accept it. Check whether your guitar uses mounting rings or direct-to-body mounting first.
04Do I need the matching bridge pickup?
No, but a mismatched pair can leave one position noticeably louder. Consider output balance when picking a bridge pickup.
