Frequently asked questions
Are the pickup electronics identical between the two?
Yes. Both feature the same Staggered Alnico V pole pieces, 3.20 kHz resonant frequency, 0.7 V RMS output, -115 dBV noise floor, and 400-hour battery life on a single 9V cell.
What's the practical difference in tone between them?
No difference. Both deliver articulate, punchy, high-output character with low noise. The only tonal variables are cover color (negligible) and whether you install the complete control set from Product B.
Which is better for beginners?
Product B is more beginner-friendly because it includes everything needed for installation. Product A requires you to source separate wiring components, controls, and battery clips separately.
Do I need to modify my guitar for either pickup?
No. Both fit standard single-coil routing and require no body modifications. Product B saves time by including all necessary hardware and controls.
