Frequently asked questions
Are these pickups electrically different?
No. Both have 13.65 kΩ DC resistance, 7.37 H inductance, and 1.65 kHz resonant frequency. They deliver the same high-output, punchy passive tone and noise rejection.
Which color should I choose?
Pick White for modern guitar finishes or Ivory for vintage, cream, or light-colored bodies. The choice is purely visual.
Do these suit blues and jazz?
Product B lists blues as suitable, while Product A lists it as not ideal. However, the identical specs suggest both will behave the same way—bright and articulate, better suited to rock and metal than traditional jazz or blues warmth.
What's the long shaft design for?
The long shaft accommodates deeper pickup cavities while maintaining standard humbucker footprint and direct-replacement compatibility, useful for guitars with recessed pickup routes.
