The Eternal Timeless Mini-Humbucker Set captures the clear, articulate chime and focused punch that made mini-humbuckers a favourite among players who need clarity, touch sensitivity, and vintage warmth — all with the added benefit of hum-cancelling performance.
Blending the warmth of a great PAF-style humbucker with the focus and bite of a single-coil, these handwound, scatter-wound pickups offer crisp note separation, harmonically rich mids, and sweet, singing highs — making them perfect for everything from rootsy blues and rock 'n' roll to chiming cleans and articulate overdrive.
With tighter bass, clearer highs, and a slightly compressed attack, mini-humbuckers sit perfectly between single-coils and full-size humbuckers, giving you clarity when clean and focused punch when driven. The neck pickup is warm and articulate, with just enough top-end sparkle to cut through, while the bridge pickup adds midrange punch and vintage-style bark, without ever losing clarity.
Authentic Materials & Boutique Craftsmanship
Every Timeless Mini-Humbucker is built using period-correct components, from the nickel silver covers to the plain enamel wire and correctly sized bobbins. Individual steel poles and a steel slug powered by an Alnico 2 or 5 bar magnet, wound by hand and lightly potted, they offer the organic feel and dynamic response that only a handmade pickup can deliver.
True to the original design, each pickup is built with:
- Dual hand-wound coils
- Individual Steel pole pieces and a steel slug
- Alnico 2 or 5 bar magnet
- Nickel silver covers
- Plain enamel wire
Every set is scatter-wound by hand to ensure organic harmonic response, natural air, and the dynamic touch sensitivity that makes these pickups feel alive under your fingers.
