Halcyon humbuckers were born out of an intense R&D session with Mike Stringer, Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood and Tim Mills during a stopover in the UK on Mike’s intense Spiritbox touring sc hedule. To embrace not only Mike’s massive driven tone, but also his unique approach to using bridge and neck pickups together for his clean tones. The die was cast and Mike went back on tour for some heavy beta testing. By the end of the run all of Mike’s live guitars featured the new Halcyon pickups. Halcyons are built on a twin blade pole design which allows for even string to string balance, no matter the string gauge or tuning, whilst being extremely practical for multi-scale fitment too. The bridge is powered by a trio of custom size ceramic magnets which help to control the bottom end response, working in conjunction with the hot wind to deliver an incredibly dialled in mid-range and high end attack. Utilising a more moderate wind, the neck pickup is powered by an isotropic Alnico V magnet to increase dynamic headroom and combine with the bridge for Mike’s ambient clean tones. Both pickups are designed to have exceptional coil split tones and work equally well wired in parallel. Show more
