The Bonecaster 90 set has been developed for Telecaster style guitars which have a P90 single coil in place of the standard neck pickup. This set is made up of my classic inspired P90 and Boncaster bridge pickups, this set combines AlNiCo 3 magnets in the neck position, with AlNiCo 5 magnets in the bridge position. The A3 magnets appear in some of the earliest P90 and Telecaster magnets and are known for having a slight boost in the lower mids, a crisp top end, good definition and fantastic sustain. All this gives the pickup a soulful crunch with a vintage voicing overall. The A5 magnets replaced A3 in telecasters after a short period, these are what we've come to know in many pickups. They give the bridge position a strong bottom end, with a bright top. They are also known for having a fairly pronounced mid scoop. This all adds up to them having quite a modern sounding voicing, although due to the power of A5 magnets they do suffer a little from lower levels of sustain. This combination brings together the best of vintage and modern voicings, giving you an amazing array of tones on tap. The DC resistances for these are around: Neck: 8.0 Kohms Bridge: 6.1 Kohms Show more
