Zhangbucker Pickups

Plutonium 239

Picture
Bridge 14.2k/A9, Neck 8.5k/A5
For pricing click here:  ​www.zhangbucker.com/humbuckers.html  and scroll to the bottom.
14.2k with an Alnico 9, that's right, Alnico NINE, magnet.  What is 9 like, compared to Alnico 8?  Even hotter, yes, but with more bite and chainsaw grind -- A9 is to A8 what A5 is to A2, but minus the mid scoop.   (If your guitar is unusually bright, it can be made with an A8.)

It is also made with 12 large screws, so you have the secret weapon of being able to use that second row of screws to dial as much extra midrange in or out as you want by raising or lowering the second set of screws -- only more so because of the wider screws (6/32 vs traditional 5/40).  Use the traditional 6 screws on the bridge side to raise or cut treble/presence.


The neck model is 8.5k/A5 and can be made with standard size screws if you prefer.
Options:
Splat Option**................................................... $15 per pickup. 
New Looking Nickel or Gold Cover...................Inquire via phone or email
RS Relic Aged Nickel Cover...............................$30 (yup, RS just hiked their prices, sorry)
12-screw “Sweet Heat” option............................$5 (the effect is a bit sweeter/smoother sound, and the ability to
                                                                             adjust midrange up and down with the second row of screws
)

4-conductor.........................................................NO CHARGE

F-spacing ............................................................NO CHARGE
FOR BASIC PICKUP PRICING, PLEASE CLICK ON HUMBUCKERS ON THE MENU AT THE LEFT

**The Splat is a means of getting a beefier option to the typical wimpy/slicey split humbucker tone.  One coil is tapped part way so when you throw the switch you get all of one coil plus part of the other coil for a bigger, more authentic "single coil" tone.  For example, if you had an 8k pickup, instead of the 4k split that sounds like a mosquito on a good day, you could have 5.5k, 6.0k, 6.5k or anywhere in between.  Though I will likely make some recommendations for what's best for what you want, the exact spec is up to you...
