Firebird Vintage

$100 - $345 (Pricing varies depending on options chosen)

Onamac Windery's Vintage tone Firebird mini humbuckers.

They are ballsy and yet remain clear thanks to the powerful bar magnets, one in each bobbin along with the sheet metal reflector plates.

Seemingly insignificant little pieces of metal the reflector plates have much to do with how Firebird pickups sound. One plate covers the bottom of the bobbins connecting the two magnets creating a larger more powerful magnetic field.

The second smaller strip is on top of the bobbins located below the "B" string area also connects the two magnets creating a powerful magnetic field in the treble string area contributing to the signature "bite" Firebird's are known for.

Thought of as unimportant the reflector plates are left out of many Firebird replacement pickups and their tone reflects it. (Pardon the pun)

Like Onamac Top Shelf humbucker line these are made with all the usual good stuff; our own alnico 5 bar magnets, 42awg plain enamel coils, maple spacers, custom made reflector plates, nickel silver base plates and covers in your choice of finish. Sets include new mounting hardware.

This set is the classic"Firebird Vintage" they are wound to 6.3k and 6.8k. And for those who want even more check out the hotter "Firebird Vintage Plus" set.

Yes three pickup sets are available. Drop a note at "contact us" and we'll talk about what you need.
