Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between 4-conductor and standard wiring on the SE model?

The 4-conductor SE includes separate coil leads, enabling series/parallel switching and coil-splitting depending on your guitar's electronics wiring. This adds tonal versatility beyond a standard 2-conductor setup.

Can I buy just the bridge pickup from the Raw Nickel set separately?

The Raw Nickel set is sold as a matched pair with neck and bridge pickups. If you need only one pickup, the SE Nickel 4-Conductor is the single-pickup option.

Which is better for metal—the SE or the Raw Nickel set?

The Raw Nickel set is specifically listed for metal and designed with aggressive midrange clarity and controlled punch ideal for high-gain play. Both use Alnico 5 magnets and hand-built construction, but the Raw Nickel set's matched impedance is optimized for metal tone.

Do these pickups require special guitar wiring or electronics?

The SE Nickel's 4-conductor wiring requires a guitar with switching electronics to unlock series/parallel and coil-split options; otherwise it works as a standard humbucker. The Raw Nickel set works with any standard humbucker guitar wiring.
