Frequently asked questions
Which set is better for clean tones and funky rhythms?
The Cory Wong Clean Machine is specifically designed for clean, articulate funk playing with minimal noise and natural dynamics. The Everything Axe is voiced for rock and metal with a punchy bridge, making it less ideal for funky clean tones.
Do I need to solder these pickups into my guitar?
The Cory Wong Clean Machine is a pickup set only—you will need to wire it yourself or have a tech install it. The Everything Axe is a complete pre-wired pickguard assembly with the Liberator solderless system, requiring no soldering for installation or future swaps.
What magnet types are used in each set?
The Clean Machine uses Alnico 4 (neck and middle) and Alnico 5 (bridge) magnets for transparent, articulate response. The Everything Axe uses ceramic magnets across all three pickups, paired with wax potting to reduce noise.
Can I modify the tone later with either set?
The Clean Machine offers standard passive wiring once installed. The Everything Axe includes 4-conductor leads on all pickups, enabling coil-splitting and series/parallel wiring options for expanded tonal flexibility.
