The "Bell-Tone" pickup is a single pickup. Not a set of 3. This is because sometimes, artists want only a single pickup. Like the set of 3, it showcases the same tone, feel, and look of early 60's pickups (1959-1963). We use only period correct materials, and source quality magnets and brass eyelets for the bobbins and their final assembly. Each pickup is hand assembled. We hammer the brass eyelets into the flatware stock, sand the flatware and then press the individual pole-pieces into the flat-work; each stage requiring precise measurement, and assembly technique. They are then glued in place and cured before being wound and tested. If they pass our range of tests (pressure, trueness, stagger, and hardness) they are then wound, measured, hand-charged and potted. When potting the pickups - we use a mixture of both paraffin and beeswax to gain the properties of both types of wax. (Good coil saturation and durability.)
