Alnico III: will provide a blanket of warmth for your pickup, giving it a slightly softer character.Single coil 5 string soapbar bass pickups.These pickups use the same large magnet load as our hum canceling Fat Stack however, without the extra stacked coil found in the FS, the Big Single’s wind is able to take up the entire space of its bobbin, resulting in a super packed coil that works as the distributor of the monster tone these pickups have come to be known for. The Big Single is a single coil pickup packed into a soap-bar cover that can hardly contain the force their fuzz facilitating, flesh flogging flock of fibrillating inflection. The player should expect to wrestle with the repercussions of this pickup’s roaring aggression and bludgeoning bawl of extreme sonic salubrity. To this day, the story of the Fat Stack’s conception along with its unique tone makes it one of our most endeared models.These pickups are hands down the tonal giants of our bass pickup arsenal. When he returned, Carey beheld a new, scaffolded pickup design infused with angled poles and the ability for split-able installation. Nordstrand was gone for about as long as it took for Stew McKinsey to tear up a savage funk line. So a few of our more curious winding technicians tied a rope around his waist, and, with plenty of slack, lowered him into the portal we discovered when we accidentally cut a hole in the sonic continuum with our in-shop industrial laser. Years ago, Carey Nordstrand, the shop Admiral, was getting antsy to find yet another application for his angled pole design. History: The creation of this pickup comes from a tale of sonic excursion and exploration. Wax-potted to contain any unruly frequency that may attempt to desecrate your desired tone.Standard spacing is 18mm ctc at the bridge.Available as a single neck or bridge pickup, or as a set.Stacked humbucking 6 string bass pickups.This will result in a meaner version of the large tone these pickups deliver-albeit with 60 cycle noise that single coils inherently possess. When the third lead is shorted to ground, only the top coil will remain active. Essentially, this is a turbo switch that will propel your tone to the point of bludgeoning aggression. *These pickups are shipped with three conductor wire for a split-able installation. Due to the naturally occurring lower output of its design, these pickups benefit greatly from a pre-amp with 3 or more db of gain. The Fat Stack presents a range that cascades across the sonic spectrum, providing a present but pleasant high end, a detailed midrange, and full-bodied low end. However, with the FS's stacked coil design, its tone is inherently darker, bolder, and fatter. This results in a fatter tone that is somewhat reminiscent of a J style single coil. The traditional bi-pole magnet layout was rotated 45 degrees, increasing the size of the traditional J style coil by 50%, making the coil wider and instigating the growth of a larger magnetic aperture, facilitating the capture of each string's unique harmonic characteristics. These are a proprietary Nordstrand design, born from the angled pole prospects of the bossman himself. Brand new, these are $320+ and the wait time for these are months due to the supply chain shortage. Single Coil mode and Humbucker mode are very versatile. You can use the non-exposed hole pickup covers for your choice of aesthetics! The tone of these pickups are incredible.
