Filtertron Style Humbuckers “Swing-O’s”
Humbucker sized Filtertrons from The Creamery
After looking at modern variants of the old Filtertron style pickups, and wanting something a little ‘brighter’ I came up with these - introducing the ‘Swing-O’ - Humbucker sized Filtertron style pickups. A reduced number of offset winds on each coil provide the extra brightness. The Alnico 5 magnets help keep the attack but being stronger due to their 1/4” height, the magnet boosts the output of the lower windings on each coil to give great volume & brightness. A real spank & twang to these Humbucker sized Filtertrons. The H-gate chrome covers give that ‘retro’ look.
