Sonic '60 Mustang / Duo-Sonic Pickup Set - Mid-Range
Sonic '60 Mustang / Duo-Sonic - Mid-Range
Based on the design of the old Burns Tri-Sonic® Pickups for a richer single coil sound, the Mustang / Duo-Sonic Sonic '60s Mid-Range have been designed for a fatter, fuller, hotter, more mid-range, dirtier sound. With custom tooled chrome plated covers, my Creamery Sonic '60 pickups really do give a rich, versatile, grittier Mustang / Duo-Sonic sound.

Richer, Fuller, Fatter - Dirtier Mustang / Duo-Sonic Sounds
With handwound coils pressed around the custom designed magnets and wax potted in a combination of paraffin & beeswax, the Sonic '60 'Mid-Range' Mustang / Duo-Sonic replacement pickups give that richer, musical sound synonimous with the old classic Burns Tri-Sonic® design but in a new fatter, fuller, dirtier & grittier sound with more emphasis on the mid-range.
I designd these after feedback from players who loved the brighter standard Sonic '60s I made for them but wanted a fatter, hotter, more mid-range version in their 2nd guitar to compliment - Not everyone has two guitars so if you're looking for more mid-range to your sound, and want something a little different, an alternative to the classic bright Mustang / Duo-Sonic pickup, then maybe the new Sonic '60 'Mid-Range' pickups could be for you.
Whereas the standard Sonic '60s are wound with thicker 42awg coil wire and are available in a variety of Alnico magnet choices, I spent a long time on the new 'Mid-Range' 43awg versions and concluded, after much testing, that the stronger Alnico 5 and Alnico 8 versions worked best. You can choose either based on your own preference, Alnico 8 being the strongest with a little more output and more cooler focus whereas the slightly weaker Alnico 5 is that little bit sweeter but with slightly less attack.

Wanting these pickups to be something special I've had custom chrome plated covers manufactured. These aren't plastic covers, they're very thin brass that I've had custom tooled and chrome plated. I've also designed them with the Tri-Sonic® style oversize holes and more rounded/rolled edge covers for a unique look.
