Bare knuckle The Mule Set
Guitar Mania now features a LIVE stock status – if it’s showing as “1 in stock” then there is indeed one set of these in stock.
This is for a matched pair of pickups, Bridge AND Neck.
Here at Guitar Mania we are one of Bareknuckles first shops and the staff just love them. We honestly think these are the best pickups in the world. Bareknuckle have a pickup for everything: Jazz, Blues, Metal, Rockabilly, Vintage Rock n Roll etc. These ‘Mule’ pickups work extremely well as a great UPGRADE to your standard Gibson Les Paul pickups, in our opinion.
Here’s specific specification of this particular set of pickups:
Screw bobbin colour: Black
Slug bobbin colour: Black
Coil Potted: Yes
Led Length: Short (1/4″)
Conductor: 4 (can be coil tapped)
Pole Screw: Nickel
Cover finish: Nickel
Cover type: Covered
Spacing 53mm (most common wider spacing for PRS and most guitars will also fit standard Gibson / Epiphone etc, despite what Bare Knuckle say the 50mm is almost too narrow for Gibson and Epiphones)
MOre info on ‘The Mule’ from Bare knuckle:
The Mule has a classic ‘Patent Applied For’ vintage tone with exceptionally balanced frequency response and more than enough power for almost any application.
The Mule humbuckers are built and voiced as faithful reproductions of the best sounding late ’59 PAFs with a differing number of turns of vintage correct 42 AWG plain enamel wire on each coil. The result is outstanding clarity and extended dynamic range. The solid nickel silver baseplate and cover are exact replicas along with the butyrate bobbins, maple spacers, nickel-plated slugs and Fillister no.5 pole screws. Sand cast Alnico IV magnets give The Mule faster response in the bass, fuller mids and better control in the high end. Even at low levels of gain, smooth harmonic feedback which is full of overtones is possible, while clean sounds have depth and unmistakable vintage character. The idea of these pickups is to have a vocal tone that’s expressive and clear, while driving amps commandingly into overdrive when required
