Planet Tone pickups are 100% Hand Made in America providing musicians worldwide with high quality boutique hand crafted pickups. True vintage scatterwound pickups!
The Heritage Series are wound to provide that true vintage blues and rock tone that we have cherished from so many in the past.
While the outputs may vary slightly, the tone is that extremely warm, creamy, clear and sparkling tone with that thick humbucker feel. It’s the tone on the vinyl records that so many of us grew up with! 😉
Each set is varied slightly to capture our tribute to so many great players.
Blues Heritage Set
Think: Gary Moore, Albert King, Freddie King, Eric Clapton (Beano Album)
The Blues Heritage is designed to capture a pure vintage blues tone with an added power and drive from an Alnico V magnet. The magnet gives the pickups just a bit more punch, mid range and vibrancy while keeping all that vintage warmth! Truly that cherished 60s blues tone!!!
The output is perfect for blues, classic rock and so many other applications. However, we wanted a pickup that delivered transparent and sparkling warmth that is so true of many vintage blues players. The wind and output is aimed for just a bit more on the top end which is great for leads and that superb woman tone.
Neck: 7.5k
Bridge: 8.5k
Southern Rock Heritage
Think: Duane Allman, Warren Haynes or Dickey Betts
While the set is truly applicable to so many styles of blues and rock play, this is our tribute to these great musicians. The set offers more mids for that “swampy” blues and rock feel. Great vintage warmth, nice humbucker bite with a sweet mid range to give it a nice rock vibe.
The pickups have a nice sparkle with a touch more mid range yet a very tight bottom end. These pickups are great for leads, jams, rhythms and melodies. The Alnico V magnets give it the perfect amount of drive for screaming lead work and extremely vibrant and sparkling melodies or clean chord work.
Neck: 8.0k
Bridge: 9.0k
