Many bridge Humbuckers today are wound so “hot” that they literally drown out the Single Coils when switching, disrupting the guitar’s musical balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur new \u003cstrong\u003eCleartone \u003c\/strong\u003eHumbucker is our workshop’s elegant solution to this very problem. During development, the focus was not on maximum output, but on tonal balance and absolute transparency. Of course, we cannot and do not want to defy the laws of physics - by design, a Humbucker will always be slightly louder and fuller than a traditional Single Coil pickup. However, the Cleartone is so finely tuned that this natural difference remains within an entirely musical range. It delivers the singing, round character and solid foundation of a true Humbucker, yet blends harmoniously into the instrument’s overall volume profile rather than dominating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite its more moderate design, it certainly doesn’t lack assertiveness. As the name suggests, it shines with fantastic string separation and tremendous clarity, and responds extremely sensitively to playing dynamics and the volume knob. This allows for a seamless transition between pickup positions without any jarring level changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe coils are, of course, hand-wound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AmberPickups","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57918055612803,"sku":null,"price":219.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/9386\/5347\/files\/DSC04860.jpg?v=1778234890","url":"https:\/\/amberpickups.com\/en\/products\/hb-cleartone","provider":"AmberPickups","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
