Rock Paper Scissors

We came across many guitars (especially modded) with strange compositions of pickups. Usually these combinations were created out the need to be versatile.

Today’s standard triple single coil is composed out of 3 consistent parts (in their soundscape) so we would end up with an homogeneous set of pickups. However, in many cases we find this configurations limiting, especially for musicians that are actually looking for diversity in their instrument for all kinds of different scenarios.

This need gave birth to the RPS, a model that enables the player a lot more versatility with a unique soundscape in every pickup mode. yet, it is balanced (in volume between modes) and possibly the best choice for players that have only one guitar or use a main guitar for most of the time.

    It’s a cover. With color…

    Choose Flat for guitars with fretboard radius of 9.5" or above. Choose Staggered for guitars with fretboard radius 7.25". Contact us for Left-Handed staggered option.

    Choose "0" for original setting, "+5%" for higher output, warmer and darker tone, "-5%" for lower output, brighter and crispier tone.

    RW/RP preduces a hum-canceling effect in a combination of two pickups, but reduces mid-range frequencies.

    Wax Potting is done to prevent microphonic feedback. Unpotted pickup may produce feedback but have vintage like qualities and a brighter tone.

    Baseplates increase the inductance of the pickup, resulting in an increased gain and reduced high frequencies and shielding problems
