Our GVT single-coil pickups have been meticulously reverse engineered from 1950's PreCBS - and Holy grails pickups.We totally handcrafted original Pre CBS pickups from the '50s and' 60s. They deliver a 100% vintage pickup tone to your amp with full warranty. It's been many years of work back after seeing first hand hundreds of Pre-CBS guitars and other models like 1957-60 Les Paul, SG and hollow bodys. Let's go over there! We also have NOS stock, if you are looking for the best authentic microphone this is your place.

The sound of the soul, let's take you to the past! Because without a soul you will have no tone!

The magnetic wire

As a magnetic thread collector we have a NOS stock but we also have magnetic thread formulated for us under our specifications as Heavy formvars FW1177 Pre cbs and Plain singles varnished with the same process as in the 50's.

Scatter wound - hand wound

We work with 3 manual winders, one by one, in the last 20 years I have been able to study deeply the old tones as well as their influence on the winding. 

All our pickups They are built with soul from start to finish, from the fiber board to the last magnetic pole, it is our formula, the old school.

The soul of Magnet

A magnet, on its importance is very influential in the sound of our pickup. We have compared images from the 50s, 60s and 70s noting their magnetic charges and developing guidelines for each charging model manually one by one. We use old bar magnets and others built for us, we load them with our gaussed range where we have gotten the best memory of yesterday for vintage sound enthusiasts
