Stormy Monday humbucker
BUY ONLINE handwound just for you
The Stormy Monday is a sweet, articulate humbucker with warm bass, hollow mids and smooth high end that is extremely clear and dynamic.
Authentically vintage in both voicing and output, the Stormy Monday humbucker is completely handwound with vintage correct 42 AWG plain enamel wire and handcrafted with butyrate bobbins, calibrated sand cast Alnico II magnet, solid nickel silver baseplate and cover.
As with the early 'Patent Applied For' (PAF) humbuckers, the coils are wound asymmetrically for extended frequency response and touch sensitive feel. The Stormy Monday faithfully reproduces the tones of the brighter '57 and '58 era PAFs with smooth natural sustain, wonderful pick dynamics and string separation. Low notes have warmth and fullness; the highs are sweet and mellow while the mids are slightly scooped producing a soft, percussive vintage tone.

I received my Stormy Monday Neck pickup yesterday, installed it into my American pro telecaster this morning. I could NOT be happier! This pickup is just lovely. Exactly what I was hoping for with my tele. Anyways, I appreciate what you are doing over there, just thought I’d send some love your way. BTW, I was inspired to get the Stormy Monday for my tele from Paul Stafford Cook on YouTube. Cheers all
Just wanted to say how much I really enjoy my set of Stormy Monday's! The bridge especially is probably the most honest pickup I've ever played and it's just so sweet and bubbly! I could go on and on, but I'll end with THANK YOU FOR MAKING SPECTACULAR PICKUPS!
