Some people will call these noiseless Mustang pickups but Kinman prefers to describe them correctly as Zero-Hum Mustang pickups. That's because there are 2 types of noise, Hum which is cancelled in the pickup and Buzz which can only be minimized by shielding the wiring cavities (refer to >Technical >Perfect Guitar >Shielding for newer guitars

Number of parts in this pickup: 31
Number of parts in regular single coil: 9
Number of parts in other brand noiseless: There are no other noiseless Mustang pickups with Alnico rod magnets. Kinman is the only one and that makes it the coolest Mustang pickup available.

Connection means available
- Bare wires for soldering.
Hook-up cable
- 3 conductors are standard. Cut precisely for the 2 stock Mustang positions (100mm).
- Custom lengths by request with Order.
Output Polarity:
- in-phase with all other Kinman pickups
- in-phase with Gibson and Copy humbuckers
- opposite phase to Fender Strat etc
Special features:
- we ground the magnets to prevent noise when finger tips come close to the magnets
- especially desirable when switched in series or reverse phase modes to prevent hum and eletrical buzz.
Pot & Capacitor values
- Best with 250k Ohm (measured), brighter and less punchy with 500k volume pot.
- Tone pot is usually the same value as the volume but for a little more top end brightness can be 500k, 1meg or a No-Load.
- Normal tone cap value of 0.022uF in 63 ~ 100 volt. Smaller value lessens the severity of Treble cut.
Magnet spread (E-1st ~ E-6th) for perfect string-over-magnet alignment.
- Neck - Narrow 49.5mm.
- Bridge - Standard 52.5mm (American models) & Intermediate 51mm for models that have a narrow 52mm bridge.
Magnet stagger:
- Improved magnet array to suit any fretboard radius.
Pickup cavity:
- American vintage Mustangs probably need the cavity floors at 16.5mm deepened to 20mm. This allows plenty of height adjustment range.

- 2 Silicon Rubber tube springs.
Covers - included
