“Spooky Iola's”

This set is a spookier version of the Iola’s set, it features a “Fred’s” neck pickup paired with the hottest version of my “Woodies” bridge pickup, the “Woody++”

”Freds’” Neck - Alnico 5, .187”x.471” magnets, wound to 7k3 with 42awg plain enamel magnet wire, right in the sweet spot of what ‘58-‘62 JM neck pickups range. Lacquered black bobbin, aged poles.

“Woody++” Bridge Alnico 2, .195”x.471” magnets, wound to ~9k7 with 42awg plain enamel magnet wire. Lacquered grey bobbin and aged poles to match the “Fred’s” neck with covers on.

This set has the warmer late 50’s neck pickup tone with lots of chime, dynamics, and character paired with a bridge venturing into the middle ground between JM and Mosrite tone. It has some bark to it, and lots of spooky spy/noir/spaghetti western tones on tap. Great set if you want to balance out a surf band with a brighter JM or Jag sharing the stage, or perhaps if you are just a little on the spooky side.
