Cthulhu - Humbucker

$180.00 Sale

Pronounced "Ka-THOO-loo.

In other words, this pickup is a monster. Heavy…articulate…dynamic. Only you can decide if you are ready to face one of the "old gods."

Designed for pure, high gain mayhem with its special wind of modern super tough poly copper wire, dual rows of low carbon steel slugs, sand cast AlNiCo 8 custom magnet in the bridge, AlNiCo 4 in the neck and blackened parts darker than facing eternity on the precipice of forever!

And that is dark. . .

Also, it comes in any color you want, as long as its black. (Just Kidding!)


Neck 13.9k DCR

Bridge 16.3k DCR


Compatibility

Fits any guitar with standard humbucker routing — Les Paul, SG, ES-335, "S" style, and most other double-humbucker guitars. Available in standard and tremolo (trem) spacing.

Wiring Guide

Not sure which wire type to choose? Four Conductor is recommended if you want coil-splitting or coil-tapping capability. Vintage 2 Conductor is ideal for traditional wiring with no switching mods. Check our wiring diagram page for wiring instructions.
