T-Armond™ Neck Pickup - DeArmond Mount
Our version of the original DeArmond 2000 pickups are more controlled in the high frequencies, taking away earth shattering ice-pickiness while keeping that "off-the-rails" attitude that these pickups are known for. Of course, at lower gain levels they sing with unmatched fidelity and clarity. Tom designed our T-Armond set after Brian Setzer's '56 Silver Jet that was used on his Dirty Boogie album. That guitar spent many hours on Tom's workbench over the years.
Tone/Characteristics
The T-Armonds are in a league of their own with crystal clear highs, bellowing lows, and a tastefully controlled midrange. They perform really well with and without a lot of gain. Some say they sound like tele pickups on steroids.
Output/Power
DC Resistance is not entirely an indicator of true pickup output, although it can be helpful.
Bridge: DCR - 11.8k / Inductance - 4.56H
Neck: DCR - 7.8k / Inductance - 3.38H
Installation:
The DeArmond Mount is a direct drop-in replacement for any guitar with standard sized Dynasonic/DeArmond 2000 style pickups. This pickup comes with two pieces of foam shims for height adjustment. DeArmond Mounting Screws are sold separately if necessary.
